Hi watch wizards! I came across 520 model and of course there are two major differences. Minute hand is shorter and chrono pushers sticks out way too much, do you guys see any other issue?

Thank you all in advance!

Hi there.

I have a 520 rep from V6 factory.

I also bought a 520 rep from DHgate. The one you have pictured above looks to be like my Gate version.
It was actually a very good rep considering the source, but there were some differences.

The plexi and bezel are the wrong shape and size, the case is a bit fatter, and then the printed lettering a little too bold and white.

I think you may find the engraving codes between the lugs technically incorrect and are laser etched, not engraved. same with the caseback has wrong engravings.

Despite all these, I still thought it was a great rep. Fully working chrono, with that lovely ST19 movement, and the gens are so rare, no one would really know!

I did a comparison thread on these 520 reps with photos side by side, etc over on the RWG.bz forum. I can PM you a link if you wish?

Here are a couple of pics from the thread I posted on the other forum. V6 factory on left, the DHgate version on the right.

It's not that the minute hand is too short, it simply has a long black tip and it may be confusing. Perhaps not the most clever solution when both the dial and hands are black.

The pushers may be a bit longer than normal, but every design has its flaws. I doubt that they are not carefully fitted.

You guys are awesome! Thank you [mention]Simonix [/mention] and [mention]Yoda [/mention] !
