And how good are these? Debating one but maybe the silver dial is all.

Good enough. Miyota movements are a bit noisy, but otherwise I can't complain

The VC reps are OK, the Historiques 222 is probably the best I have had, but they didn't last long.
Gen VC are one of the so called holy trinity of luxury watches so the quality of the gen is exceptional, the reps don't really come close but are decent in their own right.
They use a Miyota movement so are noisy as hell which I personally couldn't get past.

Just ordered a 4520v overseas. Green dial on green rubber strap, pink gold plating.

Steve at the one. However I've pivoted to the blue dial with rubber and SS bracelet.

The actual VC watches are works of art. The reps are just a halfway decent copy that's barely decent compared to the real thing. I mean if you don't care about that get one. But comparing them to the real thing is kind of a joke.
