Yeah especially with a display case back like on the moon phase. Luckily the 5054 has a solid case back. I saw on WE they had one with a white dial too.

Is the case dimensions correct?
It must be too thick or too big?
I've never seen a credible patek rep on finish and feel.

Honestly, from the picture, the dial looks like plastic. The crystal could have really used some nice AR ..
And the gen has an officer's case back, does the rep have that ?

Ha. No the case size is 38mm, gen is 31mm. Not sure about thickness. The rep does not have the "Directoire" case. The dial has more depth than the pictures show, but it is not porcelain. It does not have push pieces to set the date and moon. Some, like me, will enjoy it anyway. Some won't.

Poorly there is no classy Patek super rep out there... They have to rep the calatrava or the ac I would buy them in a second!

They should probably rep an old gen closed caseback calatrava with either quartz or some very thin movement.
But those are gonna be around 34mm or smaller so I don't know if anyone would b interested.

Doesn't look too bad.
What's wrong with the seconds hand?

It's the sub dial...it's not smooth and has circular rings. Hard to tell and that's why it isn't too bad...but it drives me crazy. Also, I'm sure the real 5119 has a slightly thinner seconds hand...but hardly noticeable.

The gen is also thinner, single piece case, and heavier as its white gold.

Oh well they will never be able to rep it accurately anyway.
That one above looks pretty good for what is likely 1% of the gen.

Hi and welcome to RWI! Glad you found your way here.
Please don't post same questions in different threads. If you use a trusted dealer from rwi you won't get scammed. You need to do a bit of research to understand how this all works.

Please take some time to read the sticky threads in the new members area (all subsections), learn the basic forum rules and get some very good advice in the process. A number of questions has already been answered there, this is just an example:


As a new subscriber, you've already been directed to this thread, please read carefully and look through the linked additional threads:


Another good thread to read to understand where RWI comes from and some fundamentals is this:


Most of the information you need to know to start is there. If you're preparing to buy, read the stickies before ordering. When you're finished, you can continue learning by reading the stickies in all remaining sections. If it's stickied, it's important information.

If you intend to sell, read the sales rules and all stickies in the sales section with particular care and make sure you understand each single rule. Sales rules infraction is taken very seriously here. As a new member you are not eligible to sell. Using the sales section is a privilege, eligibility must be earned, make sure you know and understand how.

For anything else, feel free to reach out to @eBoy or me, we're happy to assist, advise, direct, explain. Don't hesitate.

This forum is a treasure trove of information and benefits from the engagement of all members who take their time to share their knowledge, help each other out and have some fun. We hope that you'll benefit and enjoy this platform as well as contribute positively to it.

Enjoy the forum.
