The blue one has a very nice sunburst. I've compared to the gen and is almost identical.

I got the black one 42mm from Li. Have approved and awaiting shipment!! Fingers crossed covid doesn't mess everything up.

Raided or just not available? Raided for a second time...the quality dropped after the first significantly so I guess we’ll see what happens - Hopefully not like HF.

Thank you. That's pity for the quality dropped. I just checked with TrustyTime. They said GF is ready to support any order.
just pulled the trigger on the white and blue on rubber from trusty. Waiting on the QC pictures to see if the quality went down as mentioned. I wonder how long shipments have been taking? Looking forward to the pictures!
I got the QC pictures and aesthetically it is spot on and quality looks really good, The lighting was off but I doubt the blue in the bezel has changed and I am sure the silver dial will be correct. The only semi negative thing was it was plus 10 on the timegrapher, which is no big deal as I plan on opening it up and improving the waterproofing. When open I will regulate the 2824-2, if I even bother . The Amplitude was great and 0 beat error. I will post pics in a month or so when received

I just purchased the black one with mesh from Trusty/Andrew (TD) really looking forward to get my hands on it.
No real need to do that as I saw no major flaws plus the lighting was off. I will post proper pictures once received
Now the wait begins! Andrew had my QC pictures rather quickly much like my Tudor. I have the gen superocean heritage one on mesh and it is a great looking watch. Yours with the ceramic bezel will look even better

Oh ok. I have just been eyeing this model myself, so was hoping you could share. But if the lighting is off, i understand.
mesh bracelet is ehhh, clasp it shit? movement feels dry and I took it in for service. Looks OK though, the bezel markers are not as crisp as my gen navy. After a service I will give it a good run
So is it worth getting the mesh for a gen watch? Or is it crap?
It's 125usd from TD. Trying to get my head around if I should buy a staib or rep mesh.
Want as close to gen feeling as possible.

It is a 7 out of 10. I own both and i would do the Staib with a gen clasp. On the other hand $120 is really nothing for you to compare or just get the gen mesh. If you have the gen like me then no one will CALL you out for a fake bracelet on a real watch. good luck
Thanks,
Do you by any chance know the thickness of the gen mesh? Staib offer thickness between 2-4,5mm. Trying to find one that are as close to oem as possible!
Just purchased the B&W on rubber, I will replace with gen croc
Ok rep but get it serviced....Bracelet no where as good as gen, Edges are sharp on head compared to gen and bracelet is passable....but all in all a great buy. good luck and enjoy!

I wanted to buy the V2 version with the A2824 movement. But my TD told me that there is a V3 version now with the 9015 movement, but it's not noisy this time. Could this be true? I hope that he doesnt want to sell me the V1...
