Looks awesome on a red strap. I ordered the black strap one but ordered a replacement red strap. Should get it within a week. Hopefully it'll match up well.

How do you guys manage the height of the watch? Is it very noticeable? Can any of you measure it? Gen is about 13mm
It's certainly bulky but I love it still. The height I believe is 17.5 mm. Still, it looks savage on the wrist.
I wish the new version was made without the self winding. That would save a lot of room and get the thickness closer to the gen. I wouldn't mind winding the watch. It's a small detail but would have a huge impact on he thickness.
I think I'm going to sell off one of my nadal 27-02 and get one of these newer ones

Hi all, I just received the package in excellent condition this evening and I must say KVF just did it again. This RM 35-02 it's really is a stunning piece. Comparing to the RM-35-01 from the previous factory this RM-35-02 from KVF is by miles Is a way better replica in terms of the quality. The faux decorated skeleton movement are perfected, from the dimensions, small detailings, and finishing on this decorated movements are pretty much spot on for such an affordable replica . ( I know it is still faux movement no matter what
) I know the NTPT forged carbon bezel is still far away from GEN like, but I guarantee you the quality on this replica is far better than the other factory who made the "V 1 RM-35-01". I will share some more picture in other lighting conditions as soon as I get a chance. I hope this quick snap can give everybody on this forum a quick idea on how the quality of this new RM35-02 by KVF. Thanks again to Jay at ChazingTime for such a pleasurable service, easy transaction and not to forget the speedy delivery.Attachments
As promised, here's some more detailed pics of the KVF RM35-02. As you can see the decorated details on this KVF replica is superb in quality. The photo-etched faux gears really brings that genuine look IMHO ( especially if you see this stuning piece in person) As for the NTPT forged carbon bezel, I think they should be able to fix this in the near future to achieve that complex "tiger stripe" pattern. The problem is, only on how they layered the carbon sheet before they forged and shaped the bezel. How they layered and shaped the carbon sheets for the the caseback is somehow better than how they did it for the front bezel. In my personal opinion, I think the case back really has that detailed and complex "tiger stripe" partern. Giving it that GEN like looks comparing to the front bezel. I will show some pictures of the caseback on my next post, to give everybody some idea what I'm talking about. And I also think they did a good job on the AR coating. Well, overall I'm really happy with this puchased and I must say this Taiwanese Factory really delivered their replica game quality.Attachments
I don't know if anybody notice what I meant about the caseback? In my opinion the complexity of the carbon patern on the caseback is looking more GEN like comparing to the front bezel. I believe if the factory would give extra attention on this, they would be able to achieve that similar pattern for the front bezel.
I also think they did an excellent job on the new rubber strap and the new buckle, for sure it is an updated version from the last KVF product.

I was planing to get this as well, but i was holding back after saw this Red Carbon RM35-02. I contacted all Chinese TDs last week but they couldnt find this model in any factory. Love the red line on side of the case but the Carbon pattern need improvement. It would like amazing with yellow strap. What do you think gentleman ??

The Carbon looks great but the "shine" is missing it doesn't reflect the light and the movement is still quite bad quality

Thickness looks a bit better on this, and I've never seen one with a midcase in the NTPT pattern, would buy this if it could be sourced!!

How about buy the the black carbon and swap that movement into this red carbon ? It would be great...

Yes buddy, it is great if we can swap the movement on black carbon into this one, it would look better, and I will end up buying this 2 watches [emoji28] if it possible.
