Thanks for the suggestions. I hoped it was an easy issue to solve. Is it common to send it back and just receive a refund instead of a repair? I would prefer that..

I am not sure about that but you should consider the expense to ship it back to china in your decision.
Tell your TD about the issue and ask him what solutions he can offer.

on brown leather strap. Think it’s perfect
Looks awesome! I legit love that watch. I get more compliments on it than any other rep I wear. It’s definitely a stunner!

After seeing This movie I ordered one myself at Andrew.
It’s a stunner.

Super interested in this beautiful rep, but i'm a bit of a noob when it comes to reps and watches in general, so i'm wondering if anyone can give me a hand 
Can anyone who's owned this watch for a year or more vouch for the 8900 cloned movements reliability? I understand this is a difficult question to answer, but how long could I expect this movement to last?
Worth getting serviced on arrival or with TD (PT)? I'm in the UK and have no idea if any local watch-smiths would even work on a rep like this.
I've read this entire thread and seen a few people comment that the rotor is noisy and the watch can rattle when tapped or when moving your wrist. Would a TD (I would most likely order from Puretime) be able to check or something like this during QC, or if it arrived and was incredibly noisy potentially accept a return/replacement?
Am I being paranoid?
Sorry for all the questions

I hav 4 vsf with this movement and 1 arrived dead. The other 3 are with more than a year of usage.
Thanks for the reply mate.
No issues with rotor noise or anything on the 3 working ones?
If you shake the watch near your ear inside a quiet place then you’d definitely hear it.
There is no V2 to my knowledge, so all the flaws are still present. So you will see a slight purple hue, depending on the light, and depending on what colourway you choose. Personally, the purple doesn't really seem to be an issue in my eyes, as far as the dark blue is concerned. Take a look at the link below to see it in real life lighting conditions. Either way, its a freat rep at a great price, I would definitely recommend it.

Hi guys. Just curious, I've rejected QC pics (basically RL'ed) I've received the first time after making the order. Is it normal/usual to not receive new QC pics (a replacement) afterwards for almost a month from a TD?

Haven't seen anyone mention this in this thread...
Aqua Terra Tokyo 2020, this and the PO have been out for a while. Really want VSF to rep this... That dial is a beauty.

How many versions of blue are there? And which is the best (close to gen)? I would prefer black to tell the truth but I don't mind blue too.

I got my watch yesterday and I need to say that the blue font has exactly the same shade as the markers. The markers appear in different shades of blue depending the angle and light but their main color is the same as the print.
