I just recently ordered from Watch Station (watch-station.co) the "IWC Portuguese Real PR RG IW500115 ZF 1:1 Best Edition Black Dial on Black Leather Strap A52010 V2". It's the 7-day IWC Portuguese rosegold. with a black face. Havent been able to find anything on this watch specifically. Any ideas of how this stacks up against the genuine? The dial, movement and strap? I've also read on the forums that it's usually best to stay away from rose gold rep's - that they look fake. Is this true?

Are there any modifications anyone would recommend once I get it?

And finally, which reps have the best version of this?


My apologies if these questions have already been asked somewhere else on the forum.

Thanks

Gen IWC strap = 400€ and a gen buckle = 420€.... makes the watch twie as good!

I have same watch. The only thing is that gen is solid gold, the rep is plated gold, so there is a little weight difference but who can notice it :wink:. Visually the watch is gorgeous :thumbup:

Here is some wrist shot. The quality is not very good, but there is very poor light. Soon as possible I will post better shoots.

What do you guys think? Does the 2, 4 and 5 hour markers are crooked? The power reserve is also not correctly aligned. Would you reject it?

Does anyone have a photo of a RG case+white dial with a black leather strap?

Hey guys. Bought a 5007 V1 ZF a while back and found that the AR is pretty weak.

Is it now better, with more "swiss quality" AR?

Everything is the same apart from "Movement Plate". Also it's not 5007, it's 5001.

I know that everyone has been saying that its the same exact as v1, except the movement plate, but i cant help but notice that the subdials on the black version look alot more matte then the v1. Earlier in this thread sharkkey posted a gen dial beside a v1 black dial and the subdials looked way to shiny in comparison but all the pics of the v2 i have seen look more matte/gen like. Maybe its just the lighting but i have noticed this on multiple pictures from diff users.. Just wonderin bec i really want the black dial version but not ready to start with oem dial mods and if the dial is the same as the v1 imho it would require a gen dial..[emoji53]

Those are very good points. How accurate is the black dial and the AR to gen then?
