:taz: :notworthy: Very informative and detailed review, hats off to you bro!

This looks to be a very well made rep, without the gen side-by-side and having all the macro shots it will be difficult to differentiate the two. As most of the reps with pearl, this is one of the "east-to-spot" flaw to an otherwise beautiful watch.

Great review, thanks for spending your time!

IMO, the wrong pearl is a non-mistake made by the factory to keep interest in a V2 version.

great review ,unless you were going to wear this as a daily beater , I gen wouldn't be worth it IMHO

I usually dont wear my gens as daily beaters...even have the same watch as rep and gen and wear the rep as daily beater and the gen is in the safe...

can someone measure the size from lug to lug please? Thanks!

edit: just saw the review contains that info..thanks again!

Thanks my friend. Comparison is awesome. I think the biggest difference for the appearance is the pearl on the bezel.

Amazing review. Thanks for your time and for this excellent quality pictorial review. I do like my rep bb but I think the rep and gen worth their prices :)

Great Job on the review,,,,,Rep Points coming your way for sure,,,,,,That is awesome that the Z factory came that close on machining and tool and die work!
I agree with you fully!,,,,,If one could obtain some Gen parts for this watch,,You could have a awesome franken,,,Big Bang! for the Buck!
Awesome Review,,,,I really enjoyed it!,,

Has anyone done a side by side with a 16610 or 116610 sub? Which does it most wear like? I am guessing from what I have seen probably the 116610

Cheers
