VC222 - in the works for local buyers (from Xing Patrick)

[xingpatrick]

When can we get this??

To be honest, I'm not sure. My local friends and I are doing it, but there are still many problems. But the good news is that if what you want is not vintage 222, there should be another better factory producing it, not v9 or tw. There will be a better one.

Very much awaiting a better modern 222 historiques along with the SS fantasy models from ZF or so.

From the other thread : another one is coming

This one looks miles better. Simply the date position and color of dial is better (gold not salmon)

That’s the same factory as the one I got in my qc, it looks decent in that lighting but it’s really bad irl and in a majority of other lighting.
My dealer said the quality is pretty bad.

I’d hold off until a better factory releases it like xing said

Thickness is 8.7mm from hillbilly’s pic

He also posted a video of him moving the watch and it has the typical miyota helicopter rotor

dam that dial color looks horrendous even in different lightings.

 

[derrickcrash]

The white dial version is almost passable if it wasn't for that tilted Maltese cross. Sigh. It's a $300 watch. Let's not look a gift horse in the mouth.

Waiting on a better quality one for sure
Thanks to the gents to bought this.. and shared QC's

 

[Fettekatze]

Maybe one can pry it off with a sharp screwdriver and glue it back on straight.

 

[locvs]

YG doenst look right.
And the croocked cross seems to be an issue. Still can't believe they made this one. Might grab one in the future.

Xing seems to be doing it well, I’ll wait and see.
