ZF RM55, new super clone movement

[Mayor_McCheese]

There is no V2 as far as I am aware. The ribs in recently posted pics look exactly the same as the initial release. The new APSF/RMF has slightly improved ribs

On my watch at least can't comment on others', the packaging has 'V2' on the bag

Hello and thank you my bro As for the strap, I just bought the one I saw, I'm not that well versed on who makes the best quality and such. I just bought it from biao6688

If I recall the apsf ribs are actually stickers.
I could be wrong.

they aren't stickers on apsf. they appear to be foil stamped of some sort. looks much better than zf imo. i've owned bot ha zf and apsf.

Oh that's new to me.
I believe APSF ntpt has better shine to it, but the movement is not clone like ZF version, correct?

 

[mgberns]

i mean..everything is just better on the APSF. it is the clone movement. the stock strap is a little more stiff than other straps i've handled...

yeah, but it couldnt fit on my 8 inches wrist

I have a ZF RM055 and unfortunately one of the screws has fallen out of the clasp on the strap. Any suggestions for where to source a replacement? I've tried going through the dealer but no luck. I also purchased a replacement strap but am having trouble finding a 4 prong screwdriver that fits. Any suggestions from anyone who has replaced a strap?
Thanks in advance

the lettering on the inner dial could be way better tho

does that have threads? i have been wondering about those, but not got around to making a tool for it.

 

[dmsick]

The remaining one does not. It slides in

so your saying both of them press in?

 

[dmsick]

I took the one out out of the other Side. The threads are actually up near the head of the screw.

 

[Dollar_short]

cool, thanx. i figure both are threaded. i will have to make a tool one of these months. btw, your chances of getting a replacement are close to 0. i would find a machine screw and make it work.
