Anyone care to post a picture of your rep Seamster 2254.50? It seems as if the markers are tinted a bit green on some pictures I have seen... How about some real-world pictures to help me decide between the 2254.50 and the 42mm Planet Ocean? Thanks, guys!

Ditto. I'm looking to buy the same rep.

Rep 2254:

Gen 2264:

I am guessing the rep is more green than the gen because when the gen is charged with sunlight it turns slightly green. Maybe they were trying to give the rep that appearance.

Hope the pics help.

Thanks for the pic, jmd33. I did end up getting a Planet Ocean (45mm), but I might end up getting this one also. It's really not that bad of a rep. He valve is off, pearl is off (expected), and the dial has its issues, but overall it's nice. I love the long sword hands! Nice watch!

I love both the rep and gen - on your wrist nobody can tell the difference (or cares for that matter). Whichever I wear people assume it's the same watch. I highly recommend it. I put on a new bezel since the pic was taken, so the pearl is now centered (but still not properly sunken). The PO is on my list too (maybe we should just swap your PO for my SMP every couple weeks ;) )

lol nothing like owning both PO and 2254! Modern classics. As a matter of fact, a used gen 2254 is definitely attainable and I will buy one eventually. How do you like your quartz version?

Personally, I prefer the quartz because I can just pick it up and wear it. About half my watches are quartz and both the autos and quartz each have their own features I prefer.
