Just received my QC pics, and I noticed two issues I would like to share and ask for your comments. Firstly, the bezel screws at 10, 11 and 1 seem to be misaligned/crooked, and secondly, it looks like there are some scratches, especially right next to the crown. Any advice is highly appreciated.

I had similar crown marks and they wiped away. Bezel screws is probably light playing tricks. Check other pics/angles.

The smaller size of the subdial rings is the only tell that I would notice without having the gen next to the rep. Otherwise, the blue is so well done for once!

Another comparison.
Blue, even if not perfect, seems to be decently close.

Left is APS, Right is Gen.

Thanks for theses comparison, it's nice to see someone doing side by side gen vs rep, far better than compare random online pictures with rep pictures

Impressive gen collection you might have as well, hats off chief!

Not my pictures, someone sent them to me.

I personally have the gen green gold one, will compare with APS when I get it.

Some members of the forum have had their watches for a while and @legend mentioned that he has had some on his desk.

Curious if it’s possible to comment on the quality of the movement. My main question is if it feels safe to operate the chronograph? Would be happy to service the movement and I don’t plan to use it like a fidget toy but would like to run it from time to time.

Would love to hear from a watchmaker if anyone so inclined has been into the watch!

Thanks in advance for your contribution :)

If this was a blind side by side, i would pick left as the more attractive blue. Lucky me that the rep version is also my preference — life’s little victories :LOL:
Interesting how people are different. I personally think the rep green dial is better than the gen green dial but the rep blue dial is much less attractive than the gen blue dial.
