Ordered from Lucy this week and just got the QC through. Looks good to me although I've queried what appeared to be cotton thread/fluff on the top inner dial (want to make sure it's not inside the case) and what appears to be mis-aligned lettering on the 'A' and 'C' of 'TACHYMETRE'.. although I might be being a bit picky:

*removed*

Would be happy to hear your thoughts!

I have the gray version. You can't see minor flaws without magnifying glasses. Your QC's look good. FYI it was difficult to size this bracelet. It's the first time I took a rep to a jeweler

It's from Lucy, (truetime168.com) - although she sourced it for me, I don't think it's on the website. Always worth asking her to look, she's very helpful.

Is there really a black dial one? Or is it the Brown Dial? I deal with one of the TD's on here that doesnt believe theres a Black Dial edition, they say its the brown one. mind posting a pic when you receive it?

Pretty sure the is no black version of the rep. Pure-time usually sees these first(where I got mine). Because the gen exists in black it would be no surprise if we see it. PM Angus, Toro or one of those guys. They always get the info 1st
