Got mine today , feel like they are a bit overhyped. Im loving what ARF are doing but i wouldn't say super rep.
Bezel movement feels cheap
Date wheel has misprint/dirt on a couple dates
Mag cyclops appears magnification improved over earlier models but position is too high on the xtal so cuts off the bottom of the date at normal vieweing.
Bracelet screws where a right bastard same as on my ARF Daytona , threaded, stiff and jammed had to be plyered out. Screw slots fit my gen screwdriver on some and too small on others.

Sorry for your so/so experience for your ARF watch mate. Are you sure it’s SD43V2 ?
I ask because I’ve received mine a couple of days ago and don’t get any of the flaws you did mention. For sure I would have been quite worried about that.

JDM180 should have sen this at qc, no?
Or did u get a different watch?

Last time I mentioned rejecting QC on here I was lynched so lowered my expectations. Besides would have not spotted any of this apart from the date but the angle of the qc mag looked ok and didn't get a pic on the mucky date

thanks mates

Ill see what more responses I get over the next week or so and see what I can do


I am super intereasted in a Prof Crystal with no cyclops! Vac actually tried to take mine off with no success, so I think he actually contacted you!

The sooner the better as I want one of your crystals without the cyclops!!

So its the fault of other members who gave you a hard time about rejecting QCs that caused you to lower your expectations and receive a shitty watch? Come on. Maybe we should have finished that lynching and put you out of your misery.
