VIV54 I know there are certain watches that also should be on the list but I don't have edit privilege. My own Omega Aqua Terra came out recently and should also be on the list.

Yes mate, also the spectre one. Almost every Omega model VSF produced this year is close to a super rep than ever before. I'm praying that they will release a Speedmaster professional clone in the future.

Couldn’t agree more with the Aqua Terra, it has been well discussed in the Omega section and the conclusion is clear!

Here you can see same weight as gen:

Gen vs Rep:


And here you can see that the end links not folding properly which for some people was a obvious tell it's also in gens, so no flaw at all.

Let's don't forget that the movement is a clone movement and has the same features of the gen (power reserve, indipendent hour hand..)

Now you have all the material, IMHO silver numbers one is definitely a Super rep, it's up to you decide if orange numbers, too.

The only major and quick giveaway would be looking at the balance, maybe it's me but I also notice the rotor axle on the gen is more defined and raised higher and has defined sides that are polished. I am not quite sure why makers always get the balance. Easiest way for me to tell a clone apart from gen, based on knowing a gen movement.

Omegad Cant you remove the extremly oversized fontsize on page one? It is a PITA to load this thread on a mobile, if you just want to have a look at the list and have to scroll so many pages of this ridicolous big letters. The woth of the content does not scale with the size in which it is written.

This thread is amazing. Thanks to everyone who has made contributions!

it looks like the DJF Rolex Datejust 116234 is comparable to its ARF counterpart if not better. Hope we can see more reviews and get it on the list.

I'd argue the AP ROO 15703 JF V9.5 is a potential NWBIG, definitely more so than the V9 since it's done away with the open case back. Also, new texturing added to the dial! Not sure if the date font is correct though? If so, the only thing keeping it away from true glory would be the date font, but this could be modded by swapping it out. If it is wrong though, it would be mind boggling considering they had it right in the V9.
