I don't see the point really, a lot of trouble for a bit more of a glow. I find the lume quite ok, yes, our Gen Spectre was a little stronger--but this is a copy ( a bloody good copy ), so it will do me "as is" until I can get another Gen Spectre down the track.

It feels good and looks good on my wrist and eases that feeling of loss with no longer having a Gen Spectre & at times I forget this is my new Rep & not my Spectre - that realisation is both regretful and calming as I admire how good this watch is. Well done VSF.
Just enjoy it mate.;)
:)

Bezel turning video https://imgur.com/a/xaB6zZp

is the bezel really so hard to see? In my QC photos i basically cannot make it out in certain angles. however, I posted a video of the bezel being turned and it looks ok.Also, I cannot make out any gap between the bezel and dial crystal...

Does anyone see any issues with this watch?
All perfect

Hi Space, Yes the damn Bezel is hard to look at, which is the same as mine is. Don't worry when it's on the wrist yu won't notice it so much. As for your watch its perfect my friend. Just remember that its smaller then the pics so anything won't be noticable with your eyes. And even tho it might not be 100% Gen its as close as you can get it.. Enjoy your watch mate.

On the subject of bezels.
Mine has already developed quite a bit of play. I am able to move it side to side in any direction about 1mm.
I don't really want to go down the returns route.
Can anyone suggest any fixes / repairs for a loose bezel?
Thanks in advance.

That’s about what both of my spectres have, so depending on how much you turn it. You can use some dental floss poke it through and wrap around a few times.

Super rep-noon here. I bought an incredible spectre from intime (Ryan). Everything is incredibly good, but the lume is almost absent. This picture is after an entire sunny day, but no lume at all. I wrote to Ryan to please ask if it's everything OK, but honestly I have some doubts. I saw other rep picture with beautiful lume. Please note that I am not talking about the color, but the presence/absence of the lume. Jn other words, it's impossible to use the watch during the night.
Thanks for your comments.

I've seen people complain about the lume. Mine is fairly bright but fades rather quickly. My ZF BB58 is a torch compared to it though.

Thank you very much for this picture. Now I am quite sure that mine as some kind of defect. I hope TD will help in some ways.

Hi, Try to use your camera phones light on it up close for 1 min, and then post that pic for me please.

Mine fades quite quickly where my Gen shone for most of the evening.

I have a V2 "pRe-RaId" that fades after initial exposure but will glow for at least 12 hours. Even my gen Seamaster does that.

One minute under my iPhones light, sorry for the ghosting but you get the idea of how bright it is, it will be completely dark in a few hours.

Send you TD the link to this page, Hope that helps you get sorted.

Thanks guys for your help, I already tried to charge it under a LED lamp for an hour. Unfortunately, almost nothing. I hope TD will help. I'll let you know. Thanks again.

That's not an issue that you contact a TD about. That's just how fake watches can be, some batches of the same watch are better than others. There's nothing your TD can or will do about poor lume.

With all due respect, I don't agree. As I said I am not an expert of reps, but this problem is not a known issue of this rep (otherwise I wouldn't complain about it). As you said, probably we have some defective item sold by the TD. I believe TD job is to sell no defective rep. The absence of the lume, in my opinion, is a big issue because it is almost impossible to use the watch during the night. If the TD cares about its customer and has a minimum of customer services and care, I believe he will find some solution. Thanks

I can see your point somewhat but this is what the QC is for. I'm 99% sure you got a lume pic from your TD. You can take your chances of sending it back and it may or may not reach the destination if the TD is actually agreeing to take back a watch you took off all the stickers of, presuming that's what you did, or you could just live with it and learn for the next time. Getting good at QC is a big part of buying reps and not get disappointed.
