the leg of the R is there I think its just how the light is hitting it, and if Im wrong im sure this is just an early production version they sorted the 94 on the br01 think they can sort this before production.

Why say Platinum on the back? The platinum limited edition model weighed a LOT more than the SS version.

It seems so unnecessary...

I realize the platinum version is more "exclusive" than the plain old SS model....but come on its only a rep.

It's the Platinum version that is way off, sub dial spacing, indices are way too off, date window to far up. V1 is much better in all respects.

They have made the "P" with an extra leg but it is so unobvious...

The caseback should be easy to fix, thanks guys for the suggestions.

h_u, on a closed case back watch, is that really a big deal? Anyone who opens the back of the watch will know it's not gen, regardless of the typo on the rotor...

I agree... V1 is better in this case (in terms of accuracy). Subdial spacing is wayyyyy off.

I would rather have non working PR indicator than a wrong subdial spacing. The indicator will remain at 7 if you wear the watch.

I guess I'm way to easy to please...but I like it, I think it's a nice looking watch and under $200 too.

Unfortunately, the dial is totally off. Look at the three marker. there are other flaws as well. This is quite close to the much earlier $100 version (which I have). V1 is still the only accurate dial.

In order to get the PR to work they have to bring the sub-dial in farther toward the center, making it quite innacurate.
