I have a Clean Yachtmaster with a blue dial. This is an absolute top-notch rep that cannot be faulted! It doesn't get any better!

That's true it's much better than the first one I recieved . Btw ticket already submitted.You have to be kidding me, there is nothing wrong with that catch, I've seen gen Rolex far worse than that.
PS: take out a support ticket at The Help Desk to solve your multi-account issue please.
did you mod the bezel insert? does it look like more sand blasted?Here is my Franken build - CF Base, Gen Dial, Gen Hands, Gen Crystal & Gen Datewheel with VS3235 movement installed.
I have both the gen and this replica. The greatest tell is the yachtmaster inscription on the dial. While on the replica it is only clearly visible if its sunny or the place is very well lit, on the gen it is clearly visible even when it is kinda dark.
another level with gen xtal and dw.. bezel also is needed.. imo no need for hands.. clean nailed it...
You used the gen or rep gasket for the crystal to give the correct date mag?another level with gen xtal and dw.. bezel also is needed.. imo no need for hands.. clean nailed it...

Hello. Could you please compare the feel of the bracelet between the two. I have the CF and the bracelet feels cheap, like sharp edges and the weight but I haven’t tried a Gen on so I don’t know if it really feels that way. Thank you.Like I said previously in this thread, Rhodium is very close to my Gen!
Hi. How does the bracelet of clean compare to gen? Can the bracelet be a tell when someone holds it?

Agreed on the yachmaster inscription, it's noticeably darker when not well lit - an issue the EWF rep also has (but it's worse on EWF - as is the rest of the dial printing). The next greatest tell is that the reheat is nowhere near as polished, and the third is that the crystal sits far lower than the gen.
re the Q on bracelets, I can't tell a difference between gen and rep at all - personally.

It's certainly a very good copy, and suitable alternative to gen, but it would not be identical. With the Clean rep I would use the phrase uncanny valley - everything about it is 97% there but there is the 3% that isn't in a lot of areas: 'Yachtmaster' printing (too dark); rehaut polish (not polished enough); crystal height (too low); rotor sound (too loud); bezel insert (reactive to oil from fingers).
HOWEVER: If you didn't have a real one, I don't think any of the above would be noticed.
