I received Blancpain FF ZF

[maximfrei]

Hiiiiiiiii, today I got it! :drinks_cheers:

Very very happy!!! unk:

This is my 2nd rep (the 1st one was Noob V7, but I sold it after 2 weeks to buy Blancpain).

It is so sweet!!! And the rubber strap is not that bad! They fixed the mistake "fiftG" and now it is 100% correct "fiftY"

The finishing is superb!!! Wish just to center the date a bit and get rid off the small dust on the datewheel, should I ever open the caseback or just enjoy it?

:w00t:

nice ! enjoy it
it's one of my favorites in my collection and sure gets some wrist time

 

[johnlogan]

Just enjoy it!! Looks great.

Guys, I see the tail of the next date. Can I do something to center the date? What should I do: rotate a bit the dial or the date wheel?

Gen has this as well, dont be too picky

 

[maximfrei]

I see it quite clear

 

[maximfrei]

Guys help me out

You are dealing fake watches, dont expect perfection
The ZF is a super rep, you arent going to find a perfect rep for this price and a quick research on the internet shows that the gen got this 'problem you mentioned' as well.

Guys and Lol am I the only one who has STEEL printed on the caseback like STEEl?

 

[Matty369]

Dude, I barely see "STEEL" with my bare eyes on my FF, let alone how it's written ! :hypno:

 

[Rx4Time]

Umm, I can barely see that on the inside lug of my piece? Let's set our expectations accordingly.

[maximfrei]

Lol... got it with STEEl

 

[freediver]

Go and engrave an L
Forget about it noone will see it there

Mine says STEEL, but If it said STEEI, it wouldn't bother me 1 bit. Seriously, no one is ever going to see it the and I wouldn't either unless I was inspecting the back of the watch

 

[mimicry]

This is considered a super rep
Is it worth doing any mods , like luming hands and dial
and of course waterproofing?

 

[freediver]

lume is it's best part, needs nothing
about the rest you can read what i did on my dial and bezel click if u look

 

[maximfrei]

Guys, do you start to see at approximately 23:30 the tail of the next date or does your date changes exactly in one moment at 23:55? Think that something is with my movement cause the date doesn't move to the next one when approaching 00:00

 

[maximfrei]

Beware lol, now ZF makes them with a small mistake in STEEL (letter L is smaller). Puretime confirmed.
What a small pity, hope in the new batches it will be correct
