Trevor has told me that they have now fixed the crooked logo issue. He will be sending me QC pics soon. We'll see. I'll post here when they arrive.

Such a shame - crappy dial QC issues have killed what would've otherwise been a cracking rep release. It wouldn't be so bad if it was fixable, but glossy black dials and shiny white dial markers do not make for a simple mod!

Here's the QC pic I just got. That logo looks about as good as I've seen, although its still a hair off. Also, it seems like the spacing on "Seamaster" is better than many.

Thoughts?

12 is obviously off. But overall still better than earlier batch.

Markers at 6 & 12 also are on an angle, but the logo does look better

Factory should just send out the separate parts, I could put the watch together better than all these QC shots! lol

Considering I really like this watch and seeing these failures on the dial makes me want to just go ahead and get the gen instead. :headdesk: This is so frustrating.

But of course, I ain't got no budget for that... :whistle:

Perhaps I'm just a philistine...Seems like we're splitting hairs here. Looks pretty good IMO.

Yea, I'll def buy one once the dial issue is fixed.

Real question is what to get in the meantime?

I see puretime is showing an option as having an eta movement on the lmpo. What are the chances it is just an Asian movmt and not eta? Any other dealers offering eta movement?

Got info from a TD, which say that there are more problems other than dial issue. Could someone with inside info, speak out please
