Hell of a first rep! Congratulations. Assuming you don't (through pure bad luck) get a DOA watch or similar, you're genuinely going to wonder why people would pay 20k when you can buy something so similar for a couple of hundred. And the addiction begins.....

Well very true, but we need to also remember that without the gen (and people who will pay $20k for them), the rep will not exist :hehehe:.
Your reasoning is true of course, in the context of purely the gen vs rep price and relative quality comparison. If I have to pick on the steel diver reps, I will just prefer a 2836 movement vs a 2824 or miyota one.

It is the 15710 and you are right - it seems to have the old ring - I just mailed Andrew from trusty about it. Didn't know there could be differences between the same "v10" editions from same TD/ factory.

Would be a bit sad to get the v10 with the old inner ring :(

The 15710 dive bezel lume construction is different from the 15703. It is flatter, font size and spacing are different and the borders are not as obvious.
So yours is visually correct the way it looks.

The only true cure for being OCD is to buy the gen. Guess how I found out lol

Member since 2014 and doesn’t know the QC rules... what is your exact concern with this Diver? A specific question would help


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sorry. As long as it seems okay in general. Its okay for me. I do not understand much. I just order the one with 3D shape. Apologies in advance.

As long as you find it okay, it's okay. You can't just ask for general opinions on your QC.

What he said.

Please Kevin Bo its your watch.. don't need the community to do QC for you, especially when this is a $400 rep watch.
It is not that hard to just learn what to look out for and do the QC yourself.
