Have no idea about the 12 and 9 clock function, other functions will be same as genuine. The pic is sent by ZF, looking forward to the real watch on wrist

Confirmed: ZF will make new dial, remove the 'SPITFIRE' both on bronze and steel models, then release...need to wait more time... and the movement will use modified 7750 movement, 12 o'clock sub seconds, different from genuine, because the 7750 movement can't be mod to match genuine function

For all guys with "stronger" arms: I tried this watch as gen at a presentation. It wears very small. If you can wear a BP and it is looking perfect at your arm, this watch may look like a kids watch.
Although the bronce version is fantastic. But the best is the running second @6 and if they don't rep this feature it's a NoGo for me.

They have showcased the watch around the boutique back in March, I've personally tried it on myself. So that pic could have been gen, just not the retail version.

The 7750 movement can be modified to match the function, but will be 1~2 mm thicker, the watch will be very thick. The whole watch outside looking is much important than function.
To each his own. I would rather have a slightly thicker watch with correct functions. Wrong or incorrect functions, as well as the printed text on the dial, are conspicuous inaccuracies; a slightly thicker case can easily be disguised. Fake functions are for fake watches, and I hate a fake watch! LOL
I WAS very excited about this new release...
Hope ZF can rep this Chrono https://www.hodinkee.com/articles/iwc-pilots-watch-chronograph-reference-iw377724-hands-on
Not my way. They should definitely build their own movement with running sec@6. They can use it for other watches also.
The factories were able to build a flying tourbillon and a nearly perfect rep of the IWC 50xxx movement series with power reserve function. It's not a big deal to build a chrono movement with running sec@6.

This next generation of inhouse IWC movement using running seconds at "6"
They can build whatever faux watches as they want. We just cant accept this like fools watch.

Review just out, and yeah they moved the running seconds to 9 o’clock instead of the original 6

Just saw new release of this watch on puretime. Looks like ZF.
But Stupid release seconds at 9 oclock..
I am not buying this.
Thanks
