This is my first attempt in reviewing a watch and i'm actually taking the trouble because it is one sweet looking watch 
A little history:
The Ulysse Nardin Blue Surf watch offers timepiece enthusiasts a limited edition Maxi Marine Diver that celebrates the spirit of the ocean waves, a territory well known by Ulysse Nardin, since ships aided by their precise chronometers were able to make their difficult journeys in greater safety. The Ulysse Nardin Blue Surf watch is presented in stainless steel or 18K rose gold, its impressive 42.7mm case displaying fine craftsmanship and intricate detail, including an elaborate caseback which is secured to the case with individual screws.
Water resistant to 200 meters, the Blue Surf watch makes an ideal companion for any water related activity, and its unique and striking appearance ensures that it stands apart from the crowd. Ulysse Nardin is well known for its spectacular dials, and also its use of the color blue in marking the introduction of special timepieces. For the Blue Surf watch, Ulysse Nardin has produced a special dial with a unique three-dimensional wave motif, which has been given a unique galvanized finish for an exceptional lustre and play of light.
Gen vs Hont's (Pardon my camera skills)
At the price I paid, I think that this is a very well replicated watch. The quality certainly exceeds the price. If you want to compare accuracy, the biggest flaw I spotted was that the seconds @ 6 dial is significantly lower as compared to the gen. Also, the waves on the bezel is not as wavy as compared to the gen. The buckle clasp is not the smoothest but it does its job. Adjusting the strap is similar to Porsche Design, it requires cutting. About the metal piece cutting into the strap, my strap had some signs of cutting but I think its because the strap has been over straightened. The lume is very standard, hardly glows and only for a very short period of time. The lume pic I took below is photoshoped, it does not look that good in real conditions. In conclusion, this watch is not flawless, but as we all know, there is no 1:1. At a tiny fraction of the gen price, this watch is amazing. I would like to say that I am in love with Ulysse Nardin and this watch and I hope Hont would buy more Gen UN watches to replicate.
