Any thoughts on this?

Rep or gen guys?

I'd say rep, because if it was a gen whoever took this pic would want to show the engraving.

Rep

Based on what, exactly?

It is rep, of course.... But i'm curious to see what members actually know about this under-rated piece....

I own gen and rep, plus gen 55mm FD - this one will be super franken'd in time, and has already been fitted with gen rotor (pictured) and silver movement screws to replace the standard blue rep screws (the 2 single biggest tells of the watch overall, IMO)

build quality is fantastic - easily as good as gen (with the exception of movement holder and inner case detail.... In fact, case stamping and etching is better (ie, crisper / more even and eligible) than gen!
