They are very nice, how do they rate rep-wise?

I'm not certain what you want to know, price or gen/rep accuracy ... so I'll answer the 2 questions.

PRICE :
I paid 80$ for the one from Silix
It's definitely unavailable (thoug Min says it could be produced again) but one could find one about 50$ on M2M with a little luck

REP/GEN ACCURACY :
Really good OOTB IMHO ... I first bought as a start case for a built but I had to find a second one because I need to keep one unchanged
First mod to do on that watch is swap the plexi to get a good cyclop magnification
Second mod could be to put a DWO

Here's a comparative pic of a Gen and mine, just OOTB without any mod ... not bad at all for a 80$ watch

Nice piece!
I didn't know anyone else had built a smooth bezel Bobby Alison 6541....
Here is mine that I had for a couple of days prior to me building a 1019 outta it!

Please share the details of your build as far as case and bezel please.

RJ made it out of an old 5513 case (pribably putetime but not really sure) and an old 1655 cartel bezel
