I think I can clearly see it on the first pic....

but again , the photo skills of the photographer were poor I guess...

Let's wait and see how it looks on the hand...

Please don't judge those things by qc pics that are done under artificial light.

This video shows the sunburst and being that it's most likely the exact material they use on the LPP That most people are very happy with I don't think your comment is valid.

The youtube video really did a good job at capturing the beauty and quality of this piece. Now I really need one of these eventhough my wrist is sub 7".

Hey bro, check the WUW review of this exact watch, you may feel better. Tim's wrist size is about the same as ours.
I have a 16cm wrist, I tried the gen 5009 at the AD and thought it looked like a frisbee. After seeing the review of it I'm reconsidering o.0

tbh the size doesnt worry me as much as the thickness. the bp is such a thick watch...

I have the same exact wrist. Mine is definitely not flat and not to round either. I kinda like thick watches for casual wear but I'm a bit weary about the lug overhang. My PAM 111 is the biggest watch I have and it sits on my wrist just fine. But the quality of these new ZF BPs are amazing. I will buy them after CNY for sure. If its too big, I'm willing to take some loss and sell it back on M2M as C&R.

Lol... Dude, you've been down on this watch from the beginning. Most of the concern has been about the sunburst being too strong compared to Gen. Perhaps you should save up your thousands for the real deal...
