I was wondering that too. Is the ZZF lume 100% match to gen?

I’ll know very shortly. Should be delivered tomorrow or Monday!
The lume looks very close actually so we will see.

Mine is an older crystal that I used with the blue tint so lec harder to see.

Pray tell... are the markers misaligned? My eyes tell me they are? or izzit an illusion due to the hands?

ZZ Factory 114060 3130 mvmt

An easier way to see this is turn your phone flat and sideways so your angle of view is very low. Like you are coming in for a landing on the 9 o'clock marker. Way low angle, so you can see the 3 and 9 in a row. Then switch your view to the 3 o'clock side.

Very easy at these angles to see the 3 o'clock marker is tilted anti-clockwise (left end low). I always check marker alignment this way whether I detect a flaw or not.

Rolex are just weird .they must have diffent companies making there xtals.and they change suppliers to the visable lec
xtals I guess.looking at your pics the lec is very clearly visible in your pics.just like my new xtals.
my old xtals was nearly impossible to see the lec unless in direct bright sun.or using a flashlight.anyway just something I noticed. It's a trend with rolex they constantly change stuff with there watches and parts

So how would the blue tint make it harder to see.the lec is on the xtal at 6.
I recently brought a couple gen xtals sealed .and installed one yesterday and that's when I immediately noticed the lec is visable to the naked eye on any lighting .even in the dark

As far as I know the blue tint ar cyclops c12’s are no longer made bud. They all have clear ar now. That’s what I mean’t.

Yeah I know
You can see mine in the image but it’s an older crystal so not sure how much more visible it is on the new one

ive done similar to my genuine 16710. Restored it fairly well with a few light brushes with a red scotch brite pad. It’s a known way to do it, so if you google around you should find more info.

Hey guys, apologies if this has already been answered but would an ETA movement fit this watch? And if so what would you guys recommend? I bought the model with the 3135 movement. I also plan to swap the bracelet from my ARF V2 onto this unit.

Cheers
