It appears CF have now improved the oval size on the crown (on some batches) if so, is it acceptable to ask a TD to try and source this improved crown version?

Also, being a newbie to Reps (but, own a few Gens) it was mentioned that there have been some issues with movement on this CF model? Has anyone experienced problems with movement?

You have asked this question many times and have received the answer many times. There is a whole sticky thread on the 4130 movement where any questions you do still have the answers will be found.

Both yes.
I still have problems with the last one I bought: I got it in May and for the third time I have to send it to the watchmaker to fix it, even after a full service.

Thanks for the link, I will look there. I should have clarified if CF have improved the crown have they also addressed possible the movement issue that was mentioned by a TD to me.

Thanks for the feedback. As, I’m doing my research and getting close to pressing the trigger on a CF V3, I was concerned about the possible movement issue. If it’s fixable that’s good to know. Although, as this will be my first Rep, it very unlikely my Gen watch repairer would touch it so, I’ll have try and find a watchmaker in the UK that would carry out any repairs and service of this Rep

Hi guys, I have been away for a while and struggling to keep up with the different variations.
Ordered a clean v3, can anyone confirm this is the correct version?

Many thanks!

Looks like a V3 (mouth on the coronet was corrected). And yes, the 6pm marker is slightly tilted. I would still GL. Beautiful watch.

hello guys, this is the quality control of my v3.
what do you think?
That you're not allowed to post your QC pics on this forum for others to QC your watch. Please read the rules in the FAQ

Wow ordered from my go-to TD and the watch was seized by Chinese customs on its way out.

That's a first from my years of buying reps since 2015...
