shit, no kidding, as bad as my job situation is right now....

i would have bought that watch from hooli as well, without one second of hesitation.

LoS only had top modded reps....the best out there.....Hooli wouldnt touch them, unless.....they are top notch.

hey Dogma, you must get a HELLOFAWATCH there.....no kidding. i mean it.

good you had the funds !

Hmm, that one didn't last long in your possesion T, sorry to see it go but then again glad to see it found a great new owner :)

Just as a matter of interest to some...
The older 024 rep dial was printed with very good letter 'A' shape...with horizontal xbar only slighly droopy compared to a gen counterpart.
I still wouldn't dare posting it on a gen forum though, no matter how well it's modded or not (as I heard that another forum member was about to do that)...the numerals 6 and 12 are easy to pick on a rep, they're thinner and 6 has a noticeably shorter top overhang and different loop shape, so for those in the know on gen forums - an easy pick.

Babola is 100% correct. The numeral 6 on the rep dial is the easiest tell.

I will definitely not post it on a gen forum because rep is still rep and will not fool the purist.

ok in pic is 2x a gen and 1x a super-super franken...
but i cannot find...

The two on the far left are gens (the one on dark brown sharkskin strap and the one on carbon strap). They're the bottom one and a third one from the bottom in the stack on the second photo.

The 025 on the right is a franken :)

That's my call anyway...would love to know how far off I am, though.

My take.... 024 on far left and 025 on far right are gens. Super super franken... erm 024 at the very bottom with brown strap :?: :?:
