My first impression was that, although the case is larger, it is certainly nowhere near the jump that the submariners went through, making it a larger and slightly heavier wear. Anyone who enjoys a Daytona size watch will still love this watch and its proportions. Highly recommended.
Well said. I never took to the 11 ceramic Sub Maxi, boxy case. The 12 Sub is a more fluid evolution of the 5 digit Sub with flowing lugs; IMO what the 11 Ceramic Sub should have been.

I got mine in today. I have to say the build feel on these is much better than the initial release of the 11 series. The feel of the CF 126500 reminds of the BTF daytonas. I can say, I much prefer the wrist presence of the 12 over the 11 as well. I'll post pictures soon.

Mine arrived and what is the most puzzling is just how solid and tangible and hefty the bracelet and case is, I've handled hundreds of gens and this is easily the same quality without exaggeration. First purchase from Ctime and I might have found my favorite TD. Also for those who wonder, my rotor is very quiet.

CTime is awesome! Super fast shipping, good communication, answers very fast on email and WhatsApp. My new favourite TD.

Do you see some flaws inreal life?
It looks completelly perfect, I dont see a single flaw
Only flaw mine has is there's is a slight rotor noise if moved too quickly. On the wrist it's silent though.
Visually zero flaws

I have a black one on order now :D cant wait. I also had ordered a clean 11 daytona fee month ago that had a faulty/sloppy rotor bearing. So i returned that one. Hope this one is better!

I dream of a Lemans but given the rarity it will be complicated to wear on the wrist 😄
