The watchmaker is in Milan Italy, however he doesn't usually do these adjustments, I went privately through a friend of mine.. the watch wasn't waterproof, but now it is, I was very happy with that ..
So you confirm that V2 has not solved the waterproof problem. Important to know.

in any case, I can't understand why Clean Factory, even if it manages to replicate a watch almost perfectly in every detail, neglects the fact of waterproofness.. I don't understand why they don't solve a simple but at the same time important problem, after years of productions! It would be enough to assemble them better or simply use higher level gaskets, equal to an original diver and they would make many more people happy, greetings to all!
Because their goal is to make a convincing LOOKING fake, not a convincing performing fake. If it looks good it’s mission accomplished and to hell with whether it leaks or not. If enough people complain and dealers report it to them, then maybe they get motivated to up their game to sell more watches. They certainly don’t improve things by thinkg “we need to make a better product so our customers will be able to swim with it”. They are profiteers, not passionate watch companies.
