Hey guys,
I've searched but haven't been able to find a review of this watch comparing it to a gen. From what I can personally tell the main give away is the color of the lume on the hands of the hour, minute and subdial hands. On the gen they are lighter than the hour markers. Lume wise, I think since tritium doesn't glow as bright as SL that the rep is pretty good. The only give away is that the markers on the subdials at 3 and 9 as well as the numbers on the subdial at 6 don't glow. I may be wrong since I haven't been able to find an image of a gen lume shot.
Let me know if I am off or if there are other give aways.

Am I wrong or aren the hands on the rep silver and black on the gen?
Overall seems like a good rep, only the very fine manufacturing details seem to give it anyway, but nothing too noticeable!
Also the gen seems to have some steel between the lugs that the rep does not seem to have?

I like this rep, I may add it to my list.

Silver hands on both

One of the very best mate...

Picture artifact, there is no steel there...

The biggest tell is the crownguard, specially the inner part of it.

What about the inner part of the crown guard seems off?

There should be a more pronounced inner angle like so. (photo posted by projectologist on rwg).

Your observations on the lume color on the hands compared to the hour markers are spot on.

How obnoxious does the 187g appear to the outsider?



I love mine, but it's like a weapon. Lol
