I just got in contact with hont and ordered me one in petrol as well. Apparently QC will take a while due to shortage and CNY. Looking forward to it!

Why should you be afraid about improvements? 🤷‍♂️ let’s lean back and wait for some QC‘s. I doubt it’s gonna be worse.
We like to assume that a later version = improvements. Human logic means we assume that a later version has to be better, right?

But replicas dont work like normal logic. They might improve the dial but switch bezel suppliers. One step forward two steps back. This has been shown many times.

Is the glass half empty or half full?
I'm pretty sure it won't be "worse".
It's V7F, after all.
Ideally, they have corrected the dial pattern under the logo or the "swiss made". There were no other flaws.
If not, it's still fine for me.

If you use old data like the NWBIG list or just at least some reference, improvements were always a good deal.

Great piece of work is this rep. Aqua version is literally insane, best new watch in years, black is great too. I always regretted a bit not getting earlier black Ingenieur version with Lelo's correct wheeldate. Definitely on my buy list, regrettably saving for first more expensive (for me) gen for now...

Ready to hand out my money any time but still waiting for a side by side with gen aqua. Its a shame the gen ones are boutiques only and so rare. Dont think we are gonna have one soon.

Wonder if v7f will update the clasp when IWC does. If you didn't know already, they're replacing the clasp with a new one, free retrofit for owners that bought from boutique.

What are they changing about it? Is it still the butterfly clasp?
