I haven't seen anything. In the meantime, I've ordered and received QC for the 8F 4500V. The latest version looks pretty damn good, so no reason to wait for a ZF that looked pretty bad when first dropped.
ZF 4500v is expected to release within 1-2 weeks. They will fix the SWSS engraving according to my dealer.

Can't wait! The blue dial might not be gen like but the white should be easy to rep!
Is this the 2015 model with 12, 3, 6 and 9 numerals or the latest model?

You can see the pics if you google. There's a Reddit thread that has them. Honestly, it's a fine watch, but after seeing them, I decided that it isn't better than 8F. The misprint on the caseback and misaligned dates kind of ruins it.
I reached out to Geektime yesterday and they said ZF hasn't released it yet. He still has the original one in hand with the misspelled 'SWSS'. He also said that ZF hasn't given him a price for it yet either. From what they were telling me, with the virus is spreading badly again in China and many cities are being shut down again, its harder to source things at the moment
My brother in Shanghai says its the worst time for new cases, lockdown all over. My 8F arrived LHR yesterday so should be in hand soon

My experience with ZF has always been solid built watches, but terrible QC and small issues. 2 of my ZF has misalaigned date wheels. I sent it to watchsmith, the guy told me that the datewheel is printed slanted so there's nothing he could do. smh
