Lol yeah it is.

I think this post refers to the old super rep: https://forum.replica-watch.info/forum/cartier/226982-cartier-santos-100-xl-gen-vs-rep-pic-intensive I do not believe it to be available at TDs anymore.

But that's not to say the newer Santos's aren't great. You can read about them here: https://forum.replica-watch.info/forum/cartier/7083469-2018-new-santos/page107 I think the consensus is that GF factory is overall best.

Yeah, I knew want he meant ????.
I Agree with him. The VSF 2020 126610 sub definitely deserves a first class or even a super rep slot. Only flaws I've found was the ever so slightly wider initial bracelet link, and slight inconsistent recessed SEL. Only a hardcore 2020 sub fanatic (mainly RWI members) would notice it with a THOROUGH inspection.

When being classified as First Class++ NWBIGs , do you judge when the watch new, or after a few years?

Because this is a plated watch, if it still consider NWBIG after a few years, then it means the plating is holding up pretty well, without tarnishing or peeling

For me, say a rose gold watch not worth buying in gen means it should at least hold up for a few years

Someone already mentioned it a page or two ago but I just wanted to second that the new DateJust from VSF is definitely NWBIG/Super rep in my opinion. There's been one or two extremely vocal people complaining about the lug sharpness (and they don't own the watch) but many more disagree. People are starting to get them in person now and they're living up to all the hype and factory photos.
