This would be great, I’ve been waiting for this! Hopefully the markers etc. will also be aligned well...

There is a video or guide That shows how to mute the rotor? What kind of oil should be used?
Thanks, I think it's useful for everyone!

+1 I agree!
Just FYI, the watchsmith damped the winding noise, oiled the rotor, the automatic lift was provided with splash lubrication. He had to swap a ratchet wheel, sometimes slipped through and made a rattling noise. Will receive the watch in the next days.

I bought the BB 58 ZF from PT but now I realize that it don’t says v2. So they sold me a V1 for the 288 USD? Not QC yet

i think I remember that Puretime did not offer them as V2, but as a revised V1, so it could be okay

you ordered from sead as well? mine was sent out on the 12th of nov, but still hasn’t arrived due to royal mail problems (they actually sent it to the wrong country..). really strange, the status hasn’t updated since arriving in the wrong country either. nevertheless sead assured it’s gonna arrive at my address ..
did that happen to anyone before?

Yeah it’s from Sead.
After the small service it runs super smooth and it is water proof.
Payed last week for a Tudor GMT.
Can not wait for it to arrive as well.
I think this feeling is absolutely normal

.Received my QC Pictures today. Watch is looking fine overall, but it has the "clasp gap issue". Can someone please tell me, if there would be problems with the closing mechanism with this kind of gap or if it is just a cosmetical issue. Thanks for your help!

Some vendors don't list it at V2, if you receive the QC you'll easily see which version it is.
Check especially on lume color and tube length. Otherwise sometimes the dial markers or pearl are not aligned / messed up.
Pulling the trigger here soon aswell
Today i received the QC, I have rejected the watch cause of the misaligned markers, 3 is the worst.
But the question is, is this the ZF v2 ? Or is just the v1? I see a protruded crown, not lume

What you guys think?

Looks like a V2 for me in regards to the lume. Crown does look a bit like v1 but might be the angle.

Can you post pics? A lot of these QC pics seem to show crooked markers, but I feel like it might be the crystal...
Crystal is slightly domed but the 3 marker above is very crooked.
I’ve hardly ever seen a ZF BB58 without misalignments... really keeps me from pulling the trigger. I wish they would improve their QC and come out with a V3 that eliminates some of the minor flaws...
