Update. I RLd the watch and called them out on their franken SF parts. Andrew/ Trusty states "It is not a franken watch. The stock is direct from XF factory. SF factory is no longer around.

Well, Andrew is not telling you any lies by stating that it is NOT a franken watch.... TBH, if you want a new 127 from a TD I really don't see what other options you have. It is what it is.

When I called him out on it. He stated that IS an XF "straight from the factory." It's more likely an HWF....

If you don't want to trust an RWI trusted Dealer, then perhaps you should turn your focus on finding a Noob/XF/Franken 127 in the M2M section.

SF doesn’t exist but parts still exist and are still being produced. xF is probably using those parts now. xF is just putting watches together from different parts.

Received these QC pics from TT for new watch #2. The CG looks a little rough but better. What say you all?

It's quite obvious that this watch is from the HW factory. It's quite laughable how these two positions I've marked don't align with the original version at all.
