All the letters are a giveaway in quality and font and the brushing and satin finish is also much nicer and finer on the v7 rehaut.the things that wins on the v6s is the lugs ,sel bracelet and clasp.just name the thread noob v6s vs gen

The midcase shape of this v7 is just bad. This is by far one of the biggest tells of the this watch... the light reflections are all curved lines... such a shame.

You have to see and feel a gen to really apreciate a Rolex.

How did you manage to fix the bezel alignment? Mine is off by a few MM and it is driving me crazy!

You have to open the case back and loosen the movement. There are 2 screws you need to twist in order to do this. Here is a pic showing the screws:

You don't have to unscrew them all the way, just them give them a 180 degree spin in either direction and you will unlock the movement along with the dial.

Now, using a flat screwdriver or a plastic tool slightly push the movement in the desired direction until you get the rehaut crown aligned with the 12h (60 min marker) .

WARNING : do not tilt the watch while the locking screws are unlocked because the movement will fall out of place and can damage the crown tube.

You can check if the correct position is achieved by lifting the watch and looking at the dial from underneath.

Good luck !

Noob question but an honest one: does the gen look larger in the side by side pics as far as total mm? Maybe just my eyes...
