The caseback stamps on reps are wrong quite often. 16600 is a regularly misused number. I don't even bother to look at those anymore.

Noob 116613 LN with another common incorrect caseback stamp

Fk don’t tell them that, the noobs will be asking TD’s the weight at QC now rejecting 4/5 watches until they can get closest to gen weight

Just take out the rotor and put in a battery...bam! Weight problem solved. LOL

It's almost as if 'SWITZERLADN' is deliberate, as a joke. I mean, once you see these things you cannot unsee it, I'm going to notice this everytime I look at it for the time.. and when i'm out for dinner, the waiter is gonna know it's a rep as soon as he sees the 16600 on the inside of the caseback.
I don't mind a couple of flaws/tells, but one so obvious that literally everyone can see it (lol) is just being silly. Then the misspelling, that's a either stupid or deliberate mistake.

I think I can forgive the watch though, I'm looking forward to it, even if the gold is the wrong colour (tbc), it's not as if i'll be wearing it often, it's just for looking at / playing with really and dreaming about what it must be like to have to real one..

Looking forward to actual wrist shots when the first ones are delivered... Not too optimistic about the gold color accuracy, TBH

Oh boy these look NICE!

Now let me see.. £30,000 or £330 + shipping? Hmmm.. I just can't decide.

Silly question from me.. Should the tube and spring bars be 18k on this model?

Actually, having seen these on Reddit and again here, the gold does look a bit too yellow or something. Not sure if it’s just the lighting, wonder what people with more knowledge than me think as I’m conflicted now

That gold color is not accurate - even the lume plots look yellow.

I bet this is much closer to how it actually looks

The Gold color in those is quite near the pictures of jtime and doesn't have that very yellowish tint on the last photos from reddit.
Wrist_Reps (the guy from reddit that made those pics) said he'll make some daylight images today but it seems he got stuck at lunch :D
