The "K" on "MARK" seems to have a tiny defect but it's virtually invisible. Spotted it on my screen and not in real life 
Nice, Kenny ! Damn...it seems every watch is different...what am I supposed to do now??? I know:
wait for the updated spitfire 3878 from ZF (next year)

Indeed. Different dials, spacings, crowns, fonts? The ****** this one up properly...
it looks like the dial is better? did it has the same problem like got rotate to the left? spacings looks fine. how about the sunburst effect?

Yep it's the first batch.
I hope they do a proper version with the correct fonts / spacing / slight sunburst.

Just a quick casebacks comparison (click on the picture and select the zoom to have a better resolution)
SW seems a bit better in terms of drawing accuracy.

Here's a couple of shot from my light box. This one is from MK, came with 2 cards as well as an outer plastic with the word "MK" printed on it
It's a beauty , just find the watch a little light weight.

I just revisited this thread after 2 weeks and it seems like the consensus has changed from liking the 2nd mk batch to liking the 1st mk batch again.
Guess the main consideration is regarding the sunburst(or lack of it).
Regardless, Kenny's pics looks the best, and ultimately I believe it boils down to how the pics were taken..
Just my 2cts worth.
