Some pics of my ZF

Thanks for the great pics. Maybe I'm being too optimistic, but it looks like the dial printing is improved over the older shield models, in fact it looks similar in quality to the BB S&G. Anyone else notice this? If they have in fact improved the dial printing I'll probably have to pick one of these up

how's the watch in general?

Does the movement made any noise when shaken?
How does the bezel click?

The movement is great. Quiet like a mouse. The bezel is 80% GEN like and you need to own or have handled a GEN to feel or hear the difference. This is 5 outa 6 stars.

FYI Protip -

Change out the springbars with thicker 1.8mm datejust springbars. The stock ones are too small and my endlinks rattled. The thicker ones I use for my vintage builds fit like a dream.

i sort of feeling it'd be a boring piece albeit very nice and elegant...mmm not sure that's enough to stop me from buying it tho

I would like to pull the trigger but I have the same feeling... on the other hand, the green looks wonderful.
And the bracelet is looking great.

I don't think the watch is boring: the green gives off a different look in different lighting conditions (all good looks, unlike the Hulk reps that a lot of the time give off an ugly olive drab look) and the dial texture really stands out in brighter conditions (I don't describe things well, but it has a gold-dusted look). The bracelet is real nice: the brushing on mine has that white glow/look. Just my opinion, of course.

Its much thicker than a 16610, and also much larger overall. Pretty chunky watch
Uhmmm this is an interesting fact... never tried a BB in real life... for me the perfect size is the 16610... don’t think I’ll be comfortable with a ticker case...
