Why 40mm GF?
I remember I read this thread and the consensus seems to be that KOR is superior than GF in 40mm? Or I am wrong?

no particular reason. I just feel that the GF needs to be given a shot and from what I have read, the general consensus is that GF 40mm has the edge. I may be wrong

Question...

I decided to order the 35mm GF at Puretime.

After approving my payment there is no response anymore from Puretime. Mailed them 2 times with no success.

Should I worry about these guys?

Read these links and you will better understand the process of buy counterfeit watches and why it is not like buying from Amazon

I can’t see anything wrong with th GF and I will also going for it.

The engraving on the back is not perfect, the serial # is much too shallow. Other than that the printing on the dial is not as thick as the gen, but really would need side by side.

I think the biggest tell would simply be the engravings! So I say as long as you dont flip it over too often it is a super rep (imo)

Pic comparison between blue BVF and KOR. Was happy with KOR but BVF has a better bracelet and excellent finish. You be the judge:

Thanks for the comparison images.. these are very helpful!
My aim is to put a blue gen leather strap on a white face (large Santos).
In your opinion, it sounds like the KOR would be the way to go? Cheers

KOR is good but seems to me BVF is better. Also the miyota on the BVF does not make noise, at all. Weird. Another comparison pic and the thicknes, they are both 9.8 mm

Also, tried to switch bracelets to use only the better one on both at either time. Size wise they are compatible, but the locking mechanism won't stay put. Bummer.
