I think this one has a slightly better VI than yours.
This one has the correct number of 'diamonds' on the VI to the gen.
When you bought yours, and when the QC pics comes out, are they from the same set of VI pictures?
Yours only have 3 diamonds for the I, and 5 for the V.

GEN amount of diamonds

GEN diamond settings.
From what I see at perfect clones pics, they don't seem to have those 'diamond brackets'. What do you think ?

Josh have dj lady in 30.5mm for sale.
I think spirit is mistaken if he said it is a very good rep. Just seeing from the VI you can easily tell it is a fake. My advice is to stay awal from this dial with VI diamonds.

Unless someone else up here came up with other pics that can convince us :D

It´s not bad, believe me.
...The watch I had in my hands was from a factory that used a good Datejust as a base to make this model. Which is very nice to start with, BUT you will be caught in two details that you can´t escape from...
1 - The CZ used to replicate the diamonds will be like any other rep, and will never shine like real diamonds, so unless you plan to change that, you will have to live with it. It´s not a deal breaker IMHO.
2 - For a TT model, of course the bracelet is plated and the sides of the midlink on the SELs aren´t plated/wrapped, so a replacement would be VERY difficult to find, unless you have it plated by yourself on a third part jeweller... which will cost you some bucks and alot of workk to find a decent place to do.

Once again, as I said before, the version I held in my hands was the 36mm version, and not the 31mm.

Even the ones on the QC pics that were shown on the thread are good too, if you consider the other details of the watch, and not consider all the work to fix the 2 main flaws I mentioned above.

I think the missus won´t be disappointed by the watch overall, so no needs to worry :)

I didn´t take any pictures of the watch I held in my hands, but I bought a TT Everose Gold Datejust that is basically the same "base watch" used to this model, which is this one below:

Different bezel and dial, but rest is exactly the same, specially the overall quality.

:cheers:

Cheers,
Spirit.

Spirit thanks for taking the time to make this writeup..
Because you told me in a previous thread that it was a good quality watch is what made me purchase it..

I was just about to send you a pm to chime into this thread.. But then I saw your reply:D

Can't wait to give this to my wife .. She's gonna love it!
And I'll do my best to shoot some handsome pics..

look at the sheer differences with GEN's VI

Capture2-1_zps8fbd35a3.png


r31_zps50387adf.png



Rep's Zircon looks like is being "glued" to the VI "plate", while the one in the gen is not glued, but rather put into place holder or something like brackets (the VI has its own diamond brackets and styling). And to me, this alone, is a major major tell for this type of dial.


Please do correct me if I am wrong though, as I am only observing from pictures, not from close encounter :)

lol...If you are expecting to see that difference on the wrist, you will need to have your nose poking the watch to check that :lol1: ...But don´t forget your loupe.

That even more if the watch in question is 31mm, which is smaller than the one I held in my hands.

Cheers,
Spirit.
