This should be the Rotor in the Gen Caliber...
I don't see the ' Ocean Commitment ' writing, maybe they confused the new FF 5008 - 1130 with the Blancpain FF Ocean Commitment ,. this one ?

Here is the back of the ' Ocean Commitment III ' ...seems like ZF had taken this Version of the FF (Ocean Commitment) to made that rotor...

Yes, the Ocean Commitment is the second new release from ZF
What I find confusing on the first sight is the color of the hands ... both ZFs have white hands while the Gen have silver/titanium hands.
They used the same sticked dummy wheels as they did on the previous version. That is annoying.
I can't see from the pictures if they fixed the fake escapement bridge.

Very typical ZF to be honest. To me it looks like they slapped leftover parts together.
Milspec, finally, even with the flaws. Love it
Been a loooooong time coming. Congrats
Up next a proper speedy, tudor bb58 bronze? Dare I ask?

Agree. Ordered it. Will share photos.
Totally agree on the rotor picture for the MilSpec - told Intime they may want to clean that up. Regardless, something like that shouldn't pass QC on the buyer's end -
Ordered a Milspec from Intime. We will see. I can live with the wrong rotor and the fake bridges.
Just bought the FF because I bought a SwatchXBlancpain last week.
Normally I don't like Blancpain's design.

Bezel insert also looks messy. Diamond at the top 'melts' into the top of the dial. Would buy a V2 with this and rotor fixed.
does yours have white hands or silver hands?! I just got one a couple weeks ago from Andrew and it has white hands. Waiting for some Ali hands that look similar. I think with the reference they are trying to mimic should have silver hands (same shape). I’m also going to mod the hygrometer which does not look gen (it should have a texture like paper). The notches on the bezel are the wrong shape. All that being said I do really like it. Mine just needs a little love!
Just dropped a quick review of my new ZF Mil-Spec here: https://forum.replica-watch.info/th...8-tribute-to-fifty-fathoms-mil-spec.10993250/
