Hello guys, this is a ZZF v2 no date. Do you see the gap from the bezel to the body? Is it normal? I'm afraid the dealer cheat me... Thanks for you help!



same issue on ZZF V2 No date... so should be fine.

The pic from Beciuzz is absolutely not normal, lol. You should not have a visible gap between the bezel and the case. You should not be able to see the click balls. You should be able to see the crystal above the insert. His watch is so wrong, the bezel needs to be pressed down to the case

ahhh...I see ... you're right I only focused on the fron part...as you can see I can see a tiny gap as well....but I guess this is quite okay compared to Beciuzz gap

I think that a buying guide, similar to that which we have for the 116500LN, is in order for this watch. These reps from ZZF, Noob, and ARF are outstanding. It's actually so hard to choose now! I would volunteer to do the buying guide myself, but I don't think that I have the requisite knowledge of the watches to do it. If anyone was going to do a write-up, I'd be willing to help out, though (in any way that I can)! I think that using some of the pictures from the start of this thread would be a good idea, and adding a few pictures from updated batches, or something.

It's good but mine has alignment all over the place with each number. Some are okay and some are just awfully misaligned.

Is there a good A2824 DW you can replace it with anybody knows?

what do you mean alignment

I'm wearing my ZZF v2 every day, it's a great watch. Looks and feel gen and the VR3135 movement is so far very precise and reliable. Great watch, although the biggest flaw is the slight distortion in the hole near the hands stack if you look closely, my guess they will fix it with the v3 but for now I'm happy!

The distortion is ok its there because gen LN has that. Its not a flaw its replicated from gen models. Gen LV dials do not have this only LN.

Looking again at the pics the liquid dial is just really bad on this one.

Can anyone confirm if the latest 'no date' version has the V2 updates?

There should be no latest no date only one no date and its with V2 updates.

I just received the V2 LN and I also have the ARF v3 LN. Wanted to compare the two. ZZF looks really gen like a lot better than ARF. ARF in the other hand feels much more gen like. ZZF bracelet is rattling and squeaking mess compared to ARF.

My choice would be the ZZF any day over the ARF though for the gen like look and closeness in details (dial with markers, insert, SELs, DW, case shape and etc). It just looks much more gen like.

Thanks for the info. I'll give the ZZF a try then and maybe add the ARF bracelet if I feel the need.

No need I think I may have exaggerated a bit regarding the bracelet. I wont swap them its good enough on its own as well.

You will be very happy with the ZZF. Everybody is ordering the new V2S Hulk so there should be plenty of LNs available. I got the QC pics the same day from Li I placed the order on.

I ordered my zzf v2 last week from jtime and received the QC pics this morning! The only concern I have is the amplitude seems to be at the low end of acceptable and I’m wondering if this can be adjusted before shipping, or is it something that can be lived with? I understand it’s a replica and concessions must be made, but according to the required reading for noobs, 250° amplitude is at the low end of acceptable. Everything else on the timegrapher seems to be well within acceptable parameters.

Ah, OK. I'll give it an oil bath and go from there. Do you have any images you can post? Who did you buy from?

Oil bath seems a good idea and is needed for ZZF.

I got it from Li from JTime.
