I don't disagree with you but I think it just comes down to how anal you want to be.

In my humble view it's freaking awesome...

JF has produced some quality super reps. An

Yes it's a great rep but just not a super rep. NWBIG for sure. They did a fantastic job for a V1 and I can't wait to see their upcoming rep releases.

Still isn't deserving of super rep status though is it? It most certainly is NOT a super rep although it is a fantastic rep as I previously said. Also ARF being owned by JF doesn't mean that much since it is said to be a different department.
I am curious what are the flaws you are observing that do not qualify this as a super rep? I am not sure it is at the NWBIG status but depending on the criteria you are using it should be, or very close to, a super rep.

I have seen a few folks stating this is definitively not a super rep so I am curious what you are basing these statements off of here - specifically the ARF. I am not trusting non-TD QC shots either because I have no way of confirming that they are actually getting an ARF version - especially when QC are coming within days of their initial order.

Nope that's definately a Fat hand
I've been comparing mine with a load of other QC pics and do you know what, my minute hand does look fatter, but I think it's actually the case that rather than being fatter, the lume on it is thinner and even tapers in at the end a bit. Either way, I agree that it definitely looks different to most other pics, yet the watch does look ARF like in other respects. TB says it's an ARF too. It's interesting that another member gave you a 'X' 'disagree' rating. I wonder why.

Do you think it looks like the ARF in spite of the hand thing?

Could be, but check against gen pics also

Yeah I noticed quite a lot of people calling this a super rep. Excuse me but the super rep status is reserved for actual super reps. This may be an excellent rep, expecially for a first version and from such a new top level factory but it is definitely not a super rep...

To each their own my friend. That’s the beauty of a forum. Did you receive this watch already? And what do you consider a super rep?

Nope. Bezel teeth the same as before. Rotor update is a waste of time - looks nothing like a 3235.
