Whichever factory makes good reps will just get raided, this is the new rule now

Looks sweet! How is the overall feeling of it? How's winding, bezel clicks, bracelet, clasp? Enlighten us as it seems you're the first one to have received it

All feels pretty good. You have to understand that it's the first rep I've ever bought, so haven't really got the experience to be mega critical.

There are no gaps to the SELs, which seems to be a big bugbear people have on here! The clasp has a very positive action; bezel clicks around nicely and doesn't feel either too slack or stiff; winding/changing date seems very positive. Only slight issue seems to be the bezel alignment, which as the OP pointed out is slightly misaligned. Other than that I'm pretty happy with it.

If the bezel alignment is the price I pay for saving the best part of seven grand then I'm happy!

More like £12-13k if you wanted it tomorrow and had to go the grey market.

Bezel alignment was a issue for me on first qc pictures second set of qc it was perfect. So makes sense.

Looking back on them, yes I can now see a slight misalignment. As I said, I've never bought a rep before so I was bound to miss something at my first attempt. I won't be getting upset about it!

I assume there will be someone out there who can correct the alignment?
