Definetely not, too many flaws for me on the ZF, such as colours on marker that should be rose gold, screws on bracelet, tube length, random misaligned markers and pale black colour... I hope a V3 is coming soon. It's been a long time since I wanted to get a 58 ????

Hi guys, I pulled the trigger on the BB58 from Lin at Jtime. I just got QC photos and I must say it looks like one of the better examples regarding the QC I have seen. I checked many GEN photos and other QC photos and made comparisons and even drew some lines to double check alignment.

I would really appreciate your feedback on this QC. Especially the alignment of the shield. It does not seem aligned that well. What do you think about it?

Guys. A hint how I can open up the case back? Unfortunately the watch stopped working. I tried to wind it but it does not tick anymore so i would like to open it up and have a brief look. However i will send it to a watchsmith.

I think you need a special tool for that, but I could imagine that the experienced users here know a better solution

Any fix for the clasp getting loose and wobbly? It seems to get worse and worse..

Hi All,

I received my QC pics today (after a long day) but am disappointed with what looks to be some issues with the alignment of some of the markers (notably the 12).

What are all of your thoughts? Is it just angle of the photo.



Thanks!

hm I wouldn't be so sure. I would ask for a picture of the watch straight on and with the bezel aligned.

I bought this ball on amazon. Still not able to open it.
any hints on what could have happened? I mean i do not know if it makes sense to send it to the watchsmith or not. It is a bit frustreting.
