I was interested in exactly this Toro version a few weeks ago. The QC pics showed terrible flaws, e.g. the screws. It turned out there exists only that very last example on my QC pics (which maybe has already been rejected many times). It is not produced any more. I declined.
Toro was very generous: I was able to switch to a Ballon bleu.

Excellent choice. I had not seen the Intime version with Seiko movement before. I had only seen the ultimate 33mm version with a so-called "Swiss" movement for around 500 USD from several other dealers, which for me seems too much. Hence, I think I will buy the Intime version, too. A 100% original Japanese movement is probably more reliable than a "Swiss" movement of dubious origin and composition.

I had ordered the V6F 33mm Santos 100 with Seiko movement from Toro Bravo. It arrived yesterday. 2 hours after delivery the watch was again in the mail and back on its way to China for repair on guarantee: When I pulled out the crown for setting the time, the crown came out together with the whole stem...
So much for quality control!

I got the watch back. It is just perfect. Surprisingly even the strap is excellent!
