ARF SD43 904L 126600 review (many pics)

[armedcor]

I have one of these and absolutely love it; I have noticed though that a lot of these have popped up in the classifieds lately...don't know if they know something I/we don't or they're getting bad examples that shouldn't have made it past the TD's QC or the size is too much for them...

Seems a lot of people buy these and can't handle the size.

Hey guys can you help me with my QC pics.... It seems like the rehaut is misaligned and the cyclops looks weird. Can this be a V1? I ordered a V2 but the rehaut looks like the one from the V1.

Thanks in advance!

looks good accept it that little misaligned thing you can easy fix yourself thats not a "hard" task. The rest of the watch looks perfect

Hard to say, but datewheel, magnification and bezel looks fine!!

Bezel is first style: Sharp teeth

How do I fix that misalignment?

 

[Tigerdragon]

remove the backside then unsrew the movement (but only slightly) then move the movement with the dial a little bit and screw it back it and the problem is fixxed.

I ordered the watch from Puretime on Monday and got my QC's yesterday.

Dont forget to unscrew crown all the way out. In time setting position.

 

[Doc brown]

Don't forget to pull crown all the way out to time setting position when you align.

And remember the date might not line up with the cyclops once you're done!

Hi everybody,
I just ordered one too, I can not wait to get it.
Do you think that the original 2824 by ARF is sufficient, or should you buy a ETA 2824 TOP grade behind!
and for the lucky ones who have one right now, how do you find the bracelet? Should it be placed in an ultrasonic cleaner or put oil for more finesse or something else. In short, if you have some suggestions my friends, I'm interested. thank you

My opinion is that the original 2824 is fine and you can keep it as long as it is working without upgrading
Bracelet is better after oil bath, i do not have ultrasonic cleaning but overall is one of the best bracelets i had
