Yep. In a couple days time, this baby should be on my wrist, already cleared customs. I also ordered a green leather strap for it.

Mine says hello. You will love it.
BTW, I like it better on the metal band than on a crock.

It's definitely a looker, especially that gold copper dial. I had to cancel my order for it though, the case is way too thick (16mm), and I am way too OCD.

Bro are you sure the REP is 16?
GEN is 15.1, trusty states 14.5
Overall minimal difference on the wrist or under inspection.

I think I saw a video somewhere and the calibers measured the case thickness at 16mm. I sure hope I am wrong, I would really love to get this watch if at the genuine case thickness or less. If it measures 16mm, yes possibly minimal difference. I bit the bullet once on a Omega Speedmaster 57, that sandwich was thic!!

Please take lots of pictures and do a case measurement for us when you get yours.

Cheers.

Sure! Just happened to be wearing it today :)

By the way, I measured it at 16mm sharp thickness for those interested.

That was fast, thanks :thanks:

Green dial is gorgeous... especially with the sunburst. Does then green look mostly dark?
Can't make up my mind which color :eek:hwell:

Not dark at all.. just the lighting of the photo... I highly recommend it :) Though I have the blue and the green one... would not give up any of the two!

I am still waiting for my blue dial to arrive. I am getting a little nervous. My little brown box has been sitting in New Jersey between the DHL handoff to the USPS for 14 days. This is not a good sign.

Bummer my friend. Hope it starts moving again soon. I have seen an unusual spike on waiting times with customs clearance when sending and receiving, but have not had a problem up until now yet.
