Wasn't modified to a A3185 for GMT master? Is it possible to turn it into a A3187 (considering the 2mm difference in the case)?

By the way I enjoy so much the gen macro shots, genuine is so well designed that even under the "microscope" looks perfect!

I'll give you one bit of advice. Never ever ever ever look at a gen under a loupe or microscope. You will find imperfections on every watch made even $300k Pateks. If you are OCD like me - DO NOT DO IT. LOL

You wont be able to enjoy your watch if you do especially on a gen. Once you see something or you know its there you will never forget and that becomes a very very expensive flip. Believe me I've lost over $30k this year alone flipping gens after doing this exact thing - And I think you know I own alot of gens. Well alot of Rolex gens at the moment anyway which I havent used a loupe on yet.

Well I don't have the luxury to own more then a couple of gens and I enjoy most taking pictures of them so macro can be really fascinating.. I get you 100% but fortunately I have not reached to that point of being too anal so I enjoy all my reps as if they were gens most of the times... Maybe after dealing with gens sometime you get to grow this habit that you examine everything under the loop, hope I will not get there for the reasons you mentioned lolol!!

How is the bracelet? Is it a dead giveaway? Any of my rollie bracelets have been dead giveaways when someone asks to wear or hold it...the safety part of the clasp just didn't have the bite/click of a GEN. That's why I turned to putting them onto NATO straps, and well NATO straps are bad ass too :)

One of the best, in-depth reviews I've had the fortune to read.

Well done.
