SkeletonTimes I owned this exact watch and threw it in the trash. It felt incredibly cheap when holding it in the hand. It's not worth the money at all. I am also unable to find any gen reference to this model. If you find any please share the GEN watch price and pictures with us but do not waste your money on the RED FM. The black one might be better but I have no idea. The ZF Vanguards are all super reps in my humble opinion

I couldn't possibly ask money for it. The red 'wood' is painted plastic from what it felt like. Just one of the worst reps and watches I held in my hand in ages. It is a fantasy model on top of it from what I know. Just looked for a gen reference again but nothing came up
Well... will take it for free off you.... ;-) So how long collectings reps? Joined here this month...

I’m assuming for you it felt cheap because of how light it is, the rubber strap, and carbon fiber feel/weight....I don’t really like metal watches, and I love carbon fiber with a rubber strap. This watch to me has everything I look for in a watch. I plan to buy the all black carbon fiber one as well once it is available. It’s hard for me to find a watch I like. For example another watch I like is the carbon fiber Red&blk Daytona Rolex. Also like SevenFriday watches. To get an idea of the styles I like. That being said because I literally only like about 4-5 watches I don’t mind spending a good amount of money for a watch I really like.

I hope you can proof me wrong but the red FM was definitely not carbon fibre. It was painted wood or plastic at best. If you hold a ZF RM rep or even an older RM55 that's light, it feels like quality. This one just felt like total trash.
Anyone found a GEN reference for it yet ?

I hope so as well lol I mean it’s about half carbon fiber, it has those red layers of some kind of material. I have some rings that have red material layered in with carbon fiber just like this watch, it’s called “Ceramic additives” but also have some that have red layers that glow which are resins. My point is that it could be one of those or something else that isn’t carbon fiber and feels like plastic which those materials do feel like. Only way to tell would be to cut it...idk if I would lol Or if I’m able to tell that it’s painted on...I am an artist I’ll be able to tell. Unfortunately I’ve never held a ZF RM rep, or anything close to this watch, so I won’t be able to compare
What do you mean by GEN reference? Sorry I’m new on here.
