Lets see if they come out with the blue bezel and white dial.

they should have done that all black first, it would have been easier. We know that with colors things get complicated.

This could have been done easily using a 2824 so not sure why they use a clone movement, one with wrong function at that...
Rep have 2 crown position, with the hour hand independently adjustable, while the gen is just 1 crown position for adjusting time.
It seems it has same function as gen with independent hour hand and not a faux first click

Thanks, great to klnow that SBF got that part correct. Very interesting, considering that the gen is a diving watch not a GMT/travel watch.

This function is not part of the Seamaster 300m diver line with the 8500 movement, but it is with all Planet Oceans since they moved to the 8000 series movements.

Replica oblivion…
I'm betting this may not be too popular as its big and chunky and willappeal to a select number of people...... but you never know.
So Ive bitten the bullet just in case and ordered one from Intime. I have FOMO on this one.

@Teamjlf Thanks for taking one for the team. I will also pull the trigger but would like to see how things shake out with the other versions. I have a feeling this may be like the ploprof. Not a whole lot of people were interested when it came out and now you have to sell your left nut to get one.

if I had to buy it for its resemblance to the gen, I would not have done it. but I bought it anyway. I don't think the dial is its best feature
