Posted my original QC photo in the other thread, but thought I should post here since more of us are comparing photos in this thread.

And I just received a photo under natural sunlight.

What do you all think?

I must say the color difference between my phone and laptop is ridiculous. On my phone it looks yellow-green as heck, but when I transferred the photo to my computer it looks less bad.. So darn confusing.. Which color on which device do I trust then? :frusty:

The other thread is the correct place for this photo. This thread is for the new models with gold.

What’s funny is Li told me it’s supposed to be YG.
:confused:
He prolly sent you a sample QC of an RG by mistake. Personally I've yet to see any QC for YG. The colour looks to be gen like though, when I saw it first come out. I obsess over Minor details. I think you're safe, brother :)

Still, now you can ask him for sample YG QC pictures

It looks great to me, and I think you'll definitely like it more in person. That's only my opinion though :)

It looks awesome mate. I’m not worried about the imaginary lume problem :). I can’t wait to get mine. I just need to sort out the YG/RG issue to be sure I’m getting YG like I want :D

Thanks mate. Ordered Tuesday and now it's on its merry way to my greedy hands. Will take pics when I receive it. :punk:

QC Pic from JTime

What do you guys think, struck by the infamous yellow lume issue or nah?

I think this slightly yellow look is an illusion...

If you see Eatdirtfartdust pics he posted
Here are my QC pics for anyone wanting to compare.
They look great to me! I’m no seasoned veteran though.

his looks the same at same angle as yours. But when you see the video of diagnostic and when watch is flat on table the pips looks white..hardly any or no discolour at all.

Anyway I'm not put off and have pulled the trigger on a YG/SS model, from Steve at Theonewatches, who has RG and YG available.
Think the YG is new in.

PT is listing both. I guess any TD could source either version if the factory supplies both versions.

Is this RG or YG? It looks rose but not as much as some other RG watches.
It's rose gold.

The trick to telling them apart is looking at the darker gold sections of the watch. Yellow gold will be sunny and happy still but rose gold turns a little sensual and darker still. RG also has that Arabian pink sand look.

Hope that helps somewhat

The one Li showed me and said was YG must be RG then. He probably just made a mistake. This one is awesome in it’s own way but personally I prefer the brighter YG.

I’m anxious to get mine.
i greenlit the purchase about 48 hours ago and haven’t heard anything.
It feels like longer.
It took Li about 3 days to get to me

Hong Kong protests, raids on ARF and JF and heavy traffic have slowed down his usual super speedy QC.

I hope you get yours soon brother
