Xepa 0 Posted March 2, 2019 Guys I've been waiting for weeks on QC pics for two watches. One is out of stock and factory can't confirm when they'll be available (great) and the QC I got of the other one is CRAP. I previously had an ARF 116500LN which was amazing but I decided I'd rather have the older style so I sold it and ordered a black dial 116520. What the fuck is this crown about? [Mod edit: QC pics not allowed here] Logo looks like it needs to go on a diet and it has the triplock symbol from a white gold model??? ARF should know better. After all the time I waited for this? It's a small detail but it makes me wonder about how the rest was put together because this crown does not belong to this watch. The rest looks ok but I am fucking pissed off and expected better from them. [Mod edit: QC pics not allowed here] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

deju 1,873 Posted March 2, 2019 OP lost me bitching about the trip lock crown..... that is on every gen 116520 on Chrono24 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The dots on a stainless model should all be identical, also the shape of the logo was wrong. Apparently ARF have been known to have bad QC at times. Hopefully the next one they get will be better! If not I'll have to just live with it. Edited March 2, 2019 by Xepa Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deju 1,873 Posted March 2, 2019 If someone can call out the crown flaw on your ARF QC, you’ve already been called out for; The fact your chrono doesn’t work after 59seconds. The fact your subdials have different pinions for the faux dials. Not to mention the watch sounds like a gritty bastard on your wrist. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
black263 228 Posted March 2, 2019 You can only complain if the crown on your QC pic is different to that on the sale pic. Even if it's a million miles from gen, if it matches the sale picture it's passed QC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's not a concern and it would never happen anyway. It's for my own personal enjoyment, I like the way the crown looks and this is just wrong. The one on my previous ARF daytona was beautiful and this just looks crap. I'm aware of the other flaws and I'm not bothered about them because they're not noticeable to me, whereas this certainly is. 8 minutes ago, black263 said: You can only complain if the crown on your QC pic is different to that on the sale pic.

The crown on the site is different and correct as per gen, this is not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Glaude 1,615 Posted March 2, 2019 Ok you couldn't post QC pic here and for some reason you weren't aware of that, but tell me, what do you think you could have achieved by posting that here ? It's not like we have any power on that or even any other suggestions than "reject it then" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GingerApple 7,285 Posted March 2, 2019 Why do we all jump on people these days!!?! Ok, so OP posted QC pics when he shouldn't have (OP, do it in the Shoutybox, you get away with it there ), but his frustration sounds legit and he's helping those who might buy an ARF to know to look out for the wrong Crown. Come on peeps, let's be a bit more touchy feely! Cunts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
