Thank you very much for the confirmation, the size looks great, I have plenty of faux pushers on my reps, that doesn't bother me. At least aesthetically, they perfected that.. my only issue would be the white ring around the hands, it stares me in the eyes, if that could get resolved, I would jump on that one.. although my rule lately is not to buy anything bigger than 40mm, that's my limit for looking good on my wrist, but since you are saying it wears like 40mm, then this would be in the wish list for now.. until I resolve the issue of the white ring circulating the middle of the hand stack.

Thanks again for your kind contribution..
Shouldn't that be easy to correct? I think if the hands are removed it can be painted blue in the central area. Like the gen.

You're welcome! I absolutely agree about the white ring; I cannot unsee that flaw. I am planning to experiment with different metallic blue paint configurations to find what might be the closest color match. Painting the base shouldn't be a difficult task since it's such a small surface area. I will keep you up to date on my progress.

Very nice. I guess it closes the debate on whether the dial is too yellow ;)

I actually went to the AD to see how does a gen dial looks like, and overall the rep is stunning, the dial color is exactly the same... the only detail I saw was the bold font, but for me it is not a big deal.
