I like that strap! Where did you get it if I may ask?

Anyone who bought recently has qc pics to share? Interedted to know if they fixed the lume issue. Mine came with the lume issue and although im not bothered by it, it was quite obvious to my eyes.

I approved mine the day before i saw Brummers picture on the 26th. Wasn't in stock but was ordered in from puretime. Previously they sent me QC pics for a regular BB ... mistakes happen i guess!

It does look much better. But the crown tube is still too long, isn't it?

Looks good.
Meaning there is a new batch with the lume issue solved.
The crown tube length is something I find way less of an issue.
Might go for it now.

The crown tube issue is way more important to me..Once you see the gen in the metal, you won't be able to unsee it in the rep.

It's absolutely stunning, the crown tube is a non-issue and the lume was fixed on my watch to a point where I can't see any difference in any lighting.
I would say it's a NWBIG, but I've never seen a genuine one - it's still an absolutely amazing watch on its own!
The only thing I had trouble with was one link on the bracelet gave me a _really_ hard time unscrewing it, but otherwise the bracelet is great too! All the features are there!
