Do they have a rep of the 672? The 602 reps are not overly accurate. ZF is considered the best, but still has many flaws upon a close inspection.

Yes they have a 672 haven't seen the reps in real so don't know how would the engraving looks in real life.

To my understanding the engraving are all hand done on the both gens, so no two are the exact same. The 672 is a run of 99 and the 602 only had 500 pieces so the odds of seeing one is extremely low. The 602 has a good write up in ALE' guide showing the flaws of the 602. I'd suggest you look at that and decide if you can accept the flaws. I personally think the dial flaws are more than I would like, but on the wrist these flaws would not be noticeable.

I guess 604 was also 99 ever made. Even 672 is 99 made. 672 has a change is strap with a florentine logo on the strap and the strap is a rough brown colour. Where is the 604 comes with plain black leather strap. In term of movement deco and closeness to gen am not sure which is better one. Sunburnt unsure on both. Has any one handled both side by side. Can the hands be replaced with a Gen. the gen has a gold tone hands. Would appreciate if Pam expert can endorse their views. Thank you.

[MENTION=35350]ALE7575[/MENTION]. Sorry to bother you, but do you have any information that could help out? I've read your guide's section on the 602, but this is beyond my knowledge. Thank you!
