No, seems just fine.

Dont bother too much with rehaut alignment. Its the dumbest thing in rolex watches to be worried about. trust me, even on my gen its not perfectly aligned. As long as the 12 hour marker is on mostly on the crown rehaut, its good enough.

oh pff thanks, so I should accept it then, this are the rest of the pictures. ( sorry for bothering its my first sub rep I only owned Tudor reps

Interesting no not at all mate. I dont care that a rep becomes so good that even I cannot see the difference. Gens have 1 thing that no rep now or ever in the future can replicate: the feeling you have that you have a gen.

You just cannot replicate that feeling. Every time you look on your wrist, you will know you have a rep. Every time you look on your wrist with the gen, you know that you have the real deal and get a bit proud and excited about it :)

Doens't mean I will quite the rep game tho ;) The submariner has always been my holy grail watch and I've worked hard and long for it. So that all adds up to the feeling that no replica can ever replicate :)



Plus the fact that my gen actually holds a huge cash value, increase in value currently, and can be used as currency all around the world :rofl: best investment i've made in a long time!

i had a omega deville gen and have a tag heuer 1000 gen, and im always a bit scared to get robbed or what if it breaks haha im just too careful with it. + the waiting list for the 116610ln is just not normal and I couldn't buy it second hand ever because I need to be the first haha

I think all in all, this will be the prime reason why we will never be 100% satisfied with reps. Plus of course the factories screwing with us so we keep buying. :D

But like the V10 is very good, last week I was at a lounge in Amsterdam ( W lounge ) and everybody had a Rolex which I highly doubt everyone to a real one and with all the reading I've done I wouldn't be able to spot the real or fake without an very close and steady look and a magnification loupe hahahaha

This is what I am talking about, everyone in Dam seems like they have a Rolex submariner. Lol. But again it's a very prosperous city with a lot of FinTech companies and Trading companies. So it could be possible that most of the watches you saw, especially in a place like The W are all Gen.

Man I would not have thought the Rep Game was so well known in Amsterdam!

I live in the UK but am trying to get a job in Amsterdam, proving to be quite difficult, I work in the Banking sector, but there are not a lot of opportunities for jobs over in Dam.

What do you do in the banking sector, you've not heard it from me but look at Ebury. They are growing insane and are one of the top brokers worldwide and in Amsterdam too

I work in Middle Office, Trade Support for Brokers, who specialise in Oil and other Commodities.

There are a lot of valuta brokers in Amsterdam, like Ebury and Monex and they have a lot of functions like you do yourself so It wouldn't hurt to have a look I guess

It's an easy DIY to fix the misaligned rehaut. Open the caseback and the loose the 2 screws on the movement holder and move it a little bit and voila.

I assume this requires taking out the crown/stem. If so, how fragile is the detent or whatever that locks the crown to the movement? I tried this with the 4130 daytona clone movement before, and I think I bent it to the point that I can't get the crown back.

You dont take the crown out for aligning the rehaut. Just dont force it too much, if you force it too much you will get crown issues.

Yeah take out the crown. Just press the little crown holder and pull it out. Very easy to do.
