Hey All,

after some waiting received QC pics from puretime.
Ordered IW500710 ZF with "New IWC 52010 Movement Clone. Base Movement: Asian 23J automatic movement; Decoration: Platinum plated movement plate and rotor which are made according to the genuine movement, the best looking IWC 52010 Movement Clone at the moment."

I can't tell from the pictures if its it or not, can you help?

It looks like a decorated asian stock movement. They send what they offer. Asian 23j movements are the cheapest stuff on earth. They wont lie about it. Fake barrels also support their claim. Clone just means the arrangement and optics of the deco plate. A multi barrel watch has more rubies.

If it "is not"... I guess you mean if it is generally 1:1 as they say. There are worlds between a gen IWC and a clone. Everyone with eyes on IWC will see that. The other 99,9% of tje world just dont care.

For me it looks ok.
