Just wanted to share my experience with Intime in case anyone else is considering using them.

I ordered and paid for a Royal Oak from InTime and the QC images appeared to be for different watches

First picture had a watch face with black writing (incorrect color), which looks nothing like gen. This watch also has weird looking 12 o’clock indicator (white space in between the two lines)

Second picture has correct colors, but missing certain text on the watch face including “automatic” at the top and “AP” at the bottom.

Anyone else have similar issues?

Yes thats the one. Are you sure its a reflection? How can you be sure
Really?? You can't be this dense... I feel like you're pulling my leg lol.

Because the applied logo is reflective, just like the hour markers. The model you bought doesn't have the standard AP logo, nor is it supposed to have the word "Automatic" on the dial. Why would it be any different to the photos on InTime's website? It's the exact same watch.

Photos straight from their site.

People pay extra for the black lettering and you’re getting it for free.
You should be down on your knees thanking them for gifting you this gen like mod for free.

Just wanted to enlighten you about the model numbers of the watches be it Rolex or AP ( and all other watches).
Each model number entails some distinct features that may differ from the previous or different model number.
This is the same case with AP Royal Oak.
If you purchased Royal Oak 15510, then the QC pix are correct.
The features you mentioned in your post definitely refer to Royal Oak 15202.
You can search on www.chrono24.com by simply using those numbers and you wil be presented with the pictures as I described above.
Good luck with your new AP Rep!

You’re good to go. That’s a nice watch. If you reject it (we don’t say RL on RWI) your next watch probably won’t look so good.
