Very nice SELs but there’s still a lot that needs to be fixed, crown guards automatically give it away for me. Anyone who has owned a gen will know what I mean.

Sorry but I keep Reading such ridiculous stuff here, lol

Lol. You joined less than 2 months ago and you're doubting the TD vetting process? Love people who've got everything figured out so fast. Ever occurred to you that getting QC pics fast is actually pretty low relevance on the vetting process that you're doubting?!

Relax. Did I say doubt or "I wonder about." Didn't mean to threaten you w an observation. Many things occur to me... but thank you for your response.

zzf has good relationship with Jtime, and has a short exclusive release for them. Go ahead though, maybe you can rewrite RWI's protocol.

Nobody is doubting RWI's protocol- just fostering a sense of curiosity. I highly recommend that ethos. Ask questions... about oneself and others, and that, tempered w thoughtful action, will all but insure interpersonal and financial success.

Regarding JTime, the ZZF was only one watch. I received a BP and a Noob in under two weeks. So, I'm not sure how that works w your "ZZF relationship" theory...

“Hearing stories like this makes me wonder about RWI's TD vetting protocol.”

if that’s not doubt, I don’t know what it is. Your ethos? Nah bruh I am good, it just makes you sound like a dick.

a short exclusive release doesn’t mean jtime can’t sell other watches, just means they have early access to zzf. How do I know? Cause I asked him before.

You might be right. Regarding the word "Wonder" verb
  1. 1.
    desire or be curious to know something.
    "how many times have I written that, I wonder?"
I hope you and yours are well.

I think you are fine with what you have. They all have VERY small imperfections so you have to pick what you are happy with the most. I was in a similar situation. Very difficult decision but ended up ordering an ARF V3 Hulk. Just approved the QC pics earlier this week and it's on its way. :D

Same for me, I wanted the stability of the a2824 and the ARF bracelet and clasp.

Hi guys, I also purchased a V2s through Li, the service has been top notch. I approved the QC pics about a week ago and the watch has been shipped. I noticed that other V2s have a lower case clasp code. In the QC's the rolex crown on the rehaut was slightly off center from the 12 which I understand is shared by the other V2s pics so far. I'm sure its just the light but the clasp lettering looks like it may be capitalised and was looking for a second opinion.

Two of the same reasons why I went with the ARF. Don't get me wrong, the QC pics of the ZZF's look awesome. It's great to have a couple of great reps to chose from.

It's lower case bro. You can see light glinting off the top curved line of the r

Take a screenshot of the pic and you can zoom in closer in your screenshot.

Goddamn these things are so good. They check more boxes for me ootb than any other rep I’ve seen before.

Can’t wait for a gen v rep comparison although we already know what differences we’ll find.

if the insert really is this close to gen green, just need gen xtal and I can live with the close enough cgs, close enough rehaut, close enough bezel teeth, close enough pearl, maybe hand swap but keep capped seconds hand

Sorry just glad to see such a good rep

I'm not threatened thank you, this is not my process it's the process that the mods have put in place and improved over the years and that has proven effective to protect members from scams.

Don't play dumb, nobody is preventing you from asking questions, but saying "something makes me wonder about the process" without even trying to understand it is arrogant and know it all.

Your subsequent message where you're lecturing other members on the benefits of self questioning says the same thing about your behaviour.

In essence, when you join a new group that you don't even understand, the right thing to do is to be humble, not to look down at others and play smart.
