RichardMiami 4 Posted October 13, 2012 Is anyone bothered by the 10:10 time, which is a signature of real Gen watches? Maybe it's just me, but I don't trust that it is a Rep. urban legend. The reason that watch dealers (gen, rep, whatever) use 10:10 is because of two things: 1. tradition - it's always been done that way 2. marketing - the hands frame the manufacturers logo usually just under the 12. means nothing.

spolen23 0 Posted October 13, 2012 I wasn't suggesting anything. Just pointing out something I had heard about watch photos. If its not true then it's not true. No harm meant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KeNnY 29 Posted October 13, 2012 Is anyone bothered by the 10:10 time, which is a signature of real Gen watches? Maybe it's just me, but I don't trust that it is a Rep. The rep is so good that it looks like gen !!! Just see the deepness of the engraving on bezel insert then you know it is rep. and another thing, if TD would do this, he would be automatically banned from all our boards. Jesus KeNnY how many g**damn DSSD have you bought already? A man's just got two wrists! -Mach THis is the thing.... non, zero, nada :( Looks good. Wonder how the rest of the bracelet looks. I think with no issues there as personally I think they all have same source for bracelets I believe Christmas will come early for Kenny this year. hahahaha depends on money ! How I said I already spent this month 600 USD for watches, soo... I need to wait a bit This shit is awsome! sure is mate !! SURE IS ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I even heard theory about that the hands are placed in a \ / postion beacouse it resemble to a smile...! LOL Anyway... I like bracelet endings - they fit nicely... but those "dremell"-ed movement bezel holder REALLY pokes the eye. BR Haltec Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LondonBB 0 Posted October 13, 2012 I tend to agree with Del, its impossible to really tell from those pics as they have been tidied too much. The pearl does look better but not gen like. The one on the gen is a domed recessed mini crystal whereas this appears flat. Also the OGEV etc engraving on the rehaut doesn't look crisp. Another element that looks to me wrong is that I think the crown guards are too big, either that or the crown is too short - only a bit but noticeable. The only real way to evaluate the watch would be to buy one and see it in the metal as you can't rely on the pics to tell the entire story Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LightGeek 25 Posted October 13, 2012 Thanks mate, any way you can get that clasp printing shot? I have two things in the shopping cart at TS and I'd add this in if I can see what it looks like... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fatarms 7,807 Posted October 14, 2012 Timex sets all their watches to 10:09:36 for their pictures. Just a bit of trivia :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grimmi 1 Posted October 14, 2012 Thanks for posting that... So you reckon that bezel and pearl is better than a Trevor one? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bash64 17 Posted October 14, 2012 I don't like posts like this. When I came here, I thought Panerai looked stupid. I am waiting for my second one to arrive. When I came here, I said I would never get a rep Rolex. I have 2 Subs in transit. I don't really want to talk about how I am feeling bout Kenny's DSSD, as I need to slow down and take a little buying break. I ordered some stuff to make a custom watch box, but it is already full and I have not received (or made) it yet. I had to lie to my wife twice in the last three days. To settle her down when she figures it out, I ordered her a surprise J12. That could make everything okay or it could have something other than the desired effect. Thanks for the post Kenny. Have to edit my "watches to get" list again. I may need group therapy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kolchak 17 Posted October 14, 2012 If Kenny is this excited about a new DSSD I'd consider getting another one. There is another member here (that really likes Rolex & Panerai) who could do a good comparison. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
