The rep is far from 12mm! Would really love to know where that picture with the false measurement is from. Was that AI generated?

Here's my QC pic and the watch measures 13,3mm IRL! That's totally disappointing.

Damn I had ordered one as but will cancel, >13mm is too much particularly as it's only a 40mm watch so it will be quite noticeable. 😞

I can’t believe they still keep repping these radiomir with the p.9xxxx movement. Why can’t they just rep the simple radiomirs if beyond me..

If we can trust the pictures of the QC (pics with white glove) from this post, you'll see that the case is quite ok looking from the top. https://forum.replica-watch.info/threads/new-upcoming-stuff-from-vsf-factory.10969339/post-11656840

The main issue is the thickness and there's some mismatch between the 12mm in these pictures and the info on intimes site. @Jimbothegreat ; where are these pictures with the 12mm from?

In the QC I received today the case looks significantly thicker than 12mm ...

The 12mm pic I received is from the QC pics I was sent. Did Steve use calipers to measure?

As you can see in the pics he used a digital sliding gauge. If Steve measured it and Intime's site states the same, then I'm pretty sure it's 13,4mm.

Looking forward to you measuring your watch once in your hands.

Thanks,
Is there a difference between them in terms of visibility?
I mean, does one of them look closer to the original?

You should open a thread in the PP secion and ask the question there. You'll get better answers. I can't tell you this, because I don't own both.

Can I see your other QC pics?

It's still a nice watch you surely will be able to pass on if you don't like it.

Just not what I wanted and was hoping for. I went to the AD some months ago and loved that I could wear it like a dress watch. Quire difficult with a rep of this thickness.

sure. I cancelled the order, so no problem with that.

I just had another one remeasured with digital calipers and you are so very right. My apologies for the misinformation everyone. It was not intentional, was just trying to help. The watch is actually 13mm.

Wasn't your fault. You gave me hope for a couple of days that I wouldn't need to go gen to get a slim PAM.

I'm still wondering how they managed to measure 12mm.

You can get 12mm if you don't measure to the top of the crystal dome but the top of the bezel
