IWC 3878 Spitfire From ZF factory

[coolguy5]

Im sold! I guess now the debate is V6F or ZF?

 

[pretender]

had my ZF for about 6 months and so far so good - i think both will be fine, V6F has the 60min counter where ZF is 30min

Nice combo mate!

Pulled the trigger on the V6F. Will updated with QC pics.

Which TD did you choose? I am also interested to purchase one the upcoming days.

Does anyone have an opinion on which version between V6 and ZF has better sunburst effect on the dial?

 

[coolguy5]

I went with Sead (Supermirrors), he always seems to have the best pricing and QC. I did contact purtime about the V6F and they told me that it uses the "updated movement".

No significant difference.

 

[Stepan83]

Thanx Varatio. What about comparing to the gen?

[Variatio Delectat]

As I do not own a gen, I'm sorry for not being able to make a comparison. But apparently there's no noticeable difference either.

does anyone have the CF3 edition? 3878 - 08?
I'm really interested in how it looks in reality, whether there are some obvious flaws etc.

Does nobody have this watch? I dont find any info regarding the CF3 edition on this forum

So now everyone has had a good 6 months extra running their ZF and V6F watches, has there been any more consensus on which is best?

If they're mostly the same in construction, but the ZF QC is terrible and only has a 30min counter on the 6 sub dial, surely the V6F comes out on top overall with a commendable effort to ZF?

Are the lumes on the 3878 superluminova (swiss grade) ?

Does the ZF and the V6 version of the 3878 spitfire have both the upgraded movement with reliable seconds at 6?

Its been reliable for a long time now. Still using a 7750 based movement but they added jewels to transfer the seconds to the 6 position.

I am interested in this model:

https://puretime.io/pilot-chrono-ss...est-edition-on-black-leather-strap-a7750.html

1. Is the movement also reliable on this watch?
2. Since the watch is made by v6 factory, I assume that the minute counter is working correctly as in gen and not in 2 Minute steps like on the ZF model.

Thanks for your help
