Well deserved! Thanks for putting that together, I am sure it takes a lot of time and research.

There is a bit of slack in the power reserve mechanisum and judging by the position in your pictures I would say it is right when the hand is pushed back. I found with mine when fitting you can push the hand to about that position and pushing it the other way it will probably be exactly on the high mark. In use it will only go to the high mark.
I noticed this last night when fitting a gen dial.
Got this bad boy in the post today for the White/gold. Will be getting a gen blue strap for the other (currently on a black Rios).
Both have gen dials fitted.

Oh my god!!!
What a stunning combo!
My oem dials are coming but I don't have your skills:bang::bang::bang:
Here you go. Always wanted a Santoni but normal price is so much. Managed to get this for just less than 1.5 times the cost of the Rios!

What's everyone thought on the 500106 vs 500703 dial? Which one is consider more close to GEN?
Thanks! Just order the black dial from him. Assume he's really good about finding the best one?

Hello, where did you get this strap?
I've never had a QC reject with Ryan. On the flip side, I'm not super picky about the finer details. Obviously if a numeral is super crooked, etc I'll ask for another - but I understand these can never be perfect watches. Good luck!
Thanks, same here. Most likely I'll post the QC pic here for everyone to review...I'm terrible at finding flaws on a watch..
I wouldn't then. If you have 100 people go over something with a microscope, someone is bound to find something. Whether or not that is important is a different story. If you are fine with the watch, then leave it at that. The second you start micro analyzing everything you'll never be able to unsee it.
please come out with this one :thumbup:
That's not Gen is it? I couldn't find it on IWC's website. It is damn good looking though...
i could only find 5 different variations and that was not one of them. but it does look really nice.
That IS a gen, super limited edition - and it's the one I'm TRULY waiting for aside from the blue/silver dial. I am really hoping they rep it. YLF just released something similar, but with blue subdials. I hope ZF can meet the challenge and bring this one out.
