No, a case of different is different from any angle, distance and lighting.

I agree with you 100% in that statement.

But that does not speak to the reliability of your evidence to prove it to any single person on this forum.

Your evidence is circumstantial and will not be allowed in this court. The jury is instructed to disregard the unreliable photo evidence when making their decision.

Unless you have any further testimony I am throwing this case out of court and fining you for being really annoying.

Good day

See if you can find a Rolex autowind part for a good price, I think there is one on m2m right now

I dont' think I'm going to spend more money on this rep or, better, if I keep it I just want a service in few weeks without any mod.
I know where I'm writing now, and I hope everybody will understand, the watch is gorgeous, but the problem is in my head, I probably don't like the idea to have a fa...ops...replica!
So I go and see if I find a good price for a gen, I think few days, and then I decide whether I keep the rep and just service it or simply try to sell it and buy a gen...
It's just my head!

Unless it’s a watch that you hold significance and will keep forever, I suggest the replica with a service

I'm sorry !!! I do not want to disturb anyone just to help.

Unfortunately, I do not look Gen for compare I owned Explorer 1 mk1 that leads to the same op39 case.

My father did not understand the differences with either, but in my hand I explained it, and now it has done.

I am going to say that i am just trying to help the person who does not feel the difference. Never mind, I am sorry.

different batches, slight mistakes etc. - and after alot of annoying posts i think you have a point. i can also see and feel a difference between the bp and the arf, bp more "genlike"....arf not as curved as the jf from the photo above..

pretty much at this point...

If you are referring to the last pictures, no.

​That is comparative Gen Explorer Mk2 vs Jf Explorer 1 v1.

ARF has better case, better bezel, better bracelet and v2 dial.

About numbers 3 and 6, he can help us Seefeld

I cannot say if the dial has been corrected or not, imho it is too similar to the gen, judge from pics I posted... anyway service and pics of the job ready in a couple of weeks

​I did not look much Instagram 214270.
​Surely if there are detected, they are fast.

​​​​​If you are worried about the differences of you ARF and GEN I leave a video here where you are all:

https://m.youku.com/video/id_XMzgzM...0200000000000__214270&_rp=1543482158677xjuzJa

The language is Chinese and I understand nothing but the pictures are very good.

Thank you Tete, very interesting video. There's no difference to my eyes, except the rehaut. I've checked the rehaut of a gen DJ I have (first time I check it in 10 years), and there's a difference in the engraving. But imho you just have to keep both gen and rep in your hands to realize there's something wrong.
I'll be more precise after the full service I'll do in 10-15 days, but I'm happy with this arf explorer.

Okay. Now I’m going to call you out, because I know these “” were directed towards my earlier comment.

You are being a dick and tainting this thread with your attitude.

Please stop, it’s not fun anymore.

I am leaving the thread, maybe RWI too, it seems that people do not want to see the big mistakes of these toys or rather not see them and think it is "genlike"

Thank you
