Any other noticeable flaws besides the fat datewheel?

Sel fit is crap too. This falls well short of ARF’s usual detailing. A shame they have messed it up.

I've just pulled the trigger on this version - will post pics etc. when I get my hands on it.

I'm planning to drop in a VR3135 (hence my question about where best to source that movement a few posts back....!)

Just had an email from Puretime saying that the watch is now on back order and I will have to wait another 10 days before QC pics. (So - they release a "new watch" , confirm availability when I ask them and then, after waiting patiently for QC pics, suddenly it's on back order. Wonderful....).

Puretime have spun you a tail as it was never available in the first place! It’s not been actually released yet according to my contacts and probably will be mid August. Hope you get it sooner but I doubt it.

Well, at least one hit the sales section ( a first batch with wrong clasp engraving)

Really let down by this, why mess up something great the JF16610 was amazing... Should have never parted with mine :(

Case shape has definitely been revised.
Lugs are a lot more slender than the old JF.
That aspect is definitely better on first glance.
SEL shape and fitment is also a step forward.

It seems like the watch is in pre order and they might have it in stock i 2 weeks for Puretime, but it looks like its still in the air. What ive got from them is that they have "many orders" and they might not have enough pices for sale when they get them. I will write in 2 weeks and see if they got any. To mee it seems like is going to be a longer wait. Hopefully im wrong

Good morning. Decided to write last night to people of puretime and told me that the first batch is sold out. No stock left. Does anyone has any QCs, or anything to see if its worth it or not? Cheers
