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. 1 hour ago, CurioLeo said: Proof enough of the correct spacing of the tube for you ?

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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Exactly 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

djcoulton 0 Posted January 8, 2019 Damn I just ordered one with Trusty, I'm definitely not accepting that lume - it's totally different color. How is that acceptable Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

djcoulton 0 Posted January 8, 2019 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

djcoulton 0 Posted January 8, 2019 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
