completely agreed - after buying 4 different reps from various TDs, I am yet to RL a watch. TDs very rarely miss. No one will ever notice the slight imperfections or imperfect timegrapher stats on your wrist. Also, do not expect Swiss-level precision from a Chinese factory no matter how good the factory really is - it won't beat 100s of years of expertise
Thanks for this post. As a new members I think that part of the journey is learning about the watch you are planning to buy and what separates it from Gens. Research should be done!
