Damn you guys hogging all the blues 😭

It seems that pure time and the one watches are holding most of the stock.
@puretime has given me a two-week wait time for my Blue dial. However, in fairness, they are replacing my Ceramic watch with the Blue one (which I had requested). Therefore, I believe they are receiving the Blue dial directly from the factory rather than from their stock.

Is it me or almost all have misaligned chrono hand (not centered)
I'm a bit hoping it's the angle of the dangle, er picture,... but we'll see. Not too hard a fix, if the large chrono hand is misaligned, but annoying. I'm more annoyed at the bezel screw slots and the more common misaligned hour markers at 3, 6, 9.

Haha! Please message me if you end up selling one later on.

I asked about the 26331 and the wait time is even worse for that 😂

Since when did TD become AD 😭

Still hand made :) haha

Surely, bud. But I normally buy 2 of my keepers, one to sit in a box, all alone in the dark, until the time arises when it must become an organ donor of some kind.

JUST ARRIIVVEEDDDDDDDDDD.. Will try to take better pictures later but wanted to share. This watch is incredible and the purple really pops. Its so tough to get a good pic of it but the way it reflects the light and changes to different shades of purple... 🤌 🤌 🤌
Loving it!

Also threw it on the scale. Gen is white gold so obviously weight is off but still pretty hefty coming in at 167 grams!

Just be patient.

When APSF releases the new batch with nicely aligned markers and better rotor, the M2M will be flooded with blues....
Markers can get fixed by new batch? Thought theyre just qc flaws which cant get fixed with new batches or versions

Really looking forward to seeing mine (a blue 26240 on order from TWM that is having a little bit of work done before it comes to me).

The theory is that APSF rushed the production to deliver as many watches as possible before CNY.

There's expectation that the new batch will have better QC.

However, one should know that it's just theories and expectations as nothing is sure in the rep game.

Someone in this thread said that his TD told him to wait a little longer for the new batch since they are fixing the flaws like the black ceramic breaking and other small stuff.

Since apsf and thb are the same factory hopefully they'll also fix the DOUUBLE misspelling on the openwork as well. We'll see.

So I think your theory is more right
