Need a favor... Can someone with a V6F measure the opening in the endlinks (where the center links of the bracelet or the rubber strap goes?) Trying to figure out a couple strap options.

Many thanks!

Has anyone seen a side-by-side comparison between a gen and the ZF? So far I have seen a production photo comparing the bezel on a gen and the ZF, but not a comparison of the finished version and a gen. If they've got the color absolutely right I'll buy it :)

I just bought a GEN Blue Pelagos, might soon get a ZF to do a comparison for members. Should be with me within a week now :)

My friend works at an AD so I took my KW Pelagos to do a comparison. Side by side the KW looked fantastic. His boss was there and the video cameras were on so I couldn’t take pictures but I will try to get comparison pics later. He said he might be able to take it home for a night so I could look at it more closely.

Just approved my QC pics on my ZF. My TD is the best. It took a week but they've sourced a near perfect watch, the markers are spot on! Boom!

I have once again searched, and I have once again read the entire tread. I cannot find side-by-side photos, only claims that the ZF colors has a better match. How good it is is impossible to know without side-by-side photos, and we all know that blue is a color rep makers struggle to get right. However, it was only a question, just ignore it if it upsets you :)

ZF is suppose to have better blue. I haven't seen it side by side but I'm planning a GEN vs. ZF compare as soon as i get both in :)

Hello all,

I've got a real quick question to shoot. I'm a newbie so I hope you don't mind. I see you guys have been suggesting ZF over KW. I pulled the trigger on a KW and waiting it to come in. Do you think I did the wrong thing? I wasn't really happy with the lugs when I received the QC pics but I went ahead.

There's not a lot between them, there's an error with the kw caseback spacing and the shade of blue appears to be more accurate on ZF, you could always order a ZF as well and just flip the one you don't want on m2m. I ordered the ZF I'll post pics once it drops

Thanks. That spacing issue is huge deal breaker for me. I might need to let it go for a reasonably lower price.

What's a big issue to you might not be for others. You shouldn't lose much on it, some people prefer buying m2m over TD's. If your markers are straight, that's maybe more attractive than taking the risk with a ZF which tend to be poorer QC.

Totally agreed. i think it's a habit that i've carried over from flipping gen Rollies. i sincerely hope it turns out better than it initially look.

Thanks a lot for the input again!
