I am very happy with it so far

You, sir, are a scurvy bag of douche. What do you mean by purchasing MY watch? Grrrr...I will let it slide. This time.

Actually, looks great. I am buying one this weekend or next. Which movement did you pick, and which dealer?


Congratulations!

I am truly sir all those things you say and more.
I believe this to be my watch and understand there is one to be had for the likes of you sir.

The movement is listed as
Swiss Automatic, 25J, 28800 bph and supposedly as used by the original

I am not sure I am allowed to mention the dealer as it is someone from RG site but it was KING and the service was fantastic.
I have a large wrist size and she added links as part of the deal.

Hope you do get one I am thrilled with mine and unless we turn up in the same pub in England we shouldn't clash

It looks like they fixed the "Calibre 5" text on the dial. The older ones were too red. The gen has the orange matching the Cal 5 and the second hand. Looks great. Post a lume shot when you can.

Do me a favor and PM me with the name of your dealer? I was going to get it from Josh, but his site's down. If you got the same movement as the gen, you have the Sellita SW200. I am also leaning toward getting the same movement.

Do you have a lume and/or wrist shot to post? I hunger for this watch like crazy....

Is it just the angle, or is your cyclops off by just a little bit? (2nd photo - compare top of cyclops to the white line above "500M")

I think the Cyclops might be a touch low/off square the Photo angle exaggerates it a little but Your eagle eyes are probably correct.

...very nice looking piece. I have the gen but with quartz movement. Dial face looks gen. Good for you & wear it well!!

Is it the angle of the pic, or is the cyclops in a different zip code from the date ??

 

[scumbuster]

yeah I think it is, well spotted

Is it the angle of the pic, or is the cyclops in a different zip code from the date ??

I think without your critical eye I would never of noticed that and now I have smashed it up because it is imperfect and I don't love it anymore. Ah well it is better to have loved and lost.........

 

[maxlawbr]

Yours is very nice.

I think it has an upgrade if compared to the former reps, the caliber color is more gen like than the others.

I don't know if your cyclop is misaligned or if it is just the angle of the pic, I believe that if it is misaligned you can try to fix it, removing and putting it back (try search the method in the forum)

Take a look on mine, it is gen.

The cyclops looks good to me. IMO it seems to be the angle of the pictures. This is a great rep, and it's pretty high on my list too.

 

[scumbuster]

I love it, Its my first rep and just what I had hoped for
The service I have received and the pleasure of wearing it makes it all worth while. I would recmomend it to anyone.

Thanks 68 I think it looks ok too but people like to pick and find fault so I just let them Its a rep and is close to the gen but not perfect but I accept that. Its what I wanted and has me wondering what to buy next

i ordered this, and got the same model as you did. the QC pic looks very similar, however I did not accept it because this is the older version... the newer version (if you look at the gen, one that the other member posted) has the number 10 on the bezel aligned properly. if you look at yours, it's not on the correct position, it's off a bit.
