I paid for one already ..... yup probably will arrive in 2015 .... no worries .... my money paid will have inflation factored in so I need not top up any extra money. For now .. will wait for ppl selling off their ZFs

He states
"watch completely ready excluding bezel's pearl, pearl's ring lume and movement holder will change so please don't care that problems also we will update pictures with Gen. pam382 before shipping date."


What does this supposed to mean ? Bezel pearl, pearl ring, and movement holder would be changed from ehat is already in the picture posted?

It does look closer to gen than zf but with a few small mods the zf wil look just as good imo.
It all comes down to the case and how it ages.

another question is if KW will use the very same movement like ZF and I am not talking about decoration plates but the design flaw making auto winding not efficient. My ZF 382 doesn't auto wind enough to keep the watch going despite the movement was serviced.

I'm going to wait till I get back from Vacation in July and then see what all comes of this. I cant wait till they start arriving in peoples hands and I hope a ZF owner will buy a KW and do a comparison. Cant wait for the patina pictures either, These threads are almost more interesting then the watch itself. I will have one its just a matter of when>.

Ordered one this morning from Amanda at KW, and she has confirmed my WU payment.
Also waiting for a Bronzo strap and Bronze buckle from Rolko, and a black Croc Hornback strap with bronze stitchings from Jeremy at Primestraps.
Let the waiting game begin! :)

Paid and confirmed with Amanda too! Guessing QC pics will probably take a month... But I can wait.

Maybe it's luck but mine is the complete opposite. The movement has been accurate and has not stopped running since it turned up. In fact, rather unusually, this is one of the few times I have actually been impressed with the performance of a rep movement!

Guys, based on the pictures from zf and kw we can see... Is it safe to say the whole watch from kw looks like better than zf's ? Or is it only the photography techniques that are better? :D
