I bought a Carrera Automatic on eBay about a year ago before I knew they made such good replicas. I am pretty sure this is a gen, but I am a noob so I could use a second opinion.

Also if you could tell me what the difference is or what you are looking for to judge the difference, that would be most helpful.

Sorry if the pictures are crappy :(

Thanks!

I am 99% sure its a gen. I've held it next to a gen and it looks the exact same, down to the 25 jewel engraving on the deep inside of the movement. I have papers for it as well, but I wanted to know if there were other ways to tell just to be sure.

Just figured I would ask some experts :)

This is my first post and thread BTW. Hi guys :wave:

It has a ten movement, but as mentioned, its possible its a later gen movement to the earlier one with yellow text rotor.
