The ZF version of the PAM569 is for sale (albeit without the chamfered CG). But the PAM508 and the PAM382 are also nice. It really depends on you.

Payment already make to tswatch, and I can't find Pam569 ZF on their website, so I guess I will have to change as they don't how long have to wait for stock to be in. Already had headache when decide between this 3 model, now no stock... Haha

If you really want the 569, and the CG flaw doesn't bother you, You could also ask to TSWatch if they could source for you the 569 ZF, despite it is not on their website. Any TD should be able to access to same watches.
I went through your same problem to choose between these 3 watches. I just ordered the 569kw, but in case it was not available I would go for 382. It could also be possible that the picture on TSWatch website are not updated and that the only 382 kW available at the moment is the V3, just ask them to confirm it if this is the case.

ZF 569 is bothering me that y think I will got for 382 but if is not V3 den I will go for 508 KW V6F.

Already them to get confirmation of what version is that 382. Hope it will be the V3.

What is the CG flaw on the ZF 569?

Imho indices might appear slanted due to reflections on the SS rim.
CP doesn't look as good as others I've seen.
Is this tbe seagull or the 7750?

Anyone has the Seagull already? I might be getting one as well (apart from KW)....

One question: the sunken / pointy CP is something that can me remedied / modded?

My QC for KW Seagull version.

I don't like the pearl and CP. What do you think?

Who knows... no one tried yet as far as I know.
If it's only a matter of pressing the hands down further, it could be probably done, flattening the pin should not be difficult...

Pearl looks darker because of the more saturated pic.
CP looks flat but I can't say if it's flush or not.
Seems ok to me overall, I would accept it.

Yes, I flattened and polished a cannon pinion of a MM Submersible (024 homage) Seagull inside.

Hi Guys... First post for me here (although been into reps since 2002 or so)...

I saw that the 569 went on sale at a certain TD site and was so happy... When I got the QC pics, the CG shape was wrong (just a half moon, no chamfers). I complained about it and he said that I was looking for a gen watch!!??
Then he sent me another tiny photo (not a qc just off his website), and it looked better but I wanted to see real qc pics...
In the end, he was unable to comply, and sent a refund... I think he thought I would be a PITA, where actually, I just want a good quality watch as advertised!! :-S

Anyway, I've read through this thread; it 'seems' that everyone is happier with the KW V6F version (which is also the Kuvarsit I hope!), but there 'could be' issues with the CP and the bezel dot lume. Is that pretty much true?

But THEN, there is a new version of this with a seagull movement. Is this the same case as the preferred version, but with a different movement?

Can someone tell me who Ken is?

Is the KW V6F still the darling of the day?

Is the seagull alternative 28,800 or lower beat?

Cheers!
