Looking forward to seeing live pics, especially of crown guard and back. If its a good representation, I wonder if the crown guard would fit my XF 127...

i don't think it's hwf version in pics. it doesn't look like hwf crown guard unless they refined it.

No doubt there is some cgi involved as there is zero reflection but as you can see from my gen crystal there is minimal distortion straight on

Ok, we have to wait for real photos.

But the crystals were - to put it politely - not exactly a sign of quality at the past HWF 47s ;-) So my expectations are not really big.

Yep, nothing credible. But their 1080 and 605 are nevertheless both beautiful watches ... more in the sense of homages then of proper Reps of course ;-)

From HWF I can expect anything now. Just you wait, now they make the 127 with the 372 case.

I agree that it makes sense to wait for real photos.

Judging from HWF's past work, there's not much chance they won't make it out of all the parts we've seen before on 47mm models, it's especially interesting to see how they handle the look of movement as there isn't a single declaration in that style. from them has not yet been shown. At the same time, as I understand it, despite the fact that the XF is not perfect - they are on sale now, and this is real competition, in a similar price range, despite the fact that the model itself is probably one of the best-selling.
It makes sense to put more effort into this than before.

Thanks. This looks like a winner, the amount of distortion looks good to me. Maybe the experts can chime in. The cutouts might be just a tad thicker but not too bad.

Glad they used the decorated movement. I wonder how it compares to the XF, given the good photos.

But what happens to the shape of the crown? Since when did the CG lever get a roller?
