Pics incoming. I've noticed this dial not only changes color depending on lighting IRL, but the cameras I've used don't really know how to capture the tones of the dial either. I haven't quite had a dial like this yet. The PPF v4 dial comes close, but this is very odd. I've edited one of the direct light photos to try and capture the greenish hue it has in direct sunlight. It's still not 100%, but very close to what it looks like.

Thanks a lot ;-)

The macro online pics is increasing the magnitude of this issue. When the crown is fully tight on the rep, it doesn’t seem to an issue at all (observed from wrist distance). For me the sunken moonphase (observed at some angles) and wrong side positioning of clasp and bigger issues. But then again…to each his/her own ;)

In the same boat,
I think a few of us rejected the same watch or at least the same batch of watches

I just ordered mine.

What were the flaws that led you guys to reject?

Did your TD give you an estimated time frame?

Most flaw I’ve seen is:

-misaligned date subdial hand
-crooked 3 or 9 o’clock makers

Some dials look too blue to me but not sure if it’s just mightn’t.

For those that have received their 5712, what do the pushers on the side at 4 o'clock and 8 o'clock do. One I am assuming is for the moon phase, if so, which one, probably the 4 o'clock based on other reps with this movement. What does the 8 o'clock pusher control?

How about on the gen, what do the pushers control and which ones do what function?

Ok I watched the video on Trusty and it appears the 4 o'clock pusher moves the moon phase as I expected. In the video he doesn't push the 8 o'clock pusher in, so I am going to assume it is non functioning.

If anyone can confirm please do. Thanks.
