one thing you will notice on the gen when you see it in person is that the hour markers are white gold VS ss on the rep, and the difference is noteworthy for sure as the white gold mildly "POPS" against the stainless steel , BUT for anyone not familiar with this watch wouldn't notice and unless you had one side side with the gen you wouldn't notice it either , when I see one of my clients wearing one that is what I look for ,the hour markers...
JF could have made the rehaut a bit thinner ,and that also would have put the crown height a little higher ..AND that would automatically fix the crown guards too!
