I placed my first order, paid a deposit today for a OP T-Blue dial, 124300 41mm Clean. Really great service from Steven so far, very attentive to questions. Can't wait to see the QC photos/videos!

15-Oct: QC photos received (Steve sent me QC photos of the VSF accidentally instead of Clean, but decided to proceed with it)
19-Oct: GL the VSF model

Will post up a photo once received.

Just received the watch yesterday. Super fast shipping from Steve. Looks amazing as well! Only one thing I noticed, the watch is losing about 16 sec/day, not too sure why because the QC timegrapher was showing -1 sec/day. Any ideas?

I also realised that the iPhone's don't seem to capture photos of the colour well. It's much lighter in person and way closer to Gen (if not the same).

-16s/day is not very handy.
But a problem like this is not unusual for these watches.
Maybe later on you can search a watch maker on this forum and send the watch for a service, the accuracy can be improved.

Yep good idea, will take it to a watchmaker to regulate it! I'm thinking maybe it lost its accuracy due to shipping and being thrown around most likely.

Bro, it is true that, as you said, the vibration that occurs during transportation can affect the walking error, if you have a high demand for accuracy, and then let the watchmaker adjust it
