That's with the crown open. There are pics with the crown screwed in and it looks okay. The lume is fucked however.

How is the lume fucked? And the video shows the tube was screwed in. Although I've seen other people claiming that the tube looks alright from QC pics.

So they technically fucked up the crown gap spacing in this batch?

Like I said earlier, looks more like a BB Black rushed out in a smaller form but lacking attention to detail

The lume colour on the hands doesn't match the lume colour on the dial markers.

I thought that but it looks OK in some pics

It is noticeable looking close up but at arms length you don't see it but I understand as I am usually very picky about flaws.

Great value for money. If you compare with mine, the dial should be more textured and the bezel less textured, but really for the money, who would complain ?

 Exactly :thumbsup:

I think you really need to think about what a gen goes for (how hard it is to get) and that this is a replica. 

It feels really nice on the wrist and those things don't bother me as I can't see them from arms distance really :D

Damn I just ordered one with Trusty, I'm definitely not accepting that lume - it's totally different color. How is that acceptable

How can you not accept if that’s the flaw?

Mate wearing it at night is not the problem - it's the day time I'm worried about. The hands are different colour from the indices

Think you need to wait for v3 or v4 or lower your expectations.

How is it unreasonable to expect the hand and the indices to have the same color? ZF has managed to do it with all the other Tudor Black Bay since v1

It´s not unreasonable but you will surely get your QC pics and just say no...but don´t expect them to be able to source you one with the same color on the hands and indices as they do come from the same factory.

Just keep calm and wait for the updated version.

You realise we are talking about reps here, right? That some kids are putting together in some basement somewhere in China who constantly try to please us with our demands.
