Hi,

I have one question about the QC pics I just received from TD.

Looks great, at least, that is what I think.

However, Am I seeing things and being fussy? I usually buy M2M so i'm not really experienced in the whole 'qc departement.

The SEL, are they acceptabele? There is a bit of a gap. Should I reject or was I just really lucky with my first Pelagos looking more' solid' and just quit hesitating?

I hope I'm not making an ass of myself by posting this.


This is my second Pelagos XF v4, I have slightly damaged my other Pelagos so I'm replacing it with this one. , the old one will come on m2m soon

Not enough to reject (for me) in all honesty.

Looks great to me.

What happened your other one? I might be interested in it.

You are looking at a picture that is 10 to 20 x magnification. So the space between the lug and end link looks huge. With the naked eye you wouldn;t even notice it.

As well as the comments above, you’re also looking at a pic with a really bright white background. That and the fact the watch is being held up by the bracelet at an angle which opens up the SEL gap combine to really exaggerate it.

If you think about it, there is very little chance the tooling of these parts has changed since you had you first one, and these are large cast parts. My bet is that these parts are identical to your current XF.

Guys,

Thanks a million. I had the feeling it was OK but you guys really reassured me.

The other one is my daily beater. I wore it when I was helping a friend move and it sustained a little damage, that is probably acceptable to many people but I'm the kind of person that cannot 'unsee' things. It's basically a little dent in the titanium ring, because the Titanium is quite soft I guess. As soon as this baby arrives I'll send you a message first ( @restandrelaxation) , as you were kind enough to help me out here.

Yeah It's looks great.
Really appreciated, I don't mind a bit of wear and tear 👍
