Guys, you do realise if you don't like the shade the blue you can do the same thing everyone else has been doing since the dawn of time with their five digit GMT Masters

1) Bleach
2) Sunshine
3) Good Timing
4) Big baaaaaaaaals to be first to try it on this piece

Now go forth and report back with your findings

I am quite happy with the rep blue.

Here's some more shots

So this is my first tudor, so my question might be trivial but still...
I got the QC from my TD:
1 - The bezel looks a bit funky? the dots between the numbers - they look too close to the edge?
2 - The back engraving looks "rough"?
3 - the "lume markers" are not aligned to the "dial markers"? see 12 and 6
4 - Since I'm new to tudor I've got to ask - what else i'm missing? :)

Not trying to go off topic, but I think there may be many people in the same boat as me. If you were to choose one, how would you decide between this ZF GMT Pepsi and the Pelagos V6F v4. I like both of them equally, but want others opinions since this is my first and it seems that there are many Tudor owners in this thread. I have always worn SS and never had a titanium watch. Does the titanium finish make the Pelagos appear and feel cheaper than a SS?

2. Yes, the "MANUFACTURE" engraving on the bottom of the case back looks like it was almost double engraved. I would reject on that alone.
3. The markers do looked crooked

Please post your own photos when it arrives.

Anyone else here having problems with (not-so) InTime? I’ve always purchased from PT but tried IT for the first time after reading about how quick turnaround was for members on this thread.

But then it has been over a week, I accepted QC (even with bad lighting and low quality photos) right away to expedite the process and yet their responses take so long and seem very generic/templated. Up to now The watch hasn’t shipped.

This wouldn’t have happened with the guys at PT. I feel like I cheated on them. Lol. I guess it’s mt fault then. ????

I purchased mine from InTime on the 13th November and received QC photos today (16th), so very reasonable time there. However as you said the QC images were quite poor (see photo below).

Please can get all of your opinions on this QC, specifically:
  • 6 marker looks off centred?
  • 9 markers looks odd?
  • Are the SELs correct?
  • Anything else worth pointing out?

Received mine today. It's absolutely beautiful in person. I put it on a strap from a BB Red, I think it looks great pretty good on it too.

And a pic with my other 2 gens.
