rusky27 1,823 Posted July 16, 2014 (edited) Not got a v2 but rather nice V1 I can lend you if that helps, perhaps you could do a V1 - V2 - GEN covering all the bases? Edited July 16, 2014 by rusky27 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rusky27 1,823 Posted July 16, 2014 (edited) ^ Fear not Like a Johnny boden handbag the metallic finish peels off to reveal a nice distressed leather ahem so I've been told Edited July 16, 2014 by rusky27 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Del 4,484 Posted July 16, 2014 Initial impressions? Rep is garbage - you need to buy the gen. genuine initial impressions Honestly mate, the rep looks great but I've not really studied them yet. The gen dial seems far crisper, probably helped by a better crystal I suppose. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NFleischer 4,355 Posted July 16, 2014 Initial impressions? Rep is garbage - you need to buy the gen. genuine initial impressions Honestly mate, the rep looks great but I've not really studied them yet. The gen dial seems far crisper, probably helped by a better crystal I suppose. +1 Also the dial looks darker giving it more pop me thinks. Overall its a very good rep, especially when the gen is not on the wrist at the same time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Realism 72 Posted July 16, 2014 nothing ever beats a gen copy, except for the prices itself lol... hundreds vs thousands Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
