I've lost track... have we seen pics of ZF's creation yet? Do they improve upon the appearance and shape of the numerals? The way they look on the YL screams "phony watch". To me, they look nothing like the genuine article and it's a humongous tell.

Working PR? Great! Correct sub-dial spacing? Super! But I'm not going to shell out cash for this until they put numerals on it that look convincing. For a queue, they can look to the JJF version of the 3714 Portugieser Chrono. Judging from the photos I've seen, JJF nailed the numerals in my opinion.

Look at intime for images of the ZF and make your own mind up

is it the lighting or is the gold of numerals and hands still off? I watched a youtube video of a gen and depending on the light the gold was close to the pictures above or completely different

Countdown is on! Really can't wait for QC to come through... I'm to the point of checking my phone for email every few minutes. I try my best to be patient, but when it's down to the wire I get a little giddy. Hope the ZF is all they've cracked it up to be. Next up is 3878 I guess, but I'll wait on user reviews of that one first.

Date color obvious flaw in grey dial version same as colors of number on the dial... Print of the IWC Shaffhaussen and Automatic also different I think.

the rotor also says "tribeca film festival" on the medallion instead of probus scafusia, but i'd rather they deal with the issues on the dial side first

Ylf with blue hands looks nice and case looks way better now. This has blue tint ar in video so I assume all do.
Crown is too squared off on ylf though. Zf is better on this.
