johnpaul21 please follow the rules. Posting QC pictures without a certain question or particular flaw you want advise to - it is forbidden.

What i have noticed - the hands are less green than the previous batch, nice.

do yourself a favor and please edit your post or ask a question regarding an issue you want to be answered :)

My bad, should've read the rules more carefully :( . Thank you though! I wasn't initially thinking of reluming it, but it looks okay for now.

To be fair, I asked him to post them. So don’t be too hard with him! :)

I like what I see on the first sight. The DW does looks different to the one with Asian 2824,
Right?

Ryan confirmed, that I will get my QC images tomorrow. So let’s hope for the best!

Just wanted to kindly advise him before one of the mods would have been doing it ;)

now everything is perfectly fine.

If you want to - ask ryan to send you better pictures from the dial itself.

Would help us too to get a better impression of the newer hands (if green or not)

Does "Swiss ETA 2824" mean that it comes with an actual ETA movement?

Regards.

Hey guys, just got QC pics. Any flaws you guys see? I feel like the dial might not be as "wet" as people say they are? Will also probably get it relumed as well. Also does the 12 hour marker look a little squished? Or is that just me.

looks good just the regular flaws like the green hands. But nothing wrong with it like damaged etc.

Please see my QC image. It looks like, the whole dial is misaligned counterclockwise?!

And the hands are greener than from Johnpaul21 as well. :-/

Could you maybe get the TD to take it Directly facing the camera? And also take it at different angels. Mine looked misaligned during the QC but it was actually alright

Not going to lie.. your 45 and 35 markers really do look off, the 55 is ok imo. From what I've been reading, albeit limited, is that jf QC has generally been pretty okay, probably seek some clarifications and ask for a change w your TD?

They will replace it if necessary. Bought it from Ryan as always. He is a good guy!

Thank you buddy! I took a gamble w it as only the hands were relumed. Only used C1, the drawback is the lume on the markers are now stronger than the hands, but oh well.. even the gen divers are known for their inherently weak lume, so not really a tell imo!

Great to hear it, at least there is a pretty good recourse :)
I hope everything turns out smooth and fine for you buddy.
