TDs are not stupid, they choose the slimmer looking dates to take photos. 2x dates are always thicker

Dw does look better its a easy fix though so if you was to pick flaws you want something easy to fix. Better the Devil you know.

He said he will ship as soon as it's available, if the later dates are too thick i can always swap the movement to VR3135, if the later dates are fine i will focus on replacement crystal, bezel and maybe dial if the price is right down the line.


Regarding the crown guards i can live with them, they're not the best but I've seen much worse.

Idea just crossed my mind regarding to the dial. Could indices be transferred from zzf dial to LV with proper reluming of course? Are they same size?

I heard once on the ZZF thread that the clean dial marker are slightly bigger than gen markers.

So they are making a no-rehaut version in 904L with AR cyclops? Doesn't seem very period correct but overall, the last pictures look much better than the first batch. This might end my quest for a JF.

Ah ok so he hasn't gave you a date of when its being released. This is driving me crazy waiting for this 5 digit. In literally checking everyday now. Other than the date wheel the rest of the watch looks well made

Trying to get a hold of the dial on its own is a ball ache

Dw looks kinda thick to me. Shows you we worry about these tiny things on our reps and gens aren't "perfect"
