Then its not gen like. The gen nato is smaller than the lug. But its just a small difference.

That would actually matter if the rep nato was similar to gen but its completely different.

can anyone post pics from the side? I'm curious to see how tall the crystal is compared to gen. When looking at the side by sides with gen, the gen has a bit of distortion at the edges due to the dome whereas the rep doesn't seem to have that.

Can anyone help comment on the quality of XF vs. ZF ? Both models are available but I cant discern the differences between the factories. is XF considered better?

Looks like from the side-by-side pics on this post that the XF is damn near 1:1 with a few minor improvements... but what about ZF?

Cheers!

If you saw the comparison then you'll be able to tell that the XF is much better than the ZF. Colour of the bezel, dial font, crown and caseback engravings are all much better on the XF than ZF.

I personally have the XF and I'm very happy with it. The only thing is you might want to find a better strap. I'm sure both the straps given by ZF and XF aren't very good. In general rep straps are crap.

Hi all,

Just purchased and received the watch. I've been trying to remove the leather strap for over an hour, would anybody advise how?

I've tried using both the lug holes and the manual method with a spring bar tool to no avail

It should pop right out if you poke the tool through the lug hole, mine did.
