Mine is KW. No free strap for now.

How come you guys are not waiting for the ZF release and see if it's better and maybe a free rubber strap?

Better than the one posted here above? Doubtful. Equal maybe. I'm just going with KW this time as the bracelet of the previous gen from ZF wasn't good at all compared to gen. KW/V6F makes stellar Omega reps externally so I hope they got the bracelet of the Pelagos right. To me that's worth more than a rubber strap.

I think I will add this to my collection as well, especially as Sead has them now.
I wouldn't wait and pick up a ZF as IME KW is better in terms of QC by far...

I am not sure the ZF dial looked pretty good....but it's hard to say without seeing them both in person/ in person with someone else. But I do want the rubber strap with it lol

Are you saying in general their QC is better or in terms of the black Pelagos?

If the KW came with the blue rubber strap I would be all over it - not loving bracelets these days

Nyuuh, and it begins... I'd like to reject this one as I feel the 11 marker is misalligned but according to the dealer it's not. I feel like I'm going to look at that marker every time I look at my watch... It's such a shite rep to get one with straight markers, with the previous gen I still ended up with one with wonky markers after 3 rejects.
Imo for 368$ they can try a little harder to allign the markers.

Hmm, looks straight to me, but tough to tell

because the markers are partly recessed and there is depth and shadows I feel like you can convince yourself that every marker is crooked, or straight.

I also got my QC pics today and I think the 1 hour marker is a bit to the left. Rest of it seems fine. Im comparing to the QC of my black v6f v1 as it turned out pretty good. Don't know if I'm allowed to ask for advice but here it is anyway.

Yours looks great, I'd definitely accept that. All markers seem to be alligned between the recessions. If there's one a little more to the left or right isn't going to be as noticable as when they're skewed.

i just realized that on the new one they do not have a 3 oclock marker. That is good. That was the one that if crooked was very noticeable.

This is the best looking QC shot I have seen on the blue beauty.
