Stuvetjee 17 Posted March 2, 2015 DW looks more sunken on this one... Deal breaker for me. Indeed. That's a big let down. It's very weird how that datewheel is so sunken. I've never seen any watch with a miyota movement that had this issue. But hey, miyota is a great movement and it's good to see more and more Patek reps comming out! I'm inclined to think it's just the lighting they used for the photo, I can see no reason whatsoever that it would have a sunken datewheel given the movement and the proportions of the watch!!! DC Indeed. PC and Trusty are very well knows for their horrible photo skills. Let's wait for some QC samples that they usually post after some orders. Their QC pics: https://imageshack.com/a/bOaz/1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've heard good things about the 9015, I'm waiting on my first rep from here, already shopping for my next What is going to be your first rep? A Cartier Roadster XL, recommended by my better half while I was looking at Patek. It seems uncommon so I'll be posting a review, as good as a noob can at least.
