My second QC pic. Which I have g/l
what are your thoughts ?

The sels look rather flushed with the lugs though..

That's the problem with ZZF sels lately from all the QC photos I've seen. Either super tight but bad recession, or good recession but sel gaps.

I also received QC pics with SEL a bit flush and DW seems off to the left (maybe it's just photo's prospective), but other things seems well done and aligned

I said it was cf lol its obvious look at the flaw.anyhoo the new dial is out and available now

Which new dial is out now [mention]smoke [/mention]? I just hope zzf are reading your comments and build a super rep of the LV in the next few months. They can call it ZZF V2s.12356 for all We care. Just want it to be 98+% perfect without these few issues like you and other members have mentioned. Also if they can use the arf clasp on the bracelet that would be great. Hope you are reading this ZZF LOL

This is so confusing about the dial, insert +++
anyway my friend ordered last week and they called it ZZF V3 now
And the insert and dial looking pretty insane imo! The first pictures in this thread of QC's must have been oldstock or just "tryouts" to get it the best when fully released.

put it this way the dial and insert are looking amazing in some of these pics the font and layout is 100 percent correct the markers are looking tottally gen even though they are not white gold,and the dial is displaying black and green simultaneously looking really gen.the old dials could not do that as far as I can remember so for me this is looking to be the best hulk dial I've ever seen if we can belive the pics posted.ive not received my watch yet so I cant say too much.but they need to fix the pearl colour yesterday though.then get the case correct and sel then we will have a perfect rep otb .but will it happen probbly not but its nice to dream lol.

smoke New QC just arrived. C4R clasp code. Admittedly I'm still a bit befuddled by the font and insert evolutions, can the keener eyes kindly weigh in on the 'X' factor here?

ZZF v2s & ARF v2

Received the ZZF the lettering on dial is very thin compared to gen and even the arf, did you guys notice that too. Besides all the obviously flaws.

Almost like gen and arf are bold compared to zzf

Thanks for the photos. As good as the ARF insert was before ZZF V2S came along, and as much as some will say there's no difference between ZZF V2S and ARF, it's obvious that the ZZF V2S insert is much better.

Yesterday finally received the ZZF V2 after 1,5 month due to Covid19, the watch was shipped on April 13th.

I agree on most comments and in comparison with my ARF V2 2836 these are the most obvious differences:

Positif
The dial is much much nicer, color + reflection..ARF looks more plastic and cheaper.
The date fond, ARF looks just fat in comparison.
The round-off markers 3,6 and 9..the edges on the ARF are sharp and square.
The lugs are more elegant, ARF more boxy.
Color and finish of the bezel are just a little better and sharper.

Negative
Reflection of the date window is more noticebable with the ZZF and for me the biggest flaw.
The bracelet is ok but needs some attention, I cleaner it and waxed it. With a Dremel I took off all the sharp edges and now it feels like ARF.
The function of the clasp is not so good, not smooth at all, greasing didn't help.
Winding is a little rough and releasing the stem is also not the smoothest.

Overall I'm very happy with the watch, I couldn't live anymore with the ARF because of the glossy dial, square markers and fat date fond..these things combined became to much for me :D
