Enjoy it mate, 114060 was my first gen too. Never getting rid of it. Elegant with a suit on & sporty with a denim shirt. Perfect!

Honestly I loved my V7 thought it was awesome until I had them side by side. From pictures yes they are close. But when you have them both in hand there is a difference. The quality of the steel, the bezel action, the brushing, SELs, the dial, the indices markers, and lume filling is white on the V7 instead of an off-white/cream on the GEN. Also there is a weight difference. I very happy with my purchase as I was planning to get one all along and had the fake as I was saving up for it.

Haven't got the hang of the quote bit on my mobile yet, many thanks for the reply. I'm planning to get the gen too and think I made a mistake by going to my local AD in Dubai and trying one on..I much prefer it over the 116610...but of course in Dubai they only had the full gold version ???? Because while I'm saving for the gen I have been bought to the attention of BK's...
quick question if you know the answer , would a gen insert fit on the noob v7? To be honest I'd only do 2 mods and that's gen insert and crystal. While I save for my gen...any help would be grateful. I'm more of a reader than poster but I'm getting cold feet since selling my gen omega Aqua Terra.

Hey sorry for the late response. I' m not sure if the Gen insert would fit the V7. I remember seeing a post somewhere around here saying they were trying but could not make it work. However, I think they were trying to install the full Gen insert and bezel though. The tolerances were not the same to accept it. I'd be cautious of just swapping the insert itself since they are very fragile when removing them unlike the old inserts. Hope that helps. I had a BK V& while I saved for Gen as well.

Here’s mine with gen dial and spongebob insert. I almost got my hands on a gen crystal 2 weeks ago but it got sold quick.

These watches are so clean, congrats on the gen OP!

Congratulations. It looks stunning. Enjoy it and wear it in good health.

I'm looking at getting a JF for now, but you've inspired me to keep saving for the gen!
