A little better inside lol, thanks for the photos. The minute hand on your gen doesn’t look too much longer either but could just be because it’s between minute markers. Cheers

is it my impression or is it really true that the rep bracelet is much tighter than the gen?

this is my on telegraph

opinion for the colors?

I have always been thinking the CF 116710BLNR would be the best bet. But now with the fat lugs issue, wonder if it is correct for the 116710?
KJ2020 any idea on this?

7 days into shipping. I’m so stoked to get this watch despite what the ney-sayers have going on. When it’s 1/20 the price ya gotta live with some flaws

Maybe because of the protective sticker keeping it tight lol

This is my gen,

I just read someone who posted photos of a gen versus CF, colors looked very different, but on your photos I find it very close to the gen

Cheers!

So outdoors in natural light it looks pretty off. Whoever owns the gen and the rep…. Is there any angle in natural light that the colours look similar or is it done and dusted lol. More angles and in different light would be helpful to understand the range we are dealing with.

Here are some other comparison pics posted earlier in the thread and some closeups extracted from them.

I take a HUGE amount of watch pics and am frequently surprised at how different colors on a watch dial or bezel can look in a pic versus how my eyes perceive those colors.

Plus people perceive colors differently, and cameras are all different. So especially with Rolex ceramics, what you see in pics is not always what you get. Real Rolex ceramic reacts very differently to light than rep ceramic does.

Yeah camera and lighting make a big difference however different in shade it might be from the genuine versions. The gen crystal has made a good improvement in both black hole and overall clarity making the dial pop a bit more too.

I am using gmf bracelet on the gen. Keeping the gen in pristine condition. I did put clean jubilee bracelet on my Gen blro and it fits much better!

While some see this as a bad thing, I say for $500 or so you have an amazing looking watch! For the record, call me crazy but I happen to like the coloring of the rep better than the gen in this pic.

I think CF is going to use the same source for cases (per batch) on all 5 of their models. So any slight fatness in lugs for the 126 models would be a plus for the CF 116710 BLNR.

From all the QC and gen pics we've seen, I think the lugs should not be a perceivable flaw for most of us, whichever CF model is chosen.

 

[dont watch me]

Hi guys this is my first ever post. Good luck to me. Lol.
Basically Ive ordered a clean factory pepsi from j time and now I'm in two minds on wether to change for a VRF max. Not sure what to go for as these latest posts have kind of put me off the CF. Are the lugs on the vrf the same chunky ones as the CF? Can anyone compare the two different watches or post some pics please?
Thanks.

VRF max is best OOTB at the moment

I feel the same way about my ROF insert colors. Both the red and blue are brighter. Gen is gen of course and that insert can't ever be replaced by a $20 rep insert (REAL value). But that doesn't mean you can't be completely happy with how your rep looks to you.

I would not have settled on either of the gen insert colors if I was in charge of the final QC decision at Rolex. I really don't prefer any of the gen versions MK 1, 2, or 3. Obviously Rolex didn't either or they wouldn't have kept changing them.

We each must define for ourselves what perfection is on a given rep before we can gratefully stop chasing it.

VRF Max. Love this watch. In Real comparison with my neighbors gen you can’t tell the difference of bezel inlay, if you don’t look with a eagel eye.
