The promo pic looks like the photo off the AP site TBH, so I don’t think we can take anything from that pic.

The gen is a limited edition of 1.
It’ll be hilarious when someone runs into anyone else wearing the same watch.

The one with the gen thinking:"AP has scammed me."
The one with the rep thinking:"Somebody else with a rep."
well, there don’t seem to be white gold boarders around the sub-dials, so at least that won’t be an issue.The gen is a limited edition of 1.

Forgetting for a sec the fact thats a one off pieceThe promo pic looks like the photo off the AP site TBH, so I don’t think we can take anything from that pic.

You’ll never run into a gen owner so that’s the bright side

Hmm… It seems like my eyes have super enlarged microscope vision
I see it and I just cant unsee it just like pizza hand of zf 15202
Love the great work by the way.
If there might be a modder, who can plate the subdial ring and make it look thicker, I would love to pay.
FYI
- I also believe this watch has great value for money , so not complaing
- Everyone has different point for ‘just can’t stand it’
- I would just love to find method to fix my painpoint using more money ( other than buying gen 26240 or gen dial, because I still think watch will prob be a little big for my wrist.)

The biggest tells for me for any AP reps with grand tapisserie pattern are the tapisserie themselves as they interact with light quite differently than the gen. There are some reps that react similar enough to light under dimmer lighting conditions though.Hmm… It seems like my eyes have super enlarged microscope vision

Regardless, just as he said, most people won't be able to tell the difference. However, this holds true even with most reps out there. Just don't expect to be able to pull it off in a watch boutique or an AP meet
Like I said before - for me ‘tell’ is really not my concern because people who know me - know my hobby is rep watch. I give watch a present to them too.The biggest tells for me for any AP reps with grand tapisserie pattern are the tapisserie themselves as they interact with light quite differently than the gen.

It… is purely my aesthetic desire to have smoky make up properly done on my watch friend
Same from I am the first to tell them its a rep regardless of who asks me...I am not here to show that I have a gen, though I can have a gen. For me the idea is to make its indistinguishable from the Gen ..get the mods etc thats the fun part of the hobby!Like I said before - for me ‘tell’ is really not my concern because people who know me - know my hobby is rep watch.

I was muchore concerned about the subdials until I saw a 26240 in the flesh. Photos don't really tell the story. Especially without a gen next to it.Hmm… It seems like my eyes have super enlarged microscope vision

Buying a $9,500 item from a seller with 27 feedbacks is a craazy thought.
