For those that have had them a couple months now, how’s everything holding up? Any complaints? Any weight imbalance get annoying?

Great, no & no !

What are generally the biggest weaknesses of the GMF compared to gen?
For my amateur eyes, it looks really great

They're generally great IMO. To my eyes, the only real thing I notice isn't significant on the wrist, which is that the teeth on the fluted bezel is slightly different (the top angle is more acute on the reps). Again, though, I don't feel this matters much at all on the wrist.

Good to know, I’m probably going to wait a couple months for the supply issues to hopefully settle out and pull the trigger on one!

Do you guys have any fading of the gold plating yet? What is normally the expected time until fading starts if you wear the watch daily but carefully ?

I love the gift in yellow gold but I am still a bit sceptical

There's a plethora of information that has been disseminated on this forum about what to expect from the plating. I'm surprised that you'd ask this.

Hello guys

Really love this DD and have already put down my order for YG with black textured dial, just received my QC pictures and wanted to ask you more experienced members about an issue with the misaligned day and date wheel, the day is to far to the right and the 1 date is sitting low.

Also the weight is 144g, I thought the tungsten version should be closer to 160g

Now my question is: would you RL because of this?

Thank you in advance

 

[Man_pete]

Or would you accept and have watchsmith align the wheels?
Now I’m assuming that’s an easy fix? Which I’m not sure it is?

Any help would be appreciated

It was supposed to be the tungsten version, it’s TD PT.

Tungsten is as you say 160g ++ your QCs are the regular version! Decline.

What movement did you get? This could count for the difference in weight.

is it my eyes or has the plating already come off on the bezel?

I think that's air bubbles between the sticker and the bezel itself
