Hi guys. I'm more of an AP guy, but I've been drawn to this watch for a while now, and when the priced dropped, I jumped on it. Looking for a bit of advice on the QC pics. Other then the obvious the the bezel isn't lined up, are there any obvious major flaws? Thanks for the help in advance.

Do you have any more frontal shoots? Looks like bezel is misaligned or the dial is crooked to the left as date also doesn't look centered.

I asked for new shots with the bezel aligned. I'll post when I get them. Does the rest look good? Thanks for the help.

So here are QC's of watch number 2. Looks much better. Maybe not perfect, but good enough for me. Am I missing anything?

Shall I accept it?

This is already third time KW sends me QC photos. First two times 12 o'clock markers were not parallel. Now it seems that 30 and 45 are bit crooked.
Would you accept with these faults?

Perhaps less copper in the metal composition? I am not sure how this compares to the GEN however.

ALE had a chemical analysis done on a kw case and confirmed the bronze used is essentially the same as gen.

Some of the cases I have seen from KW appear to differ in color, depending on the photo. I suspect lighting may play a part in this. I would not be surprised to learn that the batches of bronze cases could vary in there Cu and Al composition (and others) as well.

Hi,

I'm really keen on buying one of these 382 replica, I've been reading some of the KW and ZF version of the watch. Would you guys be able to tell me where to purchase some of these watches? I could only found Kuvarsit website from a quick search. Appreciate your help!
