Did order one now even though i've got RXF. Need 1 more watch case :D

You are crazy. Do you have all the new subs soon? Let me know when you have something for sale ;)

Greeting from Norway :D

This is fantastic! For me, that crystal is king of all rep crystals. So glad I ordered this to review.

This is bullshit. I buy an RFX and two weeks later, it's no longer the best.

Fuck it - I'm going to go into denial like all those ZZF trolls and just continue to claim that my RXF is better, in spite of all evidence to the contrary.

Just my 2 pennies, but, if 99% of the outsiders wouldn't recognize a rep from a gen, i bet 99% of us rwi members wouldn't notice the flaws if not pointed out by our 1% of well knowledgeable experts. We are spoiled here. These micro flaws are not as bad as we make em out to be. that being said, i love the efforts being put out by the factories to make us happier.

I could imagine a day they will ask you to provide DNA so they can implant that code and when you sell it you have to sign a permission to alter the code for the new buyer. Start out as offering it as a "free" service to the original buyer but require subsequent buyers of your watch to pay for a new code procedures.

Some ADs actually let customers sign waivers where they agree to not get the warranty card handed out for two years after purchase. Obviously an approach by R Factory to screw they grey market...

That's blown up at least 10 times if not more. No way you see that on the wrist.

EDIT: well I just looked at my own watch at high mag (a GMF BLNR) and I must admit it looks better. Still don't think this is bad and still think it would not be a deal breaker to me. Wouldn't a gen look like that after a few months on the wrist?

​​​​​​omg that sel gap.... Here you can see that gen also have random QC (less than rep of course) more than you think ! If it's only some milliliter it's ok just be careful with QC pic. Here the gen has bigger gap ;)

Yeah, i mentioned the sel gap in the ZF thread - if the watch is shot against light you will almost always see a gap - even on a gen. But some folks just gotta hate...
