Looks sick! I'm constantly being told there's a delay and it's now been over a month now since I paid. Where did you order from? I ordered from PureTime.

But your tattoo maybe inked to deep? That one line looks bubbling up😂
Bubble/not even plating means one of thousand false techniques, like wrong voltage, not complete cleaning before plating, not even degreasing and so on.

I ordered from Ryan at intime 2-3 weeks ago and was told last week it would be another month before he receives the watch from factory

A lot of people have been ordering these and there’s a massive backlog on the YG models. Also depends on who you ordered with, i got one in 2 weeks after ordering.

If you ordered the RG models then there’s an even longer wait because those aren’t finished being produced yet

Ah I see guess that explains it then. Ordered the RG Olive over a month ago. Didnt realize there are so many crazy ass people paying almost 1k for that thing like me xD

I paid 535 euros for mine, i have my own suppiler 🙌
I believe the puretime one gets sent off to be gold plated, the base cost of these are around $600 usd from most dealers. I also sent mine off for gold plating because stock gold tone is off

I've heard the clasp feels super cheap and crappy on there ARF, is this correct? Compared with GMF it apparently is night/day difference.
