I am going to resurrect this somewhat dead thread but I ended up with rejecting all of the QC pics of the ZF and did not get a pelagos afterall. Every single watch from ZF had HORRIBLE hour markers...I mean, terrible!

I am now desperately waiting for someone to post a pic of the KW version so that we can all see how it stacks up (KW quality is typically superior to ZF)

go for KW/V6... you do nothing wrong with them. But anyways, you havent no another choice...

I want to see if the KW blue is different than the ZF or the Gen per say...I can't believe that no one has purchased the KW version

I'm looking into a pelagos blue and now doing the research for a ZF or KW/V6F V2!
I agree that ZF's own QC sucks. I just got a ZF tudr black shield I only got a decent watch on the 4th one, tooke me two weeks of QC pics, lol.

lol all of this sounds exhausting. I think I am going to save up my money and buy a Vac modded Pelagos blue and let him do all the QC hassle, modding crystals and water proof testing... all that. Because I am a lazy bastard with high expectations and a fragile ego LOL

I don't think VAC touches the hour markers buddy. I have seen plenty of vac (and similarly modded) pelagos watches (almost all of them were ZF based) and not a single one had decent hour markers. I honestly don't know why it is even considered as a good rep, if the every hour marker is in a different place, it is a terrible rep in my books and I am yet to see a ZF one with good hour markers

PS: Lucy tried to get me one not too long ago and every single one had to be rejected (she didn't even have to ask me)...then I asked Sead not too long ago of he can get me one with decent hour markers and he said (and I am quoting him) "mate, it is like mission impossible"...lol

You gotta be blind as a bat if you don't see the crooked hour markers! I warn you tho, once you see it, you can't unsee it (and it will bother you forever..and you will never find a good zf pelagos or happiness for that matter)

Well shit lol I really wanted a blue watch I could take diving but didn't wanna go gen in case the size was too big for me. I could afford the gen if I sold my Rolex but I don't want to sell it lol

Are the markers glued down or just pin held in place? In other words, could one of our expert watchsmiths and modders straighten then out during a service or upgrade?

Did you managed to get yourself a V6F V2?

I am also thinking hard if i should get this.. wonder what are the straight tells and how is the bracelet...

I heard that in terms of weight, V6F is lighter than ZF, which can feel cheap...

Anyone get the V2 KW/V6F and compare it to the ZF? Is the blue similar?
