First of all I'm really sorry, I cannot make good photos for the life of me but I came into the possession of those watches today as well.
For the price I paid (150$ per watch) I'm really happy with those and glad someone finally made a replica. I went with the all black and also stainless steel + black dial ( Which I'm pretty sure doesn't exist in the 43mm version).
The watches are a little under 14mm thickness(13.8 for the ss one, 13.9 for the black one) , apparently the gens are advertised as 14.4mm.
Also for the movement, I have no idea what is being used here so I attached a photo maybe someone with more experience can comment, but for 150$ I'm guessing its no clone lol. Also on both of them the movement is pretty silent.
The strap is indeed pretty low quality but it's fine for the most part. Won't be changing it soon.
Also I had no idea the lume on those is so cool (My picture is very bad but you get the idea)

If you guys have any questions feel free to ask away, I'll help in anyway I can seeing as I don't think there's a lot of you yet that bought this but my recommendation is if you're a fan of this watch like I am this is a must-buy.

Would you mind posting the link to where you purchased?First of all I'm really sorry, I cannot make good photos for the life of me but I came into the possession of those watches today as well.

After looking around the pictures posted by the other owner a page back in this thread and comparing my black version of the watch to his it seems there are quite a few differences which means there's more than one factory that currently produce this watch.
His plots and crown guards are silver (Like gen) while mine are black.
He has the correct strap while mine seems to be just a regular offshore strap.
My dial is also missing 2 red squares.
Case shape seems to be different as well, where the bezel ends mine goes straight down while his has a very little gap.
The beveling on the edges of the case is different as well mine is more aggresive from what I can see.
Those are the differences I spotted and I tried my shot at a better picture so you can see for yourself.

If you paid $150, you’re getting your worth for the watch so don’t worry too much. It’ll be a concern for example if you paid $500 and got the same watch. You can always upgrade to a better one if you like the model.After looking around the pictures posted by the other owner a page back in this thread and comparing my black version of the watch to his it seems there are quite a few differences which means there's more than one factory that currently produce this watch.

Yes I'm not fussed at all, really happy with what I got for the 150$, was just pointing out for people to be aware and make the decision for themselves.
Just talking to Wuwatch now. He says there’s a $170 and a $450 version. He’s sent me videos and looks like just a movement difference
That doesn't sound right. There should be bigger differences. Do you have pics ?
Do you have a link to it ?I came across this while browsing SidWatches and thought it might be helpful.
