I got it from rainbowkin. I have handled a few gens and I have to say this is a reasonable replica. Don’t get me wrong, no one who knows of the datograph first hand would be fooled. The size is too big compared to gen, there is a Roman 12 and of course the subs are wrong. A big tell even when compared to those issues is the Un-decorated st19. The gen movement is absolutely stunning. This is literally the same as any other st19.
That’s a pretty a long list of cons... but the pros still out weigh them. First, no one knows what a datograph is, so who am I trying to fool? Anyways, I have no where to go or anyone to impress, so who cares? The case is wonderfully proportioned and the bezel is perfect. It’s an awesome break from all those 7750 chronos I have and even when compared to my st19s, this has a date. A chrono with a non-sunken date that isn’t at 3? Come on. That’s awesome. The case back, even when displaying the undecorated movement is extra wide and shows the entire movement. That’s not a common thing. The strap it came with sucks bad. But I have a supply of curved zic zac straps that fit and match the overall look perfectly.
If you are interested and don’t need the watch to impress at those cocktail parties, but instead like shiny things on your wrist, I highly recommend.
