Flaws exist like every rep ever made but too far and too few. An excellent first effort and a super-rep on the wrist.
After owning a fair share of reps, it takes two seconds to tell a stock rep once It is in your hand irrespective of whether or not you know the gen!

Thanks as always Repworld, very informative and the rep looks bloody good. They seem to have got the blue dial range of colours spot on, which is impressive.
I would like to see a better pic of the pearl and 12 marker as this looks as if it might be a bit off, hopefully not, and interesting no close up, mauricio612 will tell us when he is able to compare to his gen. Also datefont is thinner than gen but no one's going to notice without a loupe and its minor. If it's as good in hand as pics then I agree super rep.

For me the pearl is the main thing that needs sorting. The ring around it is a bit too thin and pearl placement a bit too low. Of course we're now being really picky and studying macros whereas in the real world nobody will ever notice. Dial print is slightly thicker on rep but again won't notice on wrist. Case back engraving depth is least important to me as you don't see that when wearing. The biggest tell with these has always been the way the dial changes colour depending on the light from dark to steel blue, which they might have cracked.

And which andy’s last post I put in my order. I hope the 42 works with my 7 inch wrist.

Wow looks great, thanks for sharing! Ive been eyeing this for a while. So it seems the blue is the better made one. Wonder how soon GF will come out with a v2 or its worth it to get this as a base for some light modding. Still a great first attempt.

Ams55557 My wrist is under 7 and the watch looks really nice. However there was not enough holes on the rubber strap (1, maybe 2 more would have been perfect), so I switched for a Nato.
