Black Bay 58

The lugs are 20mm, so a 20mm/18mm leather strap would work well. 20mm full strap would be better for a NATO or fabric.

Just got QC photos from TD. What you guys think

Looks good! You probably won't get better with this batch. I had to reject 2 QC watches from Puretime before accepting the 3rd one. I'd ask them if the crown is screwed all the way in though, it looks a little high.

I've been reading up and it looks like this batch has a bunch of QC issues from alignment to pearl issues. The QC i received looks good with the exception of the pearl. This of course could be all in my head as I've been staring at the photos for a good time :shok:

Pearl looks good to me (remember, I rejected 2 watches with pearl issues.) I don’t think you’ll get a better one from this batch.

Which TD?

Puretime. They have been extremely responsive.

Thanks for the 2nd opinion. You start seeing things when you stare at the same picture for an hour.

Puretime. They have been extremely responsive.

The QC pictures are EXTREMELY good quality versus other TD's. Much more easy to spot flaws. These i would definitely accept - looks great !

"V2 updated the hands and dial lume markers are the same color."

V2 is out, the crown tube still elongated:

 

[jackflash]

Would go for one from PureTime. It’s not being touted as “V2”. However, the ZF version they have in stock has addressed the lume and crown height.

 

[Rolorin]

Why would intime get "v2" corrected hands and only puretime gets both corrected hands and tube? It seems unlikely one td would get a different update to another.

The v2/v1 images above seem to be the same image....

I just received my QC photos from I think it looks terrible. can you guys help me with that ?
-Hands and hour markers lume is not the same color
-Scratches on the case and bracelet
-bad printing quality of the serial number.
what do you guys think ?
here is a link to the album with the original QC photos and some photos with my remarks.
would love to hear your thoughts.
thanks!

Looks like one from the first batch. Reject it and request the updated version.

I'd take that link down... includes your full address on the mailing envelope.

And reject for v1 mismatched lume, but I don't think those are all scratches. Note that v2 has a lot of wonky aligned indices when you get second qc.
