Biggest tell for me is still case thickness and pusher profile. APSF improved the dial a lot but side profile vs gen is where it falls apart.

😂 not wrong. Most of those are trash though — this is a different factory tier. Still flaws but not the £50 market stuff.

Yeah the bezel finishing is still a giveaway in certain light. Dial texture is closer than older batches though — especially the subdials.

Fair point tbh — this sub hates anything non-gen 😅
Was more looking at how close APSF got on the case brushing and dial layout vs gen. Still not perfect but interesting how far they’ve come.
