Looks like a solid release. SEL gap will always be visible with the right angle and backlight.

And the cyclops has a black hole and halo, and the clasp is straight after all.
Who woulda thought....

Should delete the first 17 pages of this thread.

looks indeed nice but with this SEL it's an absolute no-go for me especially at this price. Fingers crossed they can improve their tolerances. The main problem seems to be the case, as the edges seem to be a bit rounded towards the inside. They shouldn't be rounded but have a nice 90 degree angle.

It looks quite nice, but no better than anything out there to my eyes. No better than the RXF in fact (though this is considerably more expensive). We need someone to bite the bullet and buy this, the RXF, the Noob v11 and the ZZF for a monster side-by-side review. Actually, if whoever does it could buy the Gen too, that would be great, thanks in advance.

Both look good to me (from the intime pics anyway) It’s very expensive. Was hoping it would come in under 500 and give us something as nice as ZZ to buy with a clone inside for less money. I don’t think any of these should be over 500

Will await a video and in hand pics but looks like the dial transitions all the way to black on the LV instead of just dark green. Massive plus if true

As far as I can recall LV and LN have always been the same price in a parallel model release by the same factory. This is clearly price gouging cuckery by ZF.

The LV isn't iced out or fully gold. It's SS. Pure price hike due to demand.

There will be folks who buy it, because it is undebatablly a good product. However I am disappointed by the greed. I'll be happy to see someone review this but I am sticking to purchasing good ol' VSF and posting another mini review regarding a factory with relatively fairer practices.

I'll buy it.

Glass, hands, rehaut all look better than ZZF.

Will be the end of September / mid Oct though.
Wife got me a real watch recently and it would piss her off if I got another rep so soon.

I'd like to think she won't know the difference between this and my ARF.
But she'll find out.
Wives always find out.

Looks nice - except that it too has the annoying SELs gap and clasp gap that I hate the most on my Noob V10. Hope AR and ZZ will do a better job on those things.

Agreed, sir. Better than ZZF in all those respects.

But also, can confirm, wives always find out. It is inevitable.
