Just got my QC pics I'm happy with the alignment and Sel's. Gave it the green.

Generally speaking in fulfilled and I’m going to get the approval

2nd QC. Rejected first due to crooked crown.

Bezel alignment could be better, chrono seconds hands is not perfectly centred but not too far off either, easy enough to fix both. Crown offset to the left maybe by a hair. Going to GL. Could be better. Could be worse.

The more i look at those photos the more i want to accept mine already rejected watch,it looks like batches getting worse and worse
my rejectet which i will most likely accept at the end
will realign bezel

Sorry mani have two noob v4 with4130 noob in my hands.
This movement not smooth like the vs3135.
it is even very noisy.

I have three Noob 4130, five VS3135 and one CF4130.
Of course there are some individual differences, but not enough to make a problem.
Two of my Noob and CF is very smooth, one of my VS3135 is clearly noisy than others.

Hi guys,

Couple of questions as I just received my QC pics
1) is 263 a too low amplitude or is this acceptable for a 4130 clone ? Could it be because it was not wound enough?

2) how difficult is it for a modder to realign the chrono second hand if it's not resetting exactly to 0?

Thanks!

How is it misaligned, based on this photo?
12 and 6 o`clock looks to be straigh, and asuming the bezel is OK, 3 and 9 would be aswell?

240 marker on the bezel looks lower than what I'm used to see.

Hi just got my QC photos, what is the optimal amplitude for this watch? Mines showing at 256deg, which is the lowest I've seen so far....
Any causes for concern?

 

[greenbeans]

Wanted you guys' take on it. The chrono seconds hand is off to the left. Also hour marker at 6? Or am I being too nitpicky?

Reset position of chrono seconds hand is concerning me, it is off a click, but worth rejecting over?

Only you can answer that for yourself.

Indeed, almost all the markers on the left side of the dial do not seem perfectly centered. It may be an effect of the pic

2) easy, I can do it myself. Just cost you money

Seems off-center chrono hand is quite common. You can do a simple hack to fix it by running the chrono and stopping it where it should be. It's not a real fix but if you can live with that, it's something you can wait to get fixed when it's service time.

It's low for a 4130. Check if it's fully wound?

I've not had lower than 284, although most end up being around 300+ after a service.

Thanks for the input. Really appreciate it. I think I'll RL. The chrono hand by itself annoys me, especially knowing it's there, I was debating an RL, but especially with the combination of the amplitude. I'll take my chances.
Sigh. Here we go again.

Its maybe the end of the 1st batch and TDs try to feed the previously RLed units to new customers for flush their stocks?

Nope trusty only had 2 samples,this mine and one guy here on forum i cant remember now,we got it first from trusty

Hope you didn't accept it! So many issues on this one, bro.

Yeah, RL'ed it.
Chrono second hand off. Hour marker at 6 crooked. Amplitude really low.

For those lurking, I'd recommend holding off for a little while. There seems to be a lot of issues with this batch on here and Reddit.
