Funny, My SD43 had a minute hand also installed about 12 minutes to early w.r.t. to the hour hand. It was not big problem as I swapped the movement, but truly annoying to anybody who wants to wear happily right out of the box.

Just adding myself to the list of folks who got different QC pics from the watch they actually recieved from supermirrors. My watch has the hour hand out of sync with the minutes - its 12 minutes too fast. QC pics were spot on.

So thats another £100 to the cost of the watch to fix it. Time to use a different TD.



So annoying when they send qc pics of a different watch. I use Lucy because she got a good reputation

Received the QC photos for mine, watch has been shipped. Hopefully it doesn't have this out of sync issue.

Looks like I got the updated V2 version with the correct bezels. Can't comment on the date wheel as I'm not sure what to look for.

It's a stunning a watch - just to illustrate the fault on mine, on your wrist shot, if my minute hand was where yours is, the hour hand would be dead on 12.

Wow, that really sucks. I hope you can get that resolved!

Watch received. Truly stunning. I am 99% sure that received one is the same seen in the qc pics. I 've never seen this watch live so i was a little skeptical. Worn is very balanced. It is big and nasty but very wearable. The bezel teeth are honestly sharp but not as much my expectation. Very happy about the watch and Sead. In your opinion i can go to beach and have a shower ?

IMHO the bezel is still too pointy compare to the gen. But overall this is one fu**king nice watch. I'm buying it.

Got mine, but alas I think its too big for my wrist...will likely go to M2M so I can try out the sub. Beauty of a watch though. Well done, ARF. Well done.

Got mine today - I'm pretty certain it's a V2 with the updated bezels. I'll post up some photos later today when I get a chance.

I am still holding off. The bezel just kills it for me.
Funny how one or two minor items can keep you on the fence.
