On my Milgauss is crown facing the right way up, too.

 

If it is gen, he must have some papers, box .... if not and he still insist that is a gen, suggest inspection by AD :dingleberry-nemesis:

At the risk of embarrassing myself on a watch I'm not that familiar with... I'm going to say that's a gen.

Thanks, buddy! If I'm going down, at least it's with a guy with a submarine!

 

Granted, the CHS Noobfactory GMT II was one of the best Rolex reps in recent years, but I remember a few tells from By-Tor's old review: Weak date mag and a slightly narrow bezel. (I also seem to remember the insert sitting a bit differently on the rep bezel, but I could be wrong.) You can only see those tells on a straight-on shot, so... score!

 

Of course, your mate ought to just open it up and see. Much easier.

More pics are needed. That crown looks too small to me.

LOL. I'll make sure to give you a heads up before we dive.

Yeah more pics and better ones needed. And open it up mate - simple and pretty diagnostic.

 

On a different note - just shows us how good Rolex reps are nowadays, that we are having this discussion among this forum's experts!

If it's GEN what should he PAY for it no box or papers

Without box/papers? I wouldn't pay much over USD 4000.

 

In London, I guess that works out to about 2500-2600 guineas, and two groats.

Insist it's taken to an AD, have the caseback popped and check the movement and inspect the dial/bracelet/case etc, it's the safest way.

...from what I can make out from the pic provided, the handstack seems correct, be aware there are unreliable CHS rep movements out there, but along with this and the tightness of those end links it may be gen...need better, clearer pics to be sure though...
