Looks very good. Still waiting for my qc from Li.

How long have you been waiting? This was the third watch that I was sent in less than a week.

Bro this is beautiful. Engravings are not to deep. Maybe is the new stock ;-)

Thanks. I'm not sure if it's new stock. It looks very similar to some of the QC photos that I saw earlier in this thread. I'm glad that I was picky and waited to get one like this. It's one of the better ones that I've seen so far. Only down side is that it's +9spd. Ideally I wanted one that less than 5.

Really looks awesome!! I must always remember myself: 99,99% of the people wont see any flaws etc. Even with reps much worse. This is really good!!

I’ve been waiting 10 days for qc which is longer than normal fo Li but I did add a part midway though so that may have slowed the process.

Can someone recommend a good US based moder/service person for this? I’m looking for someone to take the Arf gmt, swap in a vr3185 movement and a gen roulette datewheel. I don’t have the movement currently, would need to acquire or have the modder acquire and install.

long shot but TDS like jtime don’t do these services do they? Obviously not the gen datewheel


thanks

Hey gang. A 5 month update on mine. Movement so far working beautifully. No service. No mods.

Thanks for the sitrep. Awesome piece you have there.

May I ask if you have used the jumping hour hand during the 5 months?

Yeah I ordered mine from Li, as well as a Yachtmaster. Process was rather slow. It appears he is getting busier and busier! (Not a bad thing). And I'm wondering if the ZZF v2s sub orders are taking precedent right now.

Nevertheless, still got good service and my watches are on the way

Roulette? Like the black and red? Might look a little off with the green that's present on the dial and gmt hand... but if christmas is your thing, then go for it!

Almost certainly no TD will do that for you. misiekped here on the forum can do the work for you. Look him up under Watch Services NY under Trusted Vendors.

If you go to the sales section, you can find a green datewheel for sale by interaktiv. I got one for mine

Thanks. Yes I use the jumping hour function every time I set the time and date.

Sounds like it's a reliable movement as compared to previous GMT CHS.

Thanks for the info!

Hey guys, anybody know if the Sub-C’s caseback will fit the ARF midcase? I’m curious because I have a spare sapphire case back for a sub and I’d like to see if it works but I haven’t received the ARF GMT yet

Hey chaps,

I've recently contracted a condition in my eyes (bacterial conjunctivitis) and it has really compromised my eyesight, and my doctor says it should continue to affect my eyesight for around a week more. I'm expecting my QC images for this watch to arrive right away (next few days, hopefully), and I will need some help verifying them. Is anyone willing to help me out over PM?

Note: for anyone wondering why I can make this post but I can't see. First, I have my younger sister typing for me. Second, even as my eyesight improves over the next days, it will still be extremely difficult to see fine details.

Thanks to anyone willing to help! My sister, while able to type this out for me, would not be a great QC'er, so any help would be very appreciated.

Lmao man this would be awesome if you were new and this was your first post. That being said you've been here long enough that I believe ya. I still think it might be against the rules to post it publicly, but you're more than welcome to PM me and I'll do it for ya. You can let me know what things you're looking out for in particular if you'd like.

Ps, hope you're eyes get better. I had some eye problems not too long ago and it sucks.

Thank you! Lol, yeah it’d be pretty funny if a first-time poster did this. But no, I’ve been here for a while!

Is this the good tits, like The Tits and, um... Tits McGee, or bad tits like Tits Up and A Right Tit?

That's what I guessed. Because those SELs are indeed tighter than a set of 38DDs in a 32A cup.
