Hi I’m new here!! I do own some Gen patek like 5130g 5167r. I wonder if on the wrist for people who own gen watch can you tell if it’s replica. I haven’t try one since it’s hard to find here in my country.
I’m interested to buy one replica maybe Patek 5712, 5726 and my circle of friends most of people own gen Patek so I wonder if they will notice if I wear replica.
I have heard it’s hard to tell even for people who own gen watch.
Or are they any Patek model that is really close to the gen one please recommend me.
Thank you.
IMO If you're afraid to be called out don't buy one.

Hi and welcome to RWI! Glad you found your way here.
Generally, as you say it's hard to tell even for gen owners, unless they are real connoisseurs it's unlikely anybody will be able to recognise it's a rep. This comes with some caveats though related to the specific model you're after. But a certain variance is present in the genuine counterparts, so .. .
@domiffm has one of the models you're after and he knows his pateks, maybe he can tell you more. Worst case, you can have the watch further modified to make it even more genlike.

Another good thread to read to understand where RWI comes from and some fundamentals is this:
Most of the information you need to know to start is there. If you're preparing to buy, read the stickies before ordering. When you're finished, you can continue learning by reading the stickies in all remaining sections. If it's stickied, it's important information.
If you intend to sell, read the sales rules and all stickies in the sales section with particular care and make sure you understand each single rule. Sales rules infraction is taken very seriously here. As a new member you are not eligible to sell. Using the sales section is a privilege, eligibility must be earned, make sure you know and understand how.
For anything else, feel free to reach out to @eBoy or me, we're happy to assist, advise, direct, explain. Don't hesitate.
