Just a question and not trying to be picky but asking. Is the date in the date window meant to be aligned like this?

Looks good to me. But it is always hard to judge this by only one photo. If you change the tilt and shift or the angle just a little bit the "subjective view" on the alignment will be different. Even a change of the focal length of the camera has this effect ;-) That's why I trust in this point QC-Videos rather than QC-Photos.

As you can see the VC4500 has nearly the same size as the 41mm Sub - to be precise, it is even a little bit smaller on the lug-to-lug distance. Therefore it has a "stiffer" first link of the bracelet so it feels imo a little bit bigger on the wrist. What wrist size do you have?

Thank you so much for your reply and the pictures side by side. Very helpful to get an idea abt the size. My wrist size is 6.5 inches. What do you think ? Will it look too big ?

no, 6,5 is good, I think. I have 7 and the watch fits perfect.

So I got the watch and build quality is really impressive. Really, wow. But unfortunately my clasp came in broke.

Is there a DIY fix for this? My TD said they're going to talk to ZF about it but instead of waiting for a month or two maybe I can fix this on my own?

Maybe try taking it to a mall repair guy (take clasp only if you don’t want to deal with the whole “it’s a rep” thing).

Has anyone got the zf rubber strap ? How is the quality and fit ? Mostly seen pics with the bracelet on here so was wondering if its worth getting or not

I'm not even sure if a ZF rubber strap actually exists

Puretime has the ZF 4500V listed on the bracelet as well as the rubber strap separately. I really like it on the bracelet but since i have a small wrist size was thinking maybe i should go with the rubber strap. I just don’t know if the quality of the rubber strap is good or not. Plus the fit and even the color of the strap is good enough. Not sure if anyone here has bought it on the rubber strap. Most of the pics i have seen here are on the bracelet

I'm pretty sure that's not a ZF strap but rather an 8F rubber strap mounted on the ZF

I’m loving it… thinking about getting the blue one too.

But I have to say that the bracelet of this ZF/PPF as well as the MKF Overseas are far below the quality of XF 2000v which feels most premium.
