So I have it in my hands now. Not bad, but far from being great. The issue with mine is that the date click button was not changing the date. So a small surgery to fix the issue - needed to reshape / bend a bit the date switching lever. The movement looks pretty complicated but this is due to an AM/PM and date complications. All seems to be functional now. Wanted to do a light franken but the “tachy” which sits on the dial is different diameter gen vs rep. Also the thickness is different. As well as the center hole diameter. Need to think of it.
The rep dial is not great - flat vs nice sunburst effect with the gen, subdials white vs silver on the gen. Some photos:

Thank you for feedback and pics! Could you perhaps clarify how the AM/PM indicator works? In videos I've seen, it doesn't change at the 12 o'clock position, which seems strange to meSo I have it in my hands now. Not bad, but far from being great.

I’ve had one for about 6 months now. The GMT/2nd hour function doesn’t seem to set properly no matter what I do. I have about 7 gen and 8 reps but none have a GMT function other than this so it’s possible I’m making a mistake with setting it as mine only seems to have 1 point to set at top crown.
