Datewheel is recessed, bad date font, bad logo, and weak lume and AR. However, for the price the watch is a great value compared to less reliable and more expensive super reps.
When I first received it I was in shock at the quality as this was my first rep since the canal street rolex from 15 years ago.
A few week later I was in a mall that had an AD. So the watch went in my pocket and I put on the gen. Aside from a few minor details it looks and feels the same.
I agree the rep PO for the most part play thier part very well. Theres still a few areas that need improvement but all in all a very good rep to own, well if the pearl doesn't fall off.
