Not for the moderate cost build. The most accurate is Phong but if you are going to that level you will want a gen spec build in his case set.
(Not cheap like the JK)

Has anyone confirmed that these have 9401/0 or 9411/0 engraving between the lugs? It would be interesting to know if they got that detailed. I wouldn't be surprised if they used 1680 or 1665 cases on these though.

That makes sense. BTW, Tony said he can get the rivet bracelet, while several others could not. I think I have to buy the bracelet separately, on top of the regular price of the watch. But it would be nice to have the folded and rivet bracelet.

Does anyone know if gen spec inserts fit the Jkf bezel?

I have a rivet coming from Tony. He could only find the one made for the big crown case so it's 19mm. Hopefully the 20mm end links from the jk will fit. I'm not sure the end link opening is the same size but a Drexel will take care of any size issues.

I thought i remember seeing the opening on the 19mm end link is 9mm vs 8mm on the 20mm end link.

Comparing the last bracelet links are as follows:
Mary's rivet last link measures 8.6mm
Rep 7836 folded last link measures 8.69
Gen 7835 folded last link measures 7.06
Gen 93150 last link measures 8.69mm
End link openings are as follows:
Gen 501b measures 9mm (20mm out)
Gen 593 measures 9mm (20mm out)
Gen 357 measures 7.5mm (19mm out)
My experience is that a 19mm bracelet setup attached to a 20mm end link and lug is very sloppy. Pretty obvious as well.

Thanks a ton. I'm just hoping for compatability and not perfection luckily!

Threw a GS Crystal in this baby. I had to shave the outside diameter a bit to get it to fit with this bezel. It's a totally different construction than my cartel I had a couple years ago. It doesn't have the retaining ring that holds the crystal in. Kinda weird. I've never seen a bezel constructed like this. Nonetheless, I got her in and it's looking much better.
I'm not going to do anything to make it look beat up. Just wear and let it happen naturally!

New member digging up an old thread to ask a stupid question, sorry.
Anyways, all the TD listings for these Tudor Sub reps state bi-directional bezels. Can anyone confirm if this is correct? Is that 1:1?
