I am always particularly gentle with the crown because in the end it is a question of wear and tear. Those screw down crown threads are very delicate on any watch, rep or gen.

Received and approved my QC pics this week. Can't wait to receive that beauty. Dust on the dial will be cleaned by TD before shipment. :thumbsup:

Somehow ZF messed up the center seconds hand on the BP 5009-12 recently. The white back tip of the seconds hand is much too short, what is an instant tell.
@ZF: Please correct the center seconds hand again!

Aahhhrrggg! Totally missed that info and thought the ZF Big Pilot is halfway OK out of the box. My weekend's ruined...

Its something no one will notice. I didnt see it either. Say its a custom second hand, gen is too big looks ugly. Lol See im sleeping better already.
Just kidding, I don't really care. The real second hand definitely looks worse.
Plus its a easy fix. Just get a different second hand. Easy swap even for a biggener. Just get a watch tool kit off Amazon and they include hand removal tools.
