Hey guys, first time ordering a rep watch. Would anyone be able to give my QC a quick look?

Imgur is the blocked site. I tried attaching the images but the file size was too large.

Is it true that ZF JLC Ultra Thin is out of stock now?
Yes it is, appearently this watch is always out of stock, I believe they just do few pieces each batch because they always finish immediately.

Hey all, long time lurker. Can anyone give your thoughts on this? I feel the alignment for the 6 is a bit off but my TD says that this is the best it's gonna be. Should I accept it? Do you think I'm being too picky?

Many thanks in advanced!

Too picky. You pass this one, next one will have something else and so on. Just get it and enjoy it!

Mine had the same issue with the 6 marker, I took the front off the watch (it’s easy as it’s only held in place with 4 screws) and straightened it up a bit.

even though, that marker is so small when it on your wrist you won’t notice it.

Hi all, this JLC Ultra Moonphase is both my dream watch and my first rep and I received the QC pics today

From what I've read, an amplitude of 220* is real low, and +14.2 s/d is nothing to write home about either. I understand that the lift angle set to 52* should really be 51* for this movement but even still, I think the amplitude will still be in the low range even if retested at 51*.

The watch itself looks almost cosmetically perfect, the only "defect" I see is the 3 o'clock marker is slightly tilted down, this is easier to see when the watch is in the horizontal position. Given that people are not concerned about the tweaked 6 o'clock marker in the watch above, I can live with this as well and I'm more concerned about the timekeeping figures.

Keep or ask Puretime for another or perhaps re-test fully charged @ 51*?

The watch looks great! The Timegrapher results are ... yes...let’s say nice...for the ass^^
they don’t care about liftangles, and maybe the powerreserve isn‘t fully loaded...so the only thing you can use is 28.800 bph. For a true result they should test it for a long period on different angles...

i would accept it

Hi there,

I think I got this one and rejected it because of timegrapher results... But they do seem better on here so maybe it wasn't fully wound.

The watch is really perfect esthetically I find, one of the better batches.

I just wanted to point out the other reason I rejected it : a little spot in the moon phase section on the right bottom corner... Don't quite know what it is but had to reject 2 of these because of this. Just letting you know, might have been me over complicating things.

It's really a wonderful watch, just received it today... I'm in love!

I decided to reject this watch. If it was just one of these issues I would have kept it but having 3 (including the spot in the right corner) just felt like one too many.

hopefully this won’t bite me in the ass with the next one they show me.

I dunno, I feel you will never get that perfect watch you are after. There will always be a flaw here or there, it is a rep after all. Even gens are not exempt from certain 'flaws'.
