Yes. It is, gen with no stickers as it has been well worn over the years.

This pic shows another gen vs rep thing that has seen not a lot of discussion. The gen markers / hands are white gold so they look most of the times bronze vs the rep markers being always silver / white.

Yup, as with all of rolexes gold. They have a slight yellowish tinge or shimmer to them. Harder to spot on hands and indices due to smaller surface areas and lighting conditions. More obvious on surfaces such as the dj41 fluted bezel.

If you are looking for the almost best modern rep Rollies, honestly VSF is the only way to go despite there are strong contenders like CF and ZF

I received my CF bracelet for my 126610LN today and it does have slightly better SELs, and better clasp with smaller gap. Very minor improvements, but exactly what I was looking for.

My VSF bracelet and a 21mm Jubilee will be listed for sale soon on the forum, PM me if interested.

Finally my litte VSF franken.

AWO clasp from my GMF 116610, closer to gen than 7GJ.
Gen hands, really the 3D effect is a Big difference.

Lumen of gen hands and VSF dial is just the same.

This "catfish" thing is way over rated, I don't have a Gen 116 but my Gen SD43 gap looks bigger. Go figure...

Can anyone confirm that the SEL and bracelet for 126610 are both 21mm please?

Yes the SELs are 21mm. The bracelet is tapered of course.
