Lol.. Really? But only 3 of them, the gen 2220.80, gen Aqua Terra and rep Spectre are wearable. The other 3 all have broken crown stem. Weird really. Probably the weakest point on the older reps.

My rep 2220.80 I got on Ali for $95 3 years ago. The stem scares me to pull out but it winds perfectly every time. It is a fantastic watch for the price but I realise how lucky I am, at some level I have more time for it than my gen 2531.80. I sold my UPO V5 45mm that was the worst decision I ever made, I spent quite a bit on that one including a gen crown to sort the crown issues. V6F AT is 4 years old and working like a train. I could never bond (excuse the pun) with the 300 Spectre. Your 2531 rep seems nice.

The 2531.80 rep was my first rep from around 2008. It served me for around 2 - 3 years before the stem broke. That rep got me into getting my first gen in 2012, which was the 2220.80. Some time between 2008 and 2012, I ended up getting both PO watches one in 45mm and the other in 42mm, both being a Bond watch in Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace respectively. The only surviving rep is my 3 years old V6F Spectre Seamaster. Still going well and is amazingly just as accurate as my gen Master Co-Axial Aqua Terra. I just hope the stem is made better this time around...

Paired this AT with a nice strap, I like it better than the original canvas one.

I'm assuming this is a Gen, and if so is this the quartz or mechanical model? This was the watch that started it all for me.
Yep it is gen. It is a real classic. This is the 2531.80 the 41mm automatic version.
