Hi guys!

I'm in no way an Omega rep expert and this is not one of those crazy tests, haha. :lol:

I just wanna get your valuable input if this is a Seamaster GMT gen or not?

Looks rep to me, particularly the bezel and the subdials position.

no strong ar characteristic for PO models. hard to say weather datewheel is sunken or not. if it's sunken then it's a rep 100%. even though i have never seen that particular model in person the one pictured looks like a cheap type rep

The date window is turned like in a gen, rather than a rep. Where the tops of the numbers are pointing towards the handstack. You dont see many reps with datewheels like that.

I cant say that there are no Omega reps like that, but I dont recall seeing any. Of course better pics would be nice, along with the chronos reset.

Update: Nevermind. I checked a TD website and the quartz has a properly aligned datewheel but wrong color. I didnt see the 21j. I have never seen a 7750 version of this one.

The crown is wrong. This gen model has a no-happy feet Logo. This rep's subdial spacing is too far apart. The hour hand is incorrect. The GMT hand extends too far to the indice on the rep.

Not Gen I say. ;)

Thanks doover and r2d4, appreciate it.

Basing on your reference photo, yeah the crown is way off as well as the subdials. Below is a larger photo if anyone find other inconsistencies :)
