Ordered from Jtime today!

[gindiesel]

Put in my first order today, used Jtime for a 116506 Daytona. Great pre-sale communication, I will keep this updated as things happen.

Nice! How did you get payment to them if I may ask?

 

[gindiesel]

Transferwise. I signed up first so I was ready once I received the info from Li. They've sent me emails on the transfer process as things happen.

 

[gindiesel]

Follow up from Li: they've received my payment. I will get QC shots in 5-10 days, and will update.

Got my QC pics today! Looks great. I asked for a lume shot. Llooking closer, I'm not sure about the minute hand. The end and the tip look strange. Almost like wear marks. I asked for a check and a different photo if possible.

Seems fine from straight on, but when sideways the light catches the hands and it looks questionable. Please LMK your thoughts. Here's the link for the second photo so you can zoom in: https://ibb.co/JpBhpFp

Wait... those hands look BLACK! They're supposed to be bright silver, yes?

Looking at the official 116506 thread, check out post #39. In some light the hands look black, but they're actually bright silver? Somebody put my mind to rest here, please

It is lightning dont worry..they are steel silver

 

[gindiesel]

Thanks for the reply. I sure hope so! Subdial hands should be the same per the gen, those look black on all the rep pics I can find (and on my QCs).

I'll update when I hear back from Lana...

 

[gindiesel]

Lana sent me a new angle and a lume shot. Everything looks perfect. Approved! Can't wait to get it.

I'm still waiting for noob to correct this dial, have a look at my thread as I potentially found a supplier who has contacts with a dial maker.

Yes, I've been following that thread, thanks for doing the homework on it. Keep us posted. I know Noob will do a different version someday, but I wanted to get it done now.

 

[gindiesel]

Lana has updated me: I'll get the tracking info soon, and she cautions that China/HK customs is inspecting everything carefully to check for medical equipment exporting so there will be delays.

Beautiful mate. On the fence for this one or the dial with Arabic numerals...

 

[gindiesel]

Got my tracking info yesterday. Missed it because it went to my junk mail folder. Tracking doesn't work yet, I'll update when I can...

 

[gindiesel]

Anyone know how long it takes for 4PX tracking info to show up on Track 17? It still says "This number can't be found at this moment. It's not available in the carrier's system yet. Please check back later."

be extremely patient, it took my purchase 3 weeks to show it was picked up. it's extremely slow for all the reasons that have been previously noted.

 

[gindiesel]

Thanks, not expecting it to be fast. Last few things I've ordered from China have taken at least a month to Canada. Amazed that people in the US are getting things a week after ordering!

You might try parcelsapp or AfterShip. Seems like they track 4px a bit better than 17track. But I’m afraid 4px is just ssslllloooowwww.
