In the end I opted for the JF 116400gv because the dial is more gen-like than the Noob one. Above all the Rolex logo which is wrong on the Noob version (check for yourself) . What theheck at least the logo has to be well copied in a rep!
To me the Milgauss (as for many other reps) has strikingly a few flaws which could be easily fixed but cause it to fall short of being a super(or even a good) rep.
Apart from the margin of the crystal which is not coloured the main flaws to me are:
-the hour markers have "thinner" metal borders than the gen
-the rehaut engravings are pathetic both in the character style and their alignment ( in the one I have got for example the text is too close to the upper margin of the rehaut and the engraving is weak and the letters not properly aligned)
-the orange seconds hand, the most distinctive feature of the milgauss, is pathetic, the two "steps" in the bolt it represents do not have the characteristic 45° angle of the gen , which makes it overall appearance a little clumsy and an easy tell about the rep.
as I said,this is the most distincive feature of the milgauss, so this is one of the first things which should be identical to gen! period!
So in conclusion the milgauss is yet another example of a rep which could be very close to gen just with a few little fixes and a pinch of good will on the fasctory side. the fact that there is sadly no such good will IMO and I have a theory on why this is so, which I might write down sooner or later.....
