It's a safe assumption that they all have the same watch right? I just have a hard time pulling the trigger on Intime (my usual dealer) given the crime against horology bright yellow dial photos.

Andrew has the watch $20 less and he has a better relationship with XF. Nothing wrong with using another TD if prices are better

Here's a Hodinkee photo of the gen under artificial light - noticeably more yellow-ish than under natural light.

you're right just to avoid any misunderstanding, I think it starts to be interesting to have a side by side when there is a potential comparison, we saw it in the divers, the 5711 the subs etc... I might be wrong, but here imho it is not the same watch, so difficult to compare :-(

This watch is almost impossible to buy at retail and is sold for $120k in the grey market. No rep factory would have bought it for the purpose of repping and I doubt any memeber here owns the gen. How would a side by side comparison ever be possible?

rep factory will do the same kind of side by side they usually do with two reps ...

I'm sure there are ways and I would not underestimate the members here.

The chance to meet someone IRL with the gren on his wrist is close to zero i think.

I was not underestimating memebers here. I figured if anyone here has the gen they would have come forth to comment on the colour of the dial and perhaps posted pics already. Seeing that no-one has done it yet it is reasonable to assume that no-one here owns the gen of THIS watch.
