Opinions on my potential next AP

[Anakey]

So I'm looking to pull the trigger on my next AP. I've had awesome experience with our TDs so far and I really like the Perpetual Calendar models that have come up on a few of their sites recently, but is the sub-dial at 12 just to much of a tell?

I know this rep is not going to be true 1:1, and it's more of an "in honour" but I still really like it, the only thing holding me back is the sub-dial. Then gen has the two hands, and the only reps our TDs have up have a single hand in that 12' sub-dial, so my question is, would this be to much of an obvious tell for you to pull the trigger? - just looking for some opinions here, thanks in advance

It's a nice looking watch and I also love the Perpetual Calendar, but I think personally the missing hand would end up annoying me too much.

I would not buy it they look a lot cheaper than on the pictures check this:

Looks not really like an expensive replica.

Thanks both. Yeh, going to have to think on this one. I still like it, just not 100% set on if I can overlook the missing hand.

Other flaws are the thickness, few mm extra; sub dials positioning, should be closer to the rehault; the second hand should be weekly indicator and must be the closest hand to the dial, now is the top one. Considering the all mentioned flaws and the price of the gen RG blue dia 265740 70 000 USD that watch is bang for the buck. It is in my purchase list, probably the next one.
Good luck with your purchase

It has a moving second hand which is the biggest giveaway also.

Yeh, I do see it more as an in-honour and not a true accurate rep.

Thanks @tanto I do really like the look, this one is going to be a pain to decide on. How do you personally find yours in terms of look/wear?

Its not a true rep/super rep, no... but Its JF quality and looks and feels really nice, the blue dial is gorgeous and together with the YG case, Its great... also feels quite comfortable to wear, even that Its a bit thick and a bit heavy... but probably not so thick compared to many other watches like Panerai etc... Im just used to thin watches and would wish it was thinner. Hope you find my answer usable... Otherwise feel free to ask me if you want to know more
