AP ROO blackthemes: Gen vs Rep Comparison

[alvinado]

By Legend of Speed, reposted by alvinado.


One of the SoCal family owns a gen Black Themes... and although he will remain nameless, he provided his Black Themes for these comparison shots next to a Black Themes V2 secs@12 watch owned by me...
In the pics, the gen is the bracelet version, the rep is the rubber strap version....

This last shot is a comparison between the gen Black Themes versus a Ziggy lumed Slevin... taken to gauge the intensity of the lume versus the master's.... as my rep will be going for lume soon.

Hope you enjoyed the pics... and thanks to the fellow SoCal member for taking the pics..

WOW!! Nice. It's almost identical. If I wasn't told which is which I won't be able to tell the difference. Anyone care to point out some flaws?

 

[trksh-bzr]

wooow! I think the only visible flaw that I would see is the fat case back.... and I could definately live with that!!!! great post...don't we just love those gen/rep comparisons...

it is easy to see, the gen date is more to the right, this is why a gen dial will not fit on a rep movement. Another flaw is the position of the crown.

The squares on the dial look a little smaller on the rep and the numbers are also thinner on the rep but looks very good overall...!

mag on date isnt as big on rep

Hi guys,

Noticed that there is silver outline around the numeral markers on gen.
Just wonder if there is the same thing on rep? Can't see clearly on the pics.

The outline around the numeral markers is black, same on the gen and on the rep.It is the light on these pics, just look at my dial:

Thanks a lot Guru,

It's crystal clear to me now. Can't wait to get it.

Guru, I believe that the gen black themes does have the silver outlines around the numbers. I've seen it in person and you can also see it in gen pics online.

 

[Edgematic]

the gen indeed has silver outlines...

a pic for your reference:

 

[guru]

ok, I can see it now but depending on the light condition, my also look silver, but they are more on the black side.

Noob query- where is the best site to buy one of these?

Would it be here http://www.replicamake.com/product_i...oducts_id=1534? or would Puretime have the same product? I ask this as I have not purchased from replicamake before. Thanks

 

[Edgematic]

all trusted dealers can get this one, choose your dealer

Great pics. Very informative thread. The blackthemes just jumped up on my wish list.

I think the Black themes looks stunning on rubber!
