scope 3 Posted February 8, 2012 Wow, great post. Pretty damn close. Thanks for sharing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
myaz 3 Posted February 8, 2012 Dang it, I can't tell which one's the gen because none has the hands at 10:10 I've got a blue smurfmariner from BK as well and love it. Good to see the pearl is real close to the gen as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

crossbones 0 Posted February 8, 2012 Always RR Rep on Right Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Luthier 1 Posted February 8, 2012 Strange thing - rep. has more "sunburst" dial. End links are different too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crossbones 0 Posted February 8, 2012 Strange thing - rep. has more "sunburst" dial. End links are different too. The GEN is an older model with diffrent endlinks and drilled lugs. The sunburst is actually spot on but the pics dont show that as well. I need to take better pics... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Luthier 1 Posted February 8, 2012 That's what I said... :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
P4GTR 0 Posted February 8, 2012 That TT BK is incredible. I'm pretty sure you could hand it to me in the wild and I would pronounce it gen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sam77 0 Posted February 8, 2012 well it is very nice i like it, however the gold tone on the rep looks more like a 14k gold the gen is 18k but who cares ...........................enjoy :yikes: :death star: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jeffw69 0 Posted February 8, 2012 Very nice! How much did you drop on that? I'm guessing about a $thousand? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dssd 0 Posted February 8, 2012 Thanks for sharing these pics I'm now going to hunt one of these down stunning watch Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kwatch 0 Posted February 8, 2012 Man oh man that looks dead balls on! great stuff from BK. Now if only they would rep the LV Hulk submariner, I'd be all over it. Lovely pictures! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dingle 57 Posted February 8, 2012 looks great, the main tell is the hour hand...when are they going to get this right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Luthier 1 Posted February 8, 2012 Rep. crown is much bigger, and gen. bezel is significantly thinner. Also, different clasps. But overall - quite close. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Leigh 0 Posted February 8, 2012 Dam that looks good to me! Mind me asking how much that rep costs?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nickee_2dS 0 Posted February 8, 2012 Oh....I'm a donky....I can't see differences! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Luthier 1 Posted February 8, 2012 Even donkey can see it: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nickee_2dS 0 Posted February 8, 2012 Oh...the spring bar! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dendo 93 Posted February 8, 2012 Superb - these reps are getting so good - with a reliable swiss movement in there it gets to the point of who really cares?? But those differences once pointed out start to bug you - spring bars, bracelet end links, crown, hour and minute hands, AR - but we are nerds guys - no one else would give a flying F$%^K Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crossbones 0 Posted February 9, 2012 Most of those dffrences you guys see are because the GEN is a much older model and the Rep is based on the newer models. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
