Post subject:  Is this a gen or a rep
Hi Guys,
Two years ago I've buyed on the web my superocean heritage. It wasn't a new'one, but a watch in a very good condition. The price of the watch was about $1400, cause the deal was without papers or box. I know the superocean is a good repped watch, so please help me to know my watch is gen or rep..
Here some pictures:

It looks OK to me, but the SOH is a very well faked piece, so I can't be certain as I'm not as much a fake expert as a couple of the guys here.

Best wait for Bnewbie or Sharkmouth to weigh in with their opinions.

I'd like to see a case back shot showing the crown indent but I think it's real.

If you can check the date code between the lugs at 6, "33030 B3" is the one I've seen used on reps so that would be a bad sign.

The lume on the rep is very poor so if yours shines out, that's a good sign.

Lume dots on the rep are also infamous for being off-centre. This can occasionally happen with a gen but centred lume dots is another good sign.

Lume looks too off and rounded to me.
As Sharky says, post a photo of a case back with focus on the crown.
