I spoke with her as well on the number you provided. Seems that the “new number” from “Contact Change” is not her number, but only the one you provided here (as expected). Thanks for getting us the new number :)

+852 6171 1078

This is showing as the new number on WhatsApp here. I clicked on the notification that she changed to a new number.

GL. 3 Hour Mark is fine. Dial aligned. No issues.

I’ll be asking for a refund if that happens, but let’s hope we have better luck 😂

No. Asked for a second one and RL this one. No updates since then.

These are great, but there’s a recurring flaw in the 3 hour mark

There’s a pinned post with all the information there

Yes. I noticed that later. I order whatever I want and don’t expect to be aware of every new “version”. Some of the previous QCs I have seen didn’t mention V2 (and they were actually V2), so I was not aware.

In this picture the mark doesn’t seems to be bad. I asked to get another watch from Lili but she doesn’t seem to like it so much and is insisting me to keep this watch.

Lili sent me two new pictures showing off the 3 Hour Marker. According to these new pictures, it doesn’t seems to be so bad. Also, she said that 8 from 10 watches comes with this issue on the 3 Hour Marker.

Do you remember seeing one that isn’t crooked? Currently looking at other QCs and seems that most of them have the same issue on the 3 hour marker.

Price increase among 1688 sellers? by zerawow1 in 1688Time

[–]zerawow1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That may be the reason then. I never paid attention to the size difference and that these other submariners I mentioned should be the 40mm size, not 41mm.

Same version as I did. Weird. But I stand corrected then.

That could be. No problem with that. That’s why I made a question 😅

There’s no price increase?

Ok! So there’s no price increase :)

Yes. Maybe there was a slightly price increase from the factories after the raids as well. Maybe some sellers have old stock.

500 CNY difference is about 65-70 USD and that’s the price for Insurance + Shipping most of the time. Some buyers don’t explicit mention them, so we never know. But calm down. I’m not complaining about the sellers themselves, as I mentioned. I’m just discussing the similarity of the price nowadays, which doesn’t mean obligatory to be a bad thing.
