Chazing time says that is ok

NO the GMT hand is under the hour hand on the rep
GEN STACK : Hour - GMT- Minute- Second
ZF REP: GMT- Hour- Minute - Second
Not really noticable unless you really look . However if you watch that PT video carefully you can see the GMT is at the botton of the hand stack .
thank you, after chazing time told me that it is correct i was ready to do the mistake to buy it. Maybe it must go out of the super reps that under testing
' Super Reps 'all have obvious mistakes chap if you know what to look for . It wouldn't be a mistake to buy it as the ICHS is only noticeable if you really look .
I don't know why it has sat in the ' First Class could be Super rep ' section for so long . The consensus is already it is an excellent gen like rep , but it will never be at the top of the NWBIG list because if the ICHS . It should be just moved into the ' First Class ' section. Though there aren't that many better $300 replicas out there , it's a lot of bang for buck choice plus it has a 2836 .
Yep I think any of the ZF Tudor reps are a great starter watch to get into replicas .

There have been a lot of date flip issues with these gen watches. You're better off buying the rep!
The crown tube was too long on the V1 , meaning the crown protruded too much . This was meant to be solved on the V2 with a shorter tube . Though the jury is still out ! Some V2 buyers the crown height was now correct , other V2 buyers report on their watches it is still too long .
There is a massive 100 page + thread on the watch on the forum with pics . It is full of lunatic noobs , but it seems there are still some small flaws on the watch which is stopping it getting on the NWBIG list . Nonetheless it's another very good ZF Tudor rep 99.9% of people won't notice the differences.
Just wondering if you can find a factory producing Tudor black bay which are on the NWBIG List ?
ZF ?? The watch in this discussion is rated as NWBIG first class on the list . The Red BB shield v4/v5 is NWBIG ' Super Rep' . There are a number of Tudor models on the NWBIG by ZF and XF/V6f . The latest version of the XF Pelagos listed as v4/v5 is also a super rep .
I should find the list and have a look for yourself chap .
Chocolito
Thanks for replying, I will try to find the NWBIG List. I am looking for the best rep of Tudor Black Bay Black, seems I need to look out for the V5 version.
Thanks, found it
Also I found Tudor Black Bay Red 2016 from ZF on the list, just wondered how come that Tudor Black Bay Black aren't on the list ? Same watch just with Black Bezel ?Thanks, found it
I knew that would be your next question .
The bezel colour is said to be wrong . However ALL ZF tudors are very good reps .As a new member you seem to be looking for a super rep as close to gen as possible . As ALL new members seem to be .
Chap there are no perfect reps , even watches that are on the NWBIG list have obvious flaws if you know waht to look for . The Tudor BB ZF has two noticable flaws on the dial that can be seen by sight if you have good eyes , if not a quick squint under a loop . The dial print is a little flat compared to the gen which is more 3D , and the hand stack centre pin is wrong . On the gen it is a cap , on the rep it is a hole , and that is front and centre on the watch . Then open the watch clasp, the rep has 'Geneva' the gen doesn't etc etc
My advice reread the definitions on the NWBIG list , and buy what you want . There are some amazing replica watches that are not on the list .It is amazing with the advances in CNC , 3D printing etc etc etc the Chinese are doing an amazing job of copying watches . Also 99.9% of people couldn't tell a genuine Rolex from a banana .

Once again thanks for your detailed answer
As you are saying the rep are really well made.
