There has been several post with QC pics if you read back, and KJ2020 even took the time to piece them together in a pic.

do you need me to hold your hand while you scroll back?

Wonder no one in the community noticed that Sead updated his EU stock list yesterday. There's one V2S sitting in UK up for grabs right away for someone quick without the costly and lengthy triangle shipping from China.

I have the QC pics from him as well it's the one with the lower case c4r clasp code and X not fixed in Rolex.

Good luck to the quickest :)

Not when you live in Hong Kong :) There are tons of shops here that work on reps. We also have a ton of awesome seiko modders. just need to find a good source for the gen parts for the hulk.

Really?? Where?? Mate. Can you share some info?

Guys, a question to you all.
it’s it worth us stocking some of the CF v3 insert? Is this something that people want? Bare in mind CF have put a hefty price tag on it and they will sell for 200usd +shipping.

Let us know.

Hey bro! Out of curiosity, why not keep the ZZF?

That pic looks awesome at this point I could care less about the side by side versus gen. I’m just looking forward for when mine arrives.

The difference with gen seems to be the shade of green under sunlight that is thinner on the zzf. But as you can see colors are good even in sunlight. Bezel bright green with dial black and a little green at the same time.. love the fact that under certain light conditions it looks like a 6 digit kermit

Guys, we will say this. Having a gen xtal installed makes a difference to how the dial looks.

It appears a little dull and less dynamic under the milky rep xtal. compared to how they look under no xtal (we had some here for parts)

One of us just had an ARF franken built with CF dial, gen hands, gen DW with Gen xtal and the dial ( to our eyes) looks considerably different under the gen xtal.

This is the first rep we’ve ever seen where we would say gen hands are not really worth it. The zzf hands are impressive.

My zzf v2s is from the watchmaker to mount the gen crystal. As soon as I pick it up I will post some photos!

They certainly aren’t flat.

We have a thing about hands here. like I said this is the first rep other than (ARF which has nice shape but has brilliant white lume) that the hands are definitely nice enough to not warrant the £300 for a gen set.
