Works as designed: if you press the chrono start button, the 12 subdial counts the running minutes...
You rejected this watch? Really? Rejecting for such "reasons" makes rep watches more expensive for us all... Thank you!

I assume your dealer did check that the chrono is working correctly. Take it. Be happy. Have a little faith.
Calm please! No I did t rejected this yet! I asked for more pics. Sunbdial at 12 should reset with the big hand. In the time graph pics the big one it is at 12 and the subdial is not so I asked clarification since or they stopped crono without resetting or the sunbdial do not reset correctly.
Don't blame me for asking clarifications. I always do with manners but I trusted qc pics fist time and the watch arrived with date misaligned even if qc was perfect. I asked clarification to TD and he asked me to ship back the watch to change it. So forgive me if this time I want to double check.
Could not agree more. Besides, you pay 100% of the money so you have the right to receive a 100% watch, not the slightest doubt about that.

Same here, it even does not wind properly when sitting on the winder. One of the worst built reps I ever owned.
My SWF one arrived today. Loving it so far
Great watch.
It's the same one?

Some TD's are saying it's V2 but I can't determine the maker of this one just by looking at these pictures from Angus, 60min counter on this one is fixed and fully functional.
Dial cut out is just crispy and sharp, can't say a lot about actual strength of sunburst effect.
No, it's not the same, the one on the pic is from SWF whilst your link points to a V2. The subdials of the V2 have way too bold concentric circles.
No this is my one

Great power reserve on mine too. Wore it for 4 hours and after I took it off it kept ticking away in the box for another 35 and a bit
Any issues regarding crooked numbers or misaligned DW? Actually it seems SWF does a pretty much better assembling job than ZF...
This one totally flew under my radar, I'm glad someone has presented this one as well, thanks for your efforts and comment...
Having in mind the question asked by @Variatio Delectat what do you think about the overall quality? I have the same impression, dial shield cut-out, hour markers and numerals are spot on on this one. I'm afraid I can't say more about the sunburst.
Is that confirmed rumour that this timepiece has equipped fully functional 60min counter?
