Damn this thing is awesome... Steelfish Question

Recommended Posts

Skrimps

I just got my Steelfish New Breed H Factory from Toro in and I have to say DAMN this thing is freaking nice!! I was sitting in my office and started looking around online at some Gens and for the life of me I really do not see any differences between this one and the Gen version. Now keep in mind I know I am a noob but have done a good amount of lurking on the forms and have not seen a thread about the differences. I figured I would ask a few of you pros and see if anyone could point them out to me. Are there any really big signs that would scream this is a rep?

 

And since I know threads are pointless without pictures here are a few of the watch. :bow:

So is the best way to go about fixing the bezel is to get a Gen one or is there a Rep one that matches?

I've seen a gen with a slight left justified date, and the bezel font is near perfect.

bezel is fine.

Or.... Enjoy the watch, don't give the bezel a second thought and start choosing your next rep?

Haha damn, now I am going to be looking all day.

 

Actually I don't want to mess this thing up it really is a solid looking watch. I am glad I ended up going with the white face on it just looks super clean to me. But then again the blue does look good.... oh hell, looks like now I have to buy that one as well. Damn this watch collecting hobby!! I already have a U-Boat coming in from Balad1 that I have to find someway to hide from the wife.

Ha, I have actually bought a few for me (Daytona, Pro-Hunter) that I did not like so I gave to her. Slowly she is coming to the darkside and enjoying the watches.

 

I need to find a nice looking strap for this one though. Not that crazy about the one that came with it.
