I'd like to buy one, can someone tell me which factory produces the most accurate version? The annual calendar works as on the gen? Does it need resetting only once per year (at the end of February)? How big is the power reserve without winding the watch? What if I manually wind the watch, can I have a real 7 days power reserve? Someone can explain me this aspect? What about the movement, is it prone to breaking or is it durable enough? Thanks.

I gotcha mate.

Get the non-gold one, the LPP one, with a blue dial. Absolute stunner. Power reserve is about 6 days.

The annual calendar does not work as per gen. You have to adjust it yourself, which isn't bad at all. The movement is pretty solid and has never failed me. Watch out for issues on the crown during QC. Make sure it's steady and not broken.
