It's very unfortunate that they haven't started consistently shipping out SAs with the 2 piece baton (as per gen) yet. That, and the never quite perfectly aligned datewheel (though I know I could have had that part fixed) always got to me. When I can afford to get an SA again, I have a 3 part check list. Gen bracelet (just feels SO much better than the rep one), gen dial (you can pick one up for a decent price). Lastly, while I'm having the dial put on, get the date wheel aligned and the movement serviced. It may and up costing as much as a used gen PO, but it'll be amazing IMHO.
Damn, that was my first watch related post here in MONTHS. lol
