Chavezzito 121 Posted April 8, 2016 I just saw this and since I have the gen I though I compare the Omega PO Chrono...just some screenshots and then not so artistic pics of mine with an IPhone...for me this is scary good although date font and text font, correct orange color is not correct it is still damn close. Post number 15 below is of the BP which is a better rep. Some pics, rep pics I stole from Toros site: Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Del 4,528 Posted April 8, 2016 Yes, the rep is very good, although you forgot to mention the semi-faux sub-dial at "3". The question is my friend, do you wish you hadn't bought the gen....? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elp 26 Posted April 8, 2016 I agree with Del - the watch on the right is so obviously a rep Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chavezzito 121 Posted April 8, 2016 I saw that there is a BP version and a SW version...BP looks better to me. Yes, the rep is very good, although you forgot to mention the semi-faux sub-dial at "3". The question is my friend, do you wish you hadn't bought the gen....? Haha...no, I am still very very very happy with the gen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James. 4 Posted April 8, 2016 Simple solution is just buy gens they dont rep! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chavezzito 121 Posted April 8, 2016 Simple solution is just buy gens they dont rep! And how do you know that in advance? I did not write this as a fuckers...stop replicating gens...more like a, hey guys....look how close to the gen without having to pay top dollar. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tonyh7 248 Posted April 8, 2016 It's one I can never quite get my head round. Some reps are very gen like. For example I have a Hamilton Ventura rep, my friend has a gen. On the wrist you'd never know the difference. On the other hand when I look in an AD - like a couple of the Omega boutiques round here, the gens do look very good. They just radiate quality. I think you would know immediately on a side by side comparison. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WatchaholicMallorca 2 Posted April 8, 2016 If there is something that winds me up about the rep factories it's how they change the numbers on the subdials, even if they are faux why can't the numbers be right? I have a RO Chrono and the subdial configuration is something stupid like 24 6 12, instead of 10 20 30 as gen, can some explain why they go through such lengths to get watches closer to gen then flop with the subdials??

Yes...holding them or seeing them side by side you would notice straight away...just the feeling of a gen is different, bracelet is smoother as an example.

Testomatic 0 Posted April 8, 2016 One day i am sure we'll see super-gens that will be so close to a rep that we won t be able to tell the difference. Be careful china, the swiss are progressing fast. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GenTLe 1,510 Posted April 8, 2016 Well... Wrong dial @3, fake functions.... I don't find it that scary. Viceversa a 2014 LMPO limited ed. or a 2015 BPFF or a HFactory Seawolf, or many many Panerai (those without the manifacture movement)... THOSE are scary for me And also the new Hublot La Ferrari replica is scary. But for the opposite reason Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thedavidrush3 0 Posted April 8, 2016 It's funny. I have a few gens (Pam, Breitling, Bell&Ross) and I never really looked close enough at watches to try to determine if someone was wearing a fake or not. It seems to be the "rep crowd" that tends to dissect and dwell on the authenticity of someone's time piece. In other words, people who have the genuines, don't give a shit.
