very nice, but from what I heard, many people here said that the KMF marker's flaws are UNACCEPTABLE compare to the ZF markers

so judge by the the Marker, is it so Obvious flaws that stop us from buying a KMF ?

yeah, I feel like I'm just repeating myself now -

If you're not going to mod the dial, then go with ZF because the KMF dial markers are trash. Again this is subjective and everyone might have a different opinion.

I was only talking about the dial itself , I think KMF's dial is slightly better than ZF excluding the dial markers because it has been established that ZF markers are way better than KMF.

I'm interested to know if you guys are ordering the black dial or the grey dial. All the TD have both a grey and black dial available. Which is closest to the gen. Which color should I order. Thanks

Grey dial from the TD's is correct. Black is fantasy (doesnt exist in gen)

However, it becomes confusing because Patek Philippe refers to this (reference 5167A) as "black dial" ..

What is this watch maker:
https://puretimewatch.io/aquanaut-51...324-clone.html

It says PF not ZF As for the ZF factory I only see ZF in black dial on pure time. If you could post the link to the best watch out of the box in
your opinion that would be great.

thanks

mottykytu Could you take a photo of the back side of the ZF 5167A dial? I really would like to see where the jack is and I am thinking about if put gen dial on my ZF 5167 possible. Mainly concerning is the jack position due to their different movements. Many thanks!

Really make sense, so it will be a big problem that they got totally different position of dial feet.
