A fantasy rep is one that does not exist in a gen version.

Or, make things easier, take a video of the time setting and seconds hand running and we can tell if it's a 2836 or 2813

Seems to be only decorated some-what like a 3135. The gears look fake the free sprung balance wheel bridge is seems to just be covering the actual balance wheel bridge.

Just Google an image of an actual 3135, or even an SA3135 and you'll notice a difference.

It's an A2836 decorated to look like a 3135. Time set direction is wrong, gear placement is wrong for a 3135.

Forget about 3135 lmao.. even if it was real I would say huge shame on it wrong everything with 3135 .. u could use it to swap the movement.

Easy way to tell every time is there’s no movement clamps or spacer on a 3135.

let me chip in a little... in GZ, you can find reps of the reps. yes, that means you can find a rep noob etc etc. some are really good quality though.

Nah.. not rep of a rep specifically

Factories will just assemble the watches with parts like cases bracelets and dials acquired from various sources.

What I have quickly learned: If you love your watch, you have an awesome watch.
Yours looks really sharp! If you bought it in person in GZ, you probably have memories that most of us never will have the opportunity to get. Every time you wear your watch it should remind you of the super cool and one of a kind Watch City.

Enjoy the watch.
Enjoy the memories!
