Thanks for watching

I am with Tigerdragon on this one. Most of the blue dials I've seen have bad printing on the word "made", specifically letter "e". And the minute marker next to 12 o'clock is not even noticeable, like at all. I would accept it.

I am still waiting for the third round of my black 15400 QC pics. First one had missing hour marker. Second one had brushing done sideways. If I receive QC like this one you have, I would accept it. To me it looks better than most I've seen. You got aligned logo, correct brushing, aligned markers... good lume, etc.

Wow stunning piece!
This is amazing.
Would wish all of them would come out of the box (Ryan and Co.) looking like that.

Hmm alright, might go for this one then, just awaiting more pics then i might accept it, thanks for the help!

Alright =)

Last thing, what do you think about this:

11.8s/d (pretty high) 231° (pretty low)

A very cool reddit user (member there as well) pointed me off this flaws.


Thanks

Adjusting a movement to under a 1 sec/day is very easy.
For the amplitude, well could always end up worse... Depends if you are willing the risk.

Yeah so this amplitude isn't good at all and better to refuse this one as well.
Asked another test with the watch fully winded, maybe it gets better amplitude...

I tried on a 15400 in rg with white dial today. Sweet Mary mother of god. The gen sits so much better on my wrist than the thicker jf. They told me less than 12 months on the waiting list for a ss with any dial except the blue

its not that bad, miyotas have tolerance from 30 seconds in official documentation. Accept it there will be no issue trust me.

Talking about amplitude bud, below 250 means servicing needed (searched for results all over the forum and google)
