Recently picked up my grail watch, AP 15400ST boutique Blue and thought I’d do a quick gen vs rep mini-review for the community.
Summary:
Obviously, there are some hardcore members on the rep forums that have the ability to spot a rep from space, but you ain’t gonna run in to the 100 or so of these guys in the real world, all I know, is that the rep is excellent and scary close to gen (on the wrist).

Great review. Thanks.
There's one point you made, which I believe is accurate, as listed above.
I agree that there are only about 100 people on this globe who can spot a great rep in real life, i.e. on a moving wrist. This is assuming random sampling. The Sub, yes, there might be more as it is perhaps the most popular watch, hence the most popular rep.
People use percentages like 98, 99.9 etc. without understanding the scope. 98 is 1 in 50, 99.9 is 1 in 1000. Of our global population of what, 8 billion, a hundred would be 100/8billion. Circumstances and situations of course will greatly deviate from this average.
Bottom line, like the oft repeated "buy from seller" would perhaps be equated to "gauge by the wearer" if one is so obsessed with this aspect.
