Interesting, I’ve handled a few gens but never seen the rep… personally I’m more of a 5712 fan, the Royal Oak is a better looking watch, but it just doesn’t suit me
For rolex it looks and feels alike. For AP you can tell, because there are parts that actually in white gold I.e the screws and hands. It looks more " alive" but that's if you compare them next to each other of course.
I love these comparisons. I find them very insightful for the novice and hobbyists alike. I’m not sure why exactly, I’m sure it varies from case to case. But I bet the owners of the genuine artifact would like to see these as well… or maybe not. They may have buyers remorse. The 95+% savings. Or rather spent. May not bother them at first, but it cannot be unseen. Many or most will appreciate their genuine work of art the rest will sell the collection and become a rep junkie. Trust me.. I did it myself.
Ok the cyclops on Batman might be misalligned just a bit (or maybe it's a different pic angle) but other than that I can't see any difference 😯. And what's different with the rep crystal? Rep is CF?
Rep is cf v2 and crystal is a bit bumpy. Needs to get gen gasket and gen crystal because it's very noticeable, I'd say the rep has 2mm bump on the crystal.
Can't decide if I like the Batgirl or Batman more 🤔
You can always swap the bracelet whether it's gen or rep. Gen bracelet / jubilee is 2k I believe.
Any difference in the “ feeling “ between the a’p’s
Feels pretty similar. But gen has its own " shine" in real life. Picture can't do justice.

Batgirl is definitely the better of the two. More of an eye catcher on jubilee.
Exactly 👍👍👍

Can you send me the link where you got the ap’s?
Any TD can supply you!
Which one of the Rolexes (if any) is gen? Can't spot any difference on these pics 😉
Batgirl is gen. The only visible difference is the crystal and cyclops.

The gasket and crystal will cost a fortune 😯 Edit: genuine Rolex saphire of course. If it's even available for purchase.
I believe gasket is only $50 and gen crystal only 300-500! It's been awhile I haven't checked.
Still, these two parts cost as much as whole rep. But, I get the pursuit of perfection 😉
What about the bezel movement on the gmts?
Right! The bezel movement is rough on rep! It's instant tell if someone were to twist it.
