To me it looks ok, any expert care to comment?
The movement is of course crappy but there are no options for smaller calatravas...

hmm the crown looks off and colour of dial as well perhaps?

The 9mm were very tempting. The ZF is not easily available and 1mm thicker.

Looks good!

About time!! I’m ordering this. I’ve been waiting years for a decent closed back rep of this. Is it perfect? No, but it’s very good from the front. I’m hoping they’ll also release the 5196P.

It’s now up on Trusty’s site, much better pictures. Dial colour looks good on the 5196G.

Dial color in the 5196R looks off to me. Has to be silvery grey as seen and described on Patek.com

Yep, the pictures do look it has a white dial (description says it so as well), but part of me is hoping that has to do with the usual overexposed photos by the TDs

At 268$ price

I won't expect it to be a Super Rep!

True, but having a 2813 they could have invested in quality. The 9mm are tempting.

Been wondering which factory made it. Anyone familiar with AIF?

This model has also caught my eye. Just waiting for some more feedback and reports before indulging myself haha

What is the exact problem with the crown?

Ah now I see But at a small diameters maybe it will not be a huge problem.

Somesay there is also a problem with the lugs and sides of the case. Any one seen it?
