Just ordered the MKS Spectre since the price has been reduced to 248$. I don't really care about the "JEWETS" so should be a perfect watch for me!
From vsf factory?
Why why why did the fix the TM and the bezel ring and then revert to the wrong "5”?
This is the VSF version I got from Puretime. Not sure where olah.inc got his but mine still has the TM mark on the clasp.
Because they want you make buying the next "improved" version od this model... and then the next version, with further improvements... and ....
It's a total crapshot what you will get in any given batch
Here is wrist shot. Nice!
OK here is what I feel it could have been better. Not a lot though.
1. Bezel has some play turning left or right. I think they could have tighten the mechanism abit. My Rolex GMT II (Gen) bezel feels solid. No play at all. So I am sure the Gen Spectre would be the same.
2. When I pull the crown out full the second hand stops, and when I turn the crown to adjust the hour and minute hands, I had to set up the minute hand so that when the second hand is say at 12, the minute hand should be dead center on the minute marker. But when I did this the first time, the minute hand was between the minute markers when the second hand was at 12. So I adjusted the hands again to ensure its dead center. Now it is. Not sure if this is the same on the Gen. If anyone with a Gen can advise.
I think these are the only 2 comments I have of the cons. Not a big deal though. The watch itself looks amazing.
I know this is only a replica so not expecting it to be perfect and would we be chuffed if it is. Haha....
Thanks for the quick review. Sounds promising. I recently placed an order for this watch with my TD. Perhaps a good watchmaker could tighten up the bezel. Looking forward to a more in-depth review.
I will leave the in-depth to the expert on this. I have just started on this hobby. Will be too scared to dismantle the watch at this point. Just hoping vsf can adjust the bezel so its more fitting and tighter. Pretty sure a watchmaker can tighten it.
I can respect that. I myself am still fairly new to the game, although this will be my third rep. Indeed it would be optimal if it came "tight" out of the box. Perhaps on the next version/batch.
