Mine came in about 2 days ago... I don't know if I have a defective model or not, but the power reserve never drops below the 7. It's been 2 days already so there must be something wrong with mine :/.
Have you been wearing it constantly? ;-D

Hahaha, I was for the first few hours but then I went to bed, woke up and was intrigued that it had stopped at 7 for some reason. So from then on I haven't touched it and it doesn't move beyond that point.

Can anyone who has theirs as well confirm that it should move below the 7?.

When mine came it was on zero and I wound it up to 7, I didn't wear it yesterday and it dropped to the lower 7 marker, wound it about mid point on the seven and this morning it is just below the 7.

Guess I was just unlucky then!, thanks for the information mate.

My co-worker has the gen black dial and I have ordered the ZF, once it comes in I will shoot a comparison shot(s). I approved my QC photos over a week ago....damn Chinese Holidays!

The strap with correct lengths is not here yet, but I borrowed the strap from my FA Jones so I could wear my new 5007 tonight. Beautiful watch, in love already. Just need my proper strap and I'm happy [emoji41]

The package wasn't maked as 'IWC 5007' was it? Seems a bit risky stating that by the sender to attract attention?
Still you got it and that's all that matters, looks very nice!

No I use a tracking app for all parcels and it's the name I gave it for the tracking number. It's not seen by the parcel handlers, only me [emoji41]
