I’m small fish compared to his other customers lol more of a pain in his ass really.
I'm sure you still a big customer. What I learnt is that for most of the modders, the Chinese market dominates most of their time. And most of the time they're also less picky lol

Yes btf hands are indistinguishable to gen. I don’t think clean is close though. Thoughts?
The new clean batches have very nice hands on the 520s.

See @domiffm 's new acquisition. Very beautiful hands. But not on Btf level, no.

Incredible how good the rep hands have gotten. Right is gen hands, left are btf.

Insane.
The difference is there, but is it really worth paying £600+ for a set of gen hands for that fraction bit difference 🤷🏼

It's not just a bit

The lacquer isn't as shiny, the shape is different, the shine is more intensive. I believe you can see the color difference as it seems the hands are wrapped with 14k whereas gen are 18k solid. Also the pins are different, the 3d effect is less and the gen hands are more "edgy" I don't know how to say it

But these are things you can't see unless side by side. If I saw the btf hands alone, I dunno if I wouldn't think they're gen.


Also if you're paying 600£ and more for gen hands, please find another vendor lol
