JM glad to see you are still in the rep collecting. I thought I remember seeing some posts where you were selling your reps and going for gens.

By the way thank you for providing insight into what to look for on the RM. I will post QC pics if I have questions about the bezel pattern.

I’m still in buddy. I’ve ordered this RM, with that I’ll have three reps that I’ll keep. It’s good to have them. An unobtainable piece like this RM, a beater watch and one I got as a gift. It’s a box queen really :)

Your welcome to do so.

JM will you do a review of this RM? Would look forward to it!

I could’ve done it, another member also asked me to do so. But I normally have a rule not to review them if I haven’t seen a gen like it in irl. And I haven’t seen a NTPT watch irl yet. Therefore it wouldn’t be a good enough review IMO.

Actually i changed my mind regarding right after i posted the pictures. Not because of what you are mentioning. But because the whole upper part of the bezel is "too empty" it doesn't have the same complexity in the pattern as the other one's posted here and on TD sites have. So i've rejected it.

Just read this post. Now I understand JM. Thanks I will keep this in mind when reviewing the QC pics I receive.

Any chance someone can post some pictures of the V2 and V3 for comparison. Of course I ordered V3 but just good to see the effort put in by ZF on this piece. Sunlight pics would be best.

Just to be certain you are receiving V3 from the TD, clear/white jewel on front of dial at 5 o'clock, V2 has red/pink jewel. Besides clear difference in NTPT case on V3 what else to look for on V3 to make sure you aren't receiving V2. TDs do make mistakes sometimes receiving previous versions from factories and make honest mistakes when sending out QC pics.

For the one who feels the urgent to go Franken. The picture gives a good comparrision with the gen bezel.

Found on Chrono24.

If you really think that a gen RM bezel pops up on the grey market by a private person out of a sudden at the same time the ZF V3 got released then you have true faith in humanity mate haha

stuttering second hand too. in the above video. I know it is the seiko movement fighting with the weight of the second hand and it won't affect time keeping. But it would bother me. But that is just personal.

Think getting the Seiko serviced would help or that's just physics?
