Looks Good. What about the coating? Yours seems to have the Blue ar?

well i just received it yesterday and immediately swapped out the crystal for a prof 2xAR (crystal diameter is 35.50m for those interested - had a spare from 3789 top gun, same dimensions)
also changed to Gen IWC kevlar strap which is much nicer than the rep

overall its a very nice rep - yeah in regards to the pyramid triangle - sorry Petruo you have no idea what you are talking about, go buy a gen if you are that pedantic, it is not noticeable and not a immediate give away..

Where can you pickup a 3789 crystal?

Petruo - its a prof 2xAR crystal they are pretty much colourless compared to the Rep crystal it certainly is alot clearer has maybe the slightest blue tinge
pippo - ive owned a gen heritage and loved it - very unique, gray titanium case, blue hands are amazing and the dial is vintage but i favour black ceramic watches so i prefer the topgun plus its a little bigger

Thanks! Did you just have to use a crystal lift removal tool like from this video to remove and insert the new crystal? (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Rd9m2EXqSA)
