The gens also have variations of the placement and alignment of "m" . Not saying you are wrong, just that we're giving Rolex a bit more credit than deserved when it comes to consistency.


Do you have A01 or S19/S29 version?

I played around in Photoshop and did an extremely crappy comparison. Since I only have an Iphone the photo of my own VSF 114060 sucks, but I stole an image from Jtime and compared it to a couple of gens at Chrono 24. I think the "m" is good enough, but then again the gens on Chrono 24 might be VSF. :D

Could you throw some examples of clean cf 114060 dials in that empty space so we can compare which factory is closest to the gen dials?

My point is that we need to define what "closest to gen" really means in this case, since there are a few different variations regarding the alignment and positioning of "m". On Chrono24 there seem to be at least three different gen 114060 dial/prints:

1. Close & high m (VSF-style)
2. Close & low m
3. Distant & low m

I believe this issue to be so minor that it really doesn't matter though. The difference between 1 & 2 is only visible with like 10x magnification.

Chrono 24 watermark, gen, 114060 "flying m"
The Hulk is ZZF, m is flying slightly but no more than gen?
The no date 114060, VSF, S19, "pre raid", the m is not flying.
The black dial date is a VSF 126610, Q66, "flying m"

Those 3 reps are mine, all photoed together, same light, same time, 2" apart.
They are a very conservative £32k's worth to buy in gen.
£960 I think in total, here, all M2M.
It's really not "why would you buy a fake?" it's "why would you buy a gen?"
