The sunburst is better than Zzf
But dial color itself is better on Zzf
A combo
Would be insane

Same here. I have a BP Miyota that is IMO the best rep Hulk dial ever made. Transferring the ZZF markers to it is not something for a novice hobbyist but it isn't terribly difficult either. I've done enough marker repairs to be confident in doing it myself.
The deep blacks this dial can reach while still achieving a bright green is still the standard no other dial has attained. Plus no X factor flaw. The Miyota dial will need to be shaved a bit and new feet attached. Another challenge but not a dealbreaker for what should be a great combination dial.

That looks amazing but where can I get the Miyota dial?

They are out of production now bro. I saw one recently M2M, that's the only way now.

The 28xx BP dial is very good imo.
I'm more than happy for mine.
Abduljay købte den af min dealer, men du kan være heldig at finde en M2M
Your watch is freaking awesome bro.

Here’s a pic of a gen 2014 hulk next to a gen 2018 hulk, apologies photo isn’t great but Even here photography depicts there is a difference in colour and they are right next to each other. It’s a headf***k I have mates with gen Hulk’s and from different eras 2012, 2014 and the latest... even they argue that their dial colours are different when they are right next to each other comparing lol. Even The slightest angle makes a difference to how the colour changes. Not an easy thing to replicate even when the factories have the gen In hand.
There’s always going to be some trade off with these dials. The zzf and BP look good but for me the date window shape a large radius in the internal corners are an easy tell especially with the gen crystal.

This is exactly the reason why it’s almost impossible to say what’s accurate or not if gens look different next to each other. The rep won’t look off, easier tells next to a gen for me would be the hour marker shape and hands.

Thanks for mentioning me bro!
Words can't describe how much I love it!
ARF CASE?

Everyone discarding the ARF dial?
Think it’s nice myself
As said before all trade offs with these dials. All close enough and as the guy with the two gens said, two next to each other look different so why is op worried about his zzf
What’s the point of having the correct sunburst or deep black when the hour markers are flat and square, lume is too smooth, too white, or Patchy.
Wear what you like the most. I personally think overall the zzf has nailed that gen look about their dial. Greens nice, hour markers look correct an lume is raised and has a grain to it and seems to be the right colour

I’ve been practicing and practicing and practicing. I have two dials that I’ve been working with. A cheap Daytona dial and a 2813 redline sea dweller dial. I can take the markers off ok. I am getting to the point where I can put them back on ok but I still haven’t used a glue/epoxy and even if I get to the point where I do, I still don’t know about doing it on a hulk dial. The sunburst is just too unforgiving and the dark color shows too many imperfections.
Even for rep dials I don’t want to screw it up. I couldn’t even imagine doing it ona gen. I have no idea how @pelagatic did it with two gen Rolex dial putting gen markers on the BP dial.

Abduljay you might want to edit that post. You're not supposed to push sales, solicit sales, try to sell, or post wtb posts outside of the sales forum/subforums. I am sure you can reword that to say it a little less obviously so mods/admin don't have anything to reprimand.

Pretty sure The chroma markets between gen gmt and sub are the same, I’ve got pics but can’t upload them for some reason
