XF Royal Oak

July 15th Order placed on a XF 15202
Still awaiting QC Pics...

Andrew said it can take up to 20 days based on other orders after the raids.

One person on Reptime had been waiting since May. Hang in there…

Oh but that was during the raids? Did he get it?

I made the decision to change from XF to ZF instead. Both because XF wait time seems longer and because the bracelet is not so good on the XF.
The dial is better on XF but that's how it is..

QC pictures came today! I Asked Andrew Yesterday if there were new raids and Andrew said it was. I told him i wanted to cancel my order if this ment that it would take serveral weeks for him to get the watch. He asked if I could give ZF till the end of the next week and I said yes. Then a couple of hours later I got the QCs.. It was the exact same situation with my last order so I dont know what's going on there, but hey! Andrew manage!

So it all looks good to me except the markers in the 12 position. It looks ever so slightly missalinged, but maybe I should live with that?

Sweden. I now see that I need to pay 113 SEK for the package in Customs. It's not that much but I hope they don't open the package.

I just got the watch but it seems like there is a problem with it and I need some help.. It doesn't matter how much I turn the crown when it's not pulled out the escape wheel won't run.. When I pull the crown out and set the time and then push the crown back in the escape wheel starts to spin some but stops after a few seconds.. What is the problem?

And suddenly from nowhere when i was adjusting the bracelet i noticed that it was working.. dont know how or why, maybe it got dry or magnetized during the jurney to me?

Once again. Thank you Andrew for the great experience and your effort to get the watches even during the raids!

Thanks!
I think the bracelet is ZFs strong point! It's very nicely finished and it feels great to wear. The weakpoint of ZF is the dail I think which does not have a sunburst effect as great as other clones. But I still think ZFs execution is the best overall.

Just so you know. There is still something wrong with the watch. A screw on the case was loose and as soon as I tighten it the watch stops.. The watch will only work if the screws on the case is very loose. It's very strange.
