I agree its beautiful, but the crown guards are too short, and the pushers angled wrong.

And it looks good on Oysterflex, put the end link fit has huge gap, sorry. These end links may not be for 12 series case, or the QF case is not 1:1
Oh good point, I got them off Ali express and so they’re probably for the 11xxxx

I see you ran the chrono. Is it 12hr or 24hr? IPK claims 24hr.
Honestly I never really paid that much attentio, I know that sounds crazy, never knew the 24 was just decoration. I’ll reset it tonight and see if it counts 24 or 12… don’t hit me too hard(just didn’t know)

No worries. Not all of us are OCD like me and care about such details. Enjoy the watch and report back!

It’s a 12 hour count, just marked as 24… I really wouldn’t have notice,, I do run the chronograph all the time

It’s unlikely any of us have a practical use for a 24 counter but I just dislike the idea of it being functionally incorrect.

It was technically quite hard for Rolex to make the change from it being a 12 to 24 hour counter. Rolex had to implement a 2:1 plenary gear reduction in the space normally taken up by a simple transfer wheel.

It’s extremely unlikely that rep factories would go to those lengths for such a niche model.

That’s super cool, probably not gonna happen in rep.. I do like the IPK would like to see the QF in person
