Nice.

My only issue is the day font looks like the older BP style rather than all the GM versions we’ve been seeing on TD’s websites. Wonder if this will be consistent among all of their DD40s..

I have to ask... what’s the closest stainless band to gen? Huge differences/flaws?

Tried to get some pictures but it's already nighttime and little too dark inside the house. I'll take some better pics tomorrow

Yours is the first GMF I've seen with the BP day wheel. Here is a re-post from earlier in the thread

BP and GMF are partner factories, like JF and ARF. BP does 316L GMF does 904L (or so they say, lol).

These look to be very similar to the BP line. The day wheel fonts look slightly different, individual letters are not so wide and the serifs are not as pronounced. I have long preferred the BP day fonts over Noob, though they are not exactly like gen. These new GMF day fonts look closer to gen to me. Although they look more plain than the BP fonts.

BP daywheel fonts

Yeah, it seems like my watch has the BP datewheel. Not a big deal for me, I kind of like the BP font better anyway. Plus the watch is a stunner as is!

Agree bro, I actually prefer the old BP day fonts to any of the others, including the gen. This is no rep to show around a gen or a knowledgeable gen person anyway.
