Hi, what's the story with the blue tint,? is it something that Gens have and people just don't like, or is it a dead giveaway of a rep. personally I dislike it, cheers.

Some rep AR (anti-reflective coating) has a blue tint. Yes, it bugs most of us - some watches are relatively okay, but it varies from model to model. My experience is that it seems to have gotten a little better of late (at least, I haven't had one that was overly blue in quite a while), but YMMV.

 

Be careful what you buy - read others' reviews. You'll soon find out if there is a problem with a particular model

The AR can be stripped if necessary - although at a cost. Alternatively, you can also have the AR re-done by someone like FineDD over at RWI (also at a cost, obviously).

 

Personally I have one watch that has had the AR stripped, but the others are all okay...
