Thank you for the pictures.
Biggest difference for me: the red and the thickness/sloppy shaped numerals. especially the 8 stands out for me

Well, there's more to says about the watch I'm sure.

1 - Gen dial vs ZF dial (since he owns both)
2 - Power reserve (after a week or so since he just have it today. It says there's 5 days PR. A review on the PR after 5 days perhaps?)
3 - Numerals & Hands color on certain angle (with & without light touches it)
4 - Date wheel (His picture is showing the date 1. it would be great to show 2 digit date to see does the DW aligned properly)
5 - Quality of the rep strap
6 - Pictures!!! (Under sunlight)

Does this answer your question? It's for all of us to learn and you don't have to ask me what more do I need. There's plenty of unanswered questions regarding the watch and everybody is curious.

I don't see the point of noting every single minute difference as this is a very good rep and I am very picky. I can't think of any rep I have that I haven't done something too but out of the box this is really good.
I will answer your questions to some degree.

1) I've uploaded some images in artifical light, I'm not going to get a chance to take any in sun light for some time.
2) From what I have seen mine seems to drop half a divison in 6 hrs from full at rest. I personally think it is irrelevant as I normally wear my gens so the reps often sit for some time in the box so normally have to wind them when i wear them.
3) Sorry but I'm too busy to spend time analysing every single lighting possibility. if you need to go to that detail then you need go gen or franken it
4) You can see the 1 is positioned exactly right, as you know I've changed the dial so it's irrellevant to the rep. Maybe someone with an out of box rep can picture all positions
5) It's a rep strap!
6) refer to 1)

If you really want to study it in detail you'll have to invest your own cash and make your own mind up.

Folks, this rep on the wrist will fool an AD for sure imo.

No problem at all, interesting.

When you make them more actual size you can see how close it is

This is extremely useful and my conclusion is I'll be getting it..the differences are too small to be noticed when the watch is on wrist.

Thanks Ruski for the hard work and rhc for the side by side pics!

Mine came in about 2 days ago... I don't know if I have a defective model or not, but the power reserve never drops below the 7. It's been 2 days already so there must be something wrong with mine :/.
