Maybe it's the A/R..... but is it just my eyes or does the GEN have whiter fonts? i.e Panerai and 1950 letterings

Rep AR is absolutly wrong on the fiddy (or any other PAM rep) since gen is almost colorless. It has been discussed extensively and your best aproach might be to strip off the AR from the crystal.

Now regarding the off white lettering, you are absolutly right. Gen has more of a white look to it than DSN's. Best rep dial I have seen is old school Eddie's.

Cheers!

Love the FiDDY, your DSN looks fantastic!
The 47mm PANs are so sexy. Just got my 6152 & am entertaining a CALI (love the plexi) or a FIDDY or a 217 MM..... decisions decisions.....
The AR is one of the "things" I'm not sure about on the saphires on these watches, hence why I bought a 47mm with plexi.
When you rendez-vous for your pin mod you should take pics.
Would also love to see the DSN FiDDY in person. Hmmmmmm.
Wear it well & enjoy!

You really can't use the pictures on your monitor to judge this. Only a side by side comparison would have any validity, preferably in person.

Such factors as lighting, white balance, colour profile of image file, colour profile of monitor and monitor calibration all factor into the final picture you are seeing.

I had to send the Fiddy back to DSN as the movement broke in 1 week. Came back and the movement has problems out of the box. Am a lil disappointed with the so called Swiss e movement quality. Am getting it serviced/repaired locally.

Have managed to procure another fiddy with an Asian movement. Will swap the movements and get my Swiss one serviced.

My additional Fiddy case will be getting DLC'd and a Swiss sterile dlc movement put in it.
