Oh, sorry. I didn´t see there were other replies on the thread until now. But better late than never haha
Yes, all fine. At first I was a bit worried about sending back the watch. Will it arrive or maybe be taken by customs? Will Puretime replace? What will i get next time?
But all ok. The mail back to china took very long but arrived in the end and they replaced to other watch without problem. No comments on the "why" though. I was hoping that they would say something about the material or if it´s general problem with the ZF being plated only. But no commet at all. They handled like a normal replacement for "broken watch." Can´t tell what happend inside though. Maybe they asked the maker about the material, maybe they didn´t even understood the problem with the case not full bronze at all. Allthough I told and wrote plenty of times.
Just, like always the communuication with out Chinese Friends was complicated. I extra told in the return/repair form that I want to change to a KW. But they would almost have send me the same ZFV4 again. Had to tell them twice again that I really, REALLY, yes I´m sure!!!! that I want the KW haha
The replaced watzh now is a KW and I´m very pleased. It really looks better. More bulky abit and more close to the gen I think. The case is already starting to get a bit patina like I want it. After a short trip to the sea I gave it 2 baths in icy winter seawater
I wanteed to write about the new KW before and show pics. But was a bit in stress with work and had no time yet.
I still also wonder about the ZF´s material. Still not sure if they all are really plarted or mine was a flawed one. But why would they make one plated with bronze only ? So I guess the y really are plated. But no member will try to cut his ZF open to be sure I guess lol

Wow, Watch looks great. Is the pearl noticeably green on the wrist ? OR is it white like Gen?
Awesome your TD hooked it up and did you right.

The pearl is more white. The ZF I had before was more green, if I remember correctly. The pearl on the KW is a bit brighter than the markings on the watch. Like this is more like the gen?
