Im looking for a blue dial. Placed an order with a TD but all the watches he has showed me have major flaws. Has anyone else noticed this?

Try the white or the black dial if You´re referring to the Myota with 3 center-screws on the rotor, 10,5mm thickness and engravings on the rotor and movement itself which still is the best. Typical are misplaced markers at 12 or elsewhere, You might try 5 times if You and the TD are patient.

Yup I went thru a similar situation - it's either a crooked ap logo, marker at 12 or 3 as day watch as mentioned. If you wait for the new batch coming end of this year or around the 20th, there's a higher chance the fresh batch may have some better pieces :)

All the good TF 15400s from last batch are gone. Now all that is left are rejects.

I placed an order for a TF Miyota Best Engraved Movement Silver Dial on Stainless Bracelet with a TD on May 26th.
I was told after I made payment that the Factory is out of Stainless Bracelets but I can get the watch on a leather strap. I asked when the Bracelet version would be available and I was told June 10th. I only want the bracelet version so I have been waiting.
I just heard from my TD that Factory now says there is another delay, and they "hope" to have product by end of this month.
My TD said he has doubts that TF Factory will have product ready at end of the month.
I am hoping that the new upcoming batch will not have the QC issues of the previous batch with the crooked AP Logo and lume markers.
Has anyone else spoken to their TD recently about when they expect new batch with the bracelets?

I heard TF will have a new batch on 15 June with possible delays. Looks like there are definitely going to be delays.

I have not gotten QCs. Hope this is not a summertime slowdown "bait and switch."

Thanks for the update slaughter, I was told the 15th as well. Another 5 days isn't much of a big deal.

Is the price of the new tf batches still the reduced priced of around 320 us or have they hiked the prices back up nearer to its original price ? Cheers pb
