Not a bad execution. I own the gen 26420OI and the maker has gotten a few details off (texture of the tapisseries being the most visual one for me, the gen has a smooth satin finish) as well as the color of the straps but here's the thing: on both counts, I think the rep looks better lol. I like how the rep is made, and naturally I think its a very nice watch on the wrist if you're willing to look past the small flaws. Congrats and wear it well!

Thanks mate. I really love this one ;-)

One question: How long is the Gen strap? What surprises me a little about the Rep is that the strap stops "behind the holes" after two centimeters. For me, at 17.5 cm, this is not a problem - on the contrary, it fits me like a glove. But from 19 and even more so over 20, it could quickly be too small.

I can take a measurement for you when I get back if you want. But at 17.5cm, you can pull off the standard strap size easy.
What I wanted to convey is that I personally think (and of course this is very subjective) that your watch looks better than the gen lol.
Maybe AP should upgrade the model to match this. That dial texture is killer for me.

You don't have to go to any trouble. I just wanted to point this out for fellow members, as some of our members have strong arms and may have problems with the straps supplied (the Quickchange system works well, by the way). With a 20cm wrist, the strap should just about fit, but then you really don't have anything left behind the buckle, which doesn't look very good.

That´s quite funny. Unfortunately, I've never seen the Gen in the flesh - it was never in stock at our AP boutique. I suspect that APP doesn't have a Gen as a model either and used the rendered images from the AP website as a template.

Rendered pics are never quite accurate. I am not wearing the watch today but here is a pic of it from last month.
You can also google the 26420OI pics and trust me, there are no lines on the tapisseries. I do prefer the rep dial texture ironically as it gives the dial a more textured appearance. AP should take some cues from the rep maker.

After more than a year locked in the drawer for bad behaviour (movement didn’t behave nicely and had to be replaced), this is back

Where did you purchase a new movement from, my bp factory montauk highway has been having issues, unless its a completely different movement

I haven't bought or tested these and I can't promise they'll fit or if the store is a scam or not

But I have seen these on Aliexpress.....

I like the white dial, but mostly only during soft lighting lol.
