Nice review, thanks for taking the time. Here my V2 with a brown leather strap.
No worries!
That is a sweet looking BB58, looks quite the part. What strap is that?

This is a real nice rep, I like how it matches with this leather band. Bought it from: https://www.bandrbands.com/
it is the 20 mm Chestnut classic vintage model
Hmm, I'm thinking of the horse leather strap (like what the BB58 comes with) but unfortunately when I ordered mine the TD did not seem to have it in. This could be a good alternative, if I ever manage to get the bracelet off!

I can really see what you mean by the shine on the face of the watch.
On the genuine it almost looks like metallic car paint with the shimmer whereas on the rep it's definitely flatter.
Great review, thank you!

Hi guys, I'm going to buy my BB58 ZF. I have some QC pictures: what do you think about it? Is it well made? Thanks in advance for your help!
I would ask to show the bezel aligned properly, or maybe its one click to the left, also ask for pic without the lume glowing so much, could be hiding the dreaded lume colour issue

Does anyone know the bezel assembly on this model does the bezel just pop off with click springs behind the bezel please ?

I suggest you try reading the first post in this thread, look at the pictures and make up your own mind.
CAn anyone of you here help me and give me a opinion? Whether I should get zf bb58 or a zzf no date rolex ? Which one have less flaw and which one can is more real and hard to tell compare the the real stuff

98% of people do not notice or care about watches. To those 98%, both the ZF bb58 and the ZZF 114060 will be indistinguishable from the genuine watches.
Turning now to the remaining 2% of people that are watch enthusiasts and will actually care about the watch on your wrist, there is probably a 50% chance that they will be able to spot the flaws in either model. That being said, the overly light colored lume on the BB58 is probably the most evident flaw from a distance, so perhaps the 114060 is less likely to be questioned. However, the low crown position on the 114060 is relatively easy to spot. What I am trying to say is, pick the one you personally prefer, because your likelihood of being called out is probably equal with either one, so you might as well wear the one that speaks to you.

This picture from the second post in this thread shows you everything you need to know:
I shouldn't be spoon feeding you, but here you go: on the rep ZF BB58 the lume is too light/white, the dial is flat and untextured and the numbers on the bezel insert are slightly too thin (this last one is a very minor issue). Now you have to decide whether you can live with those issues.
In the future, please try to read an entire thread before asking questions that have already been answered and discussed (in the very first post no less!)
