I quite honestly don't understand why the Chinese government gives a shit if people are making reps. If anything it helps the economy.

Lol what td is this? They just brightened or overexposed the second set of pics to make the lume colors washed out. This is shady af.
I’m pretty confident that a watch I received in the past was not the watch that I QC’d,, shan’t name names tho. Any way just purchased a BB58 from another member here, it’s a V1 and the lume may be off slightly but don’t want to risk buying Chinese at the moment, and besides the main reason I bought it is to see if this may be the gen for me?. I have been aching for a Gen Sub for a long time now but the BB is really calling me and it’s so much better value I think.
So Puretime is stating that it’s the latest version and not willing for me to reject it. What should I do?

Send them comparative shot. There are plenty of Puretime QC shots in this thread.
That's a bummer. Maybe puretime is affected by the recent raids and they're trying to push old stock red-lights. I'd use some of the pics from this thread or reference intime v2 vs v1 listings with the lume and tube differences. Perhaps make it clear you're willing to wait a reasonable amount of time for them to source a v2 if stock is currently low.
How many times can you red light QC photos? I'd really like the BB58 but only willing to buy the V2
Once is no problem, twice should be rare (especially if you highlighted what was wrong initially)... three is becoming unreasonable on either your side or td side, and past that just ask for a refund.

Most TDs state in the title and description of the products what version of the product they are selling, for example intime states v2 in the title of this watch and in the description of it states what corrections have been made in that version. So then its already clear you are purchasing V2.
Doesn't hurt to communicate what you're looking for and that you know v2 exists, along with what v2 represents (hand lume more white, shorter crown tube). I err on more communication than less if you're worried about being disappointed.
For sure. I just remember how long it takes to get QC photos, so don't want to double/triple up the time red lighting everything

My point was that if you choose a td wich clearly states they are selling a v2 and what that represents, there is no option for discussion there. But for example, im looking at puretimes site right now, and on this watch they are not stating if its v1 or v2 what they sell, although weve seen puretime shipping v2 already, but if they sent qc of a v1 there could be a little room for discussion there..
Anyway i totally agree with Rolorin here too.

What td’s do you recommend now due to intime and chazing problems and raids?

I just ordered through Puretime and got my QC pics today. I’m not sure if they’re trying to burn through old stock or if I just got unlucky but mine has the issues from before the latest update (mismatched lume, tube length). Someone else experienced the same a couple of pages back.

Could be. I rejected the first 2 watches offered by PureTime. Then sent them a shot of one of their own QC shots of a watch I would accept. The 3rd watch I accepted.
