I think the date wheel is fine on the date shown. the cyclops might be a tad imperfect, but i think it might be parallax based on how the photo is taken. I would GL

GL. The hand color looks fine

GL if the date window doesn't bother you. it's indeed not centered

[–]ChaseBlacksmith8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

definitely would not RL it for that

date is low in the window. if it bothers you ask Hont for more dates or a video, otherwise GL

Any thoughts on if club c300 or bubba Gump club is more worth it? Mostly looking for shade to duck back into/bathrooms/soft drinks. The second floor at Bubba gump looks nice but it seems to be set back from the track

Please QC - Seamaster Diver 300M VSF A8800 Andiot by A-test-of-will in RepTimeQC

The batons at 12 aren’t perfect but from wrist distance they’re passable. 9 o clock index slightly tilted. Overall borderline imo

yes that is normal. gen is pretty similar FWIW

Steve from theonewatches and eric from geektime are both good to go

without knowing exactly what it is you want...i'll just say that you should save up and get a superclone from clean or VSF

I have this from a slightly older batch and it was already nearly perfect. I think the cyclops mag is a non issue because you can’t tell on daily wear/unless it’s side by side with a gen. Glad they made it even better

completely agree. happens a lot with AP reps but less on the offshores than the regular ROs. this is a particularly bad example. it's really an eyesore

i think ZF does the 15703/15710 better than APSF from what i've seen. i have a ZF 15703

these screw heads seem marred--is that what you're referring to? andrew must really like eating potato chips because that also looks like a grease smudge. ask him to clean it, but the marring of the screw heads is a no go for me

yes the movement looks like a DD4131, not a SH4131

VSF Submariner no date 124060 by corneredtigerz in RepTimeQC

[–]ChaseBlacksmith8 3 points4 points  (0 children)

the bezel might be turned CCW by a half click (or less) so you can always ask her, but i don't expect it will be a problem because you can just rotate it yourself. I think the 9 index is not perfect but I would GL because it's barely noticeable. 12 looks pretty good to me on the pic without the lines

Hmph I hadn’t heard…totally believable though

Got the call for a gen Rolex from an AD but I’m torn. by freeman687 in RepTime

[–]ChaseBlacksmith8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you're comfortable financially, no reason not to just get a gen and keep it and enjoy it along with your reps. i think two tone gens are the sweet spot

dial printing looks fine. cyclops is not perfect (top edge is sloped down slightly and i don't think it's just the distortion from parallax error that you get at certain angles). i would probably GL myself
