What are the key differences between ZF, GF, & VF? (JLC Master Ultra Thin Moon)

Indeed your 6 o’clock marker seems off ..

finding a good example from both factories is so hard on this model, especially when viewing QC large pics. I went through 6 pieces before settling on one, all for having slightly crooked/misplaced mostly at markers at 6 or 12. Yours at 6 for example not pointing at the 16 date dot, However... when I finally received mine which was still not perfect, once in hand it was not noticeable on the wrist. Sometimes we need to take a chill pill and accept the limitations, it's still a great piece, I just wish mine would come back in time for Christmas as I am dying to see prof's work on my crystal.

Shame he does not respond to my last couple of emails when asking for an update, but this is quite usual with him.

I agree to an extent. But this one is too glaring. I’ve asked for another, so fingers crossed .

TD has acquired another GFv2 already and it’s good so I’ve accepted it. Now I’ll need to wait for triangular shipping over Xmas.

For those who who already own the watch, how do you accurately set the moonphase?

Setting the moon phase

the Master Moon watch has a moon phase display. it is cor-rected using the corrector at 8 o’clock, which allows the disc to jump forward by one-day. Use the corrector provided as follows: each press moves the disc one day forward. in order to cor-rect the moon phases accurately, calculate the number of days that have elapsed since the last full moon using the calendar at the end of this user manual and, using the corrector provided, centre the moon in the aperture, then move the disc forwards according to the number of days that have elapsed since the last full moon

GF (silver dial) vs ZF (gray dial)

I’ve handled more than most. To my eyes the overall quality, shine, beauty is the same between the two factories. If you compare pictures, you might conclude that one factory is better than the other but in real life and for all intents and purposes, they look the same to my eyes, with respect to the important details (dial, crystal, finish etc).

Having said that the GF strap feel marginally better than ZF

I received QC pics of my ordered ZF today - seems to be everything fine so far. :happy:

2 hours later I did this:


arty: arty: arty:

received my GF V2 and impressed with the look of it but stuggling to keep ticking and set the date and moonphase (maybe I should move more lol)

Is there a video showing what position the crown should be in to wind the watch and set the date and moon phase?

How did you order the strap? I just get a box asking for s reference number

I just entered a ref number which is on my rep (e.g.: for Master Ultra Thin 176.8.21.S ) and they showed me the straps that fit to my watch ...

But you can only order it at Eurpean Time 10:00 - 17:00 ... otherwise there will be a windows with „Contact our Concierge“

Just try it at different times ... you can also search for the gen watch model and then click directly on strap ... but the time is important.

I ordered one month ago 1 and received it 2 days later - and then I tried 2 weeks later for another one and it took some tries (different times) til I got directly to the order ... strange, but it works

I actually want to sell my JLC MUT Moon GF V2 that I bought from Trusty Time. Please contact me if you are interested. I prefer to sell to Dutch people so you can actually pick it up and we arrange a smooth transaction.

Use a tooth pick and the pushers on the case

To check the moon position download an app called 'The Moon' and check where it is in relation to its phase

Thanks. I've figured out the date and moonphase now. You actually get a cool little tool with the GF rep to activate the pushers. I have a problem with either the power reserve or the crown though. Watch will stop if I take it off at night. Have tried to wind it but it doesnt seem to do much unfortunately - not sure if I am winding the crown in the right position?
