Yep, messaged my TD yesterday and waiting on new stock again. I placed my order 3rd December. Will be a long wait I think.

I see what you mean now with all of those pictures next to each other.

Not as bad as the QC i received and denied

But looking at other members’ photos I know there are better versions out there, for instance these below.

What's with the different magnifications? Almost like it's from another maker.

thought the same @SuprKamiGuru
It doesn‘t look like ARF. The magn. looks weired

Yeah thats the same I thought and multiple other people I asked. A few people said that it might be VRF, but I’m not good enough at distinquishing between pictures. The watch is already denied but can post other QC pictures if people would like.

Just make sure if you pay for ARF you receive ARF. Don't let them try and send you a VRF or BP. They are both much lower in quality and accuracy and not 904L steel. Plus you want to get to what you paid for.

I know the movement inside is an a2824. But does anyone know if it's a 2824 or an a2824-2?

Agreed...ARF has the weird looking DW no. 28..Just what we see on Puretime/Intime website.

Even a triangle does look strange on your QC images..
