It's interesting how polarizing the fake/rep argument is. With the reactions on this board (and others) you'd think that genuine owners feel physical pain every time a fake is bought. I've considered purchasing a daytona rep and still might. Why? The Daytona is gorgeous, and I don't have tens of thousands of dollars to spend climbing the Rolex hierarchy by buying OP's and such. I wouldn't advertise it as gen either.
It almost seems the distaste for reps comes from not only the copycat styling, but also that current production reps rival top dog brands using japanese movements. At the end of the day though it's metal jewelry folks- don't get too bent out of shape
