True if they had bought the gen they should have got the dial colour right. However imo the current rep dial colour is better. If the gen was the darker colour and J12 delivered the milky grey colour I would probably be up in arms about the screw up only because I think the milky grey colour looks terrible. Yes I think the gen looks worse.

However there is no excuse for getting the dial colour wrong.

Also the date font on the gen looks too big for the hole.

The gen has creamy color changing to white silverish like the rep. While the rep has only the silverish white color.
I wrote a gen vs rep comparison here:

This is the creamy color that I am talking about:

Looks very nice indeed on itself, as I already said. Congrats Z!



The 44mm Panda dial color is wrong?! It's the first time I ever heard of it.

If the Schumi dial base is removable from the sub-dial/tach assembly like the GP dial, I see a modification solution to closing the gap between rep and gen dial color. Most GP owners have had to refinish the color of their dial, after all.

Good thing though ... the AP logo and lettering is now printed on a plate, the prototype had it all directly on the dial. I pointed that out while checking the prototype for the factory.

But anyway, hopefully there will be a dial fix and members / early adopters will get the chance for a free-upgrade.

I can confirm grey is to dark and incorrect finish.. Should be more metallic

Looks great! The dial color is def off, but I think it looks better than the gen... The thing that sucks is the date window is cut out too far to the right... That's the easiest way to tell which is gen and which is rep.

Gotta say great build quality, nice soft rubber, colours all look good a work well together even if the gray is a little dark the dial nice and detailed and even reasonably good lume!!

All in all I love it!!!

Wow that's pretty fast for EMS. I have an order from Ken that shipped the 6th and still has not showed up so I don't have high hopes for my Schumi order from PureTime coming quick via EMS either.

EMS usually takes 6-7 days for me it's not bad but when there are holidays it's annoying and takes an extra day to 3 days max. I thought it would be here today, but no update so I assume tomorrow. I hate the waiting so annoying
