Get the gen
I agree buying the rep for 300.00 when you can pick up a gen TT1 Titan for 900.00 doesn't make much sense to my. I will say that the Carlos Costa rep is very good just not Ti.

I agree, get the gen. You can find one on the WUS sales for around 6-700USD. I was lucky and got a gen 2006 TT1 model for $500, so I know it can be done. Mine had just been serviced too, and runs at +2sec a day. It is an awesome watch, and I have yet to see a rep that looks close. They are all really horrible. I'd get a rep of the chrono F1 2008 if there was one that looked close to the original, but it doesn't exist yet.
