Got mine as well - all good...

Because of you I decided to check spam folder and found my QC!
Thanks you)

I paid a week ago and I've been told that I should receive QC in 5-7 days.

I ordered and paid on 11/20 and have yet to receive qc pics.

I’m just being impatient.

 

[maxik78]

So this is gonna be my first replica ever
I read a lot on a forum while I was waiting for a QC. Now I have concerns about mine. I asked them for another picture but probably gonna reject this one
I also compare it to other's QC and mine looks the worse
You guys wanna see them?

Looks like the others apart from showing the "28", but honestly I don't think the others have a better 28, assume it's the same on whole batch.. I'd only ask if they can screw the crown in or if the stem is a little too long, apart from that it's good..

This looks typical of this batch so far, very good apart from the xtal and date wheel. The rest of the watch is so good it needs these changing, the black hole is an instant tell.
The crown is not fully wound in (this could be the stem or tube) the Amplitude is a little low but it may not be fully wound, ask for another timergrapher shot with the movement fully wound and the crown fully screwed in. The markers are much better on these now with slightly rounded corners, the 12 marker is nice and straight and the sel's are good too. The bezel insert is a tad left but this is an easy fix. I don't think you will get a better one on this batch.

 

[maxik78]

here some pictures with the crown fully screwed in and more date numbers





acmcc BiH855 Agree with you about DW and Xtal. I am really thinking about changing the DW... Will see them in real life and then I'll decide if I wanna change DW or Xtal)

 

[cutfox]

To bad for the DW, anyway is a very good replica

Do you think this WSO datewheel would fit the ARF?

Get a picture of the hands on the hour! See what alignment is like. What were your concerns??

To be honest I can’t see you’ll get any better at the moment.
