how do you monitor CICO?
I’ve had bf testing done. It gives you a base BMR / RMR. I track calories in for 2-3 weeks and monitor weight vs expenditure. Eventually you figure out total daily requirements and from there can go up / down depending on goals.

My friend the green dial is APSF and the blue is DP! The guys is pointing out 3 to 4 MAJOR differences did you notice? Click the AI function on the bottom right to see the translation in English.

I'll have to watch it on a larger screen. I was on my phone and couldn't really visualize what he was pointing at.

I know people have had issues with their ceramic bracelets, but what about the ceramic case? Any issues with chipping, damage, etc?
No case issues yet
My other ceramic cases have all been fine too

I think the only chip I’ve found is at the edge of a strap screw hole from me or the previous owner being careless with a screwdriver. (Panerai / AP ceramic diver)

Thank you - super helpful.
I was watching the video and was thinking why the hell green dial still has subdial ring issue like APSF

I Think at this point, It might be proper to open a dedicated thread regarding DP 26240 dial.

Anyways.

I think sub dial ring is much better on DP, also some of the minor stuff on DP Too.

For blue color. It is always difficult to compare color hue with different light however I think apsf color hue is darker than gen and DP is brighter then gen. If I must pick a color that is more closer to gen, I think DP is little more closer. (personal opinion)

Tapessirie patter looks bad on both and square size seems bad on both. (Both too small)

I found another comparison video of DP green and APSF green dial and he said the the APSF was MUCH darker while DP was visibly lighter so perhaps same is the case with blue dial.

It would be interesting to hear @legend's view on the two dials (I suspect both are distinguishable from gen, so pick what you like best, but would like to hear his view).

Recall from @MFK100 this photo of gen on left and rep in the watch, should help us determine whether the DP dial is worth it

I’m no expert and I’m very new to all of this. But…these look very similar to me. Am I wrong? Don’t rio me…I don’t know what to look for.

I feel like even most gen owners wouldn’t see the differences. I think rep owners are more knowledgeable because they’re looking at every little detail to see how accurate a copy is.

Do you think the average gen owner knows as much about all of the details?

The gen green dial is dark by its nature and gives a 3D sunburst effect under certain lighting angle . In addition to the reflection of the defined sub dial rings and indices. I think DP is still far from it the stock one is closer.
