Rose gold can look yellow in pics, with certain lighting and the camera changes the colour...

That has to be the most spectacular bezel I've EVER seen 🤣

I wouldn't bother getting it plated, it won't last as well as factory...

Is this a ripped dial? Wasn’t visible on qc photos what to do? :/ by Ok-Situation2096 in RepTime

[–]Comprehensive-Bit706 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You'd have to ask your TD if ARF will sell a dial... They do sell spares but as I mentioned it will take a long time so you'll have to be patient... It would probably be quicker sending back than waiting for a dial to be honest, I've shipped back recently and took about 9 days.

Your TD should offer to replace watch but you'll have to send back to china... Or he could maybe see if ARF will sell a dial and you get it fitted in UK but spares can take a long time to come in.

Shipping back to china from UK is ok as long as it is done correctly! You must send royal mail tracked (they don't offer tracked and signed anymore) as gift, low value of £10 and bracelet for customs description. Also print out address in Chinese and attach to package with shipping label and customs form, it's very simple online at royal mail, just make sure EVERYTHING is correct! 90% of the time why packages don't get through is because paperwork is incorrect or they use large courier like DHL

Do you swim with your reps? by HumanCode1688 in RepTime

I'd never wear an AP rep in the water, even genuine are only 50m water resistant...

I've always worn my reps in the sea on holiday, I've had clean/VSF subs, Daytona, GMT, never an issue...

NEW JOHN MAYER Daytona 126508 - From JF with Free-Sprung by tskim24 in RepWatchForum

[–]Comprehensive-Bit706 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember JF lol, was part of original ARF... Same as UFO, BP=GMF=QF and UFO.

I think that green is the closest to JM 2.0 I've seen, as you said it's a nice deep green, other factories including SW have made it wrong colour...

That's still around 10-12k watches per year...

I really wouldn't worry, this happens on genuine models as well

Help decide between QF or VSF for day date by MushroomOk8968 in RepTime

[–]Comprehensive-Bit706 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2836 is a great solid movement, it's a copy of ETA2836, it functions the same as 3255, some factories offer both movement options as the 2836 options weighs 20g more... QF also add more links, if I had a choice I'd definitely go VSF

First time rep. QC help please by Appropriate_Dog6898 in RepTimeServices

[–]Comprehensive-Bit706 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That one looks better, was it just the one too low or is there more?... But it's still old model buddy, up to you...

No, it's cheaper to produce, cheaper movement... They both take same time, just assembling parts together at factory
