Gen bezel for black bay red

[antotony0203]

The biggest difference I think is the pearl.
All in all, I doubt it this is really an upgrade which it worth it.

Incorrect section! However how much did you have to pay for the insert? They look the same in my eyes.

I saw a complete set of the whole gen bezel assembly on rwg go for 300Euros. Imo its not worth it.

I bought is for 350usd. I thought the diff is huge but turns out it isn't.

There really isnt much difference to be honest. Maybe in real the difference will be clearer.

Nice pick up bro they may be similar. But the gen insert is gen.the pearl on the rep aint as good.and the colour burgandy looks deeper on the gen insert.

is the lume on the gen-pearl matching the lume of the hands or the lume of the hourmarkers?

It does. It surely is a nice pricy update haha. Cost me 340euros on tht one insert. But the difference is still there. I have seen some 30dollars pearl on ebay. I wonder if they are the same as gen. If yes, it would be a much better alternative

Rep parts are never the same as gen close but not as good.you should get a gen bezel next and build a full bb franken

After changing it, it does make a huge difference to me. Looks so great now. The main difference is in the color of the font and the pearl. Don't know if the gen bezel is really diff from the rep ones but I guess it is hard to source the Tudor parts. I am also looking for a gen insert for the pelagos which I think is also pretty off from the gens.

@antotony0203 Looks like a definite eye-catcher/compliment-getter! Thanks for sharing.

Gen BB parts are crazy expensive but there is a ton of a difference in the colour. Well done OP!

Yes they are but I think they are worth it especially for the insert and crystal as they really make a huge difference. I think one reason why they are so expensive is the rarity. Tudor is really doing a good job maintaining the release of the parts.
