Just received QC pics for a black GMF Explorer II. As with some other photos shared here, the orange in "EXPLORER II" is really faint - nothing like the bold Gen color or even other GMF Explorer II's shown here recently. Is this sample error or is there a serious problem with the dial of GMF's newest version of the Explorer II?

The gen is not super bright in person. Its tiny and does look different to the hands. This is nothing to worry about on the rep

Got a black GMF on order. Very excited about this one! Things are delayed with the raids so I'm awaiting qc pics. Got my fingers crossed!

What raids sir? Is this causing the delays? Im so annoyed, I ordered the black dial over 6 weeks ago, they send only polars to my guy. Now he says there is some issues in China that will cause further delays, but he couldnt be more specific... Should I forget about the black dial and take the polar while is ready and available to me? Any ideas what this raids are about?

See reports on the forums. Raids on the factories.

No point in getting annoyed - these things are well beyond your/our control!

Looks good. I've ordered black dial so will post up when I have it. On my qc and on your photos the orange Explorer II looks more orange and visible than some were saying. This is encouraging.

It's always best to see it in person. Photos can be misleading (in either ways).

Looking forward to your black dial.

gentlemen (and ladies?), following this interesting conversation I'm struggling with the different models offered;
could you help me understand the difference between Trusty Times' ROLEXP2049A and ROLEXP2050A. The only difference I can see is movement "VR3285" vs "Asia Clone 3285" but am not sure what this means.
