So you've got the QC images or your brand new best replica, like, ever, with that incabloc you always dreamed of, as swiss as cheese, but what about your timegrapher results? What dahell are those? Presets Beat Number Frequency, the vibration of a movement. The number of balance wheel swings per hour or how many times the watch ticks per hour. This is a preset, depends on the watch you order. 14,400 bph = 4 beats per second 18,000 bph = 5 beats per second 21,600 bph = 6 beats per second 28,800 bph = 8 beats per second etc Lift Angle The angle the balance passes through while interacting with the pallet fork. Important to be set correctly in order to calculate the Amplitude. This preset is per caliber specs. Most modern watches have a lift angle of 50 - 52 degrees. Generally lift angles range from 44 to 58 degrees. Some other settings are present, for instance Gen co-axials angle is 30 degrees. Results Rate How fast / slow the movement runs (in seconds per day) great : +/- 5 s/d acceptable : +/- 12 s/d If higher / lower? It is possible to adjust this yourself or ask your dealer to nudge it a bit. Amplitude The measure of the amount of rotation in the swing of the balance wheel, in either direction. Amplitude is higher when a watch is lying flat and usually falls when the watch is in a vertical position, due to increased friction. Amplitude can also fall as the watch winds down and the mainspring delivers less power. Amplitude is a good indicator of the movements health and if is too high or too low, or that changes too much in different positions, can indicate a problem with the movement. great : 270-310 acceptable : 250-270 If higher / lower? Ask for a different watch or have your watch serviced Beat Error The amount of time by which the duration of swing differs from one side to the other in the oscillation of a balance wheel. Generally speaking to get a beat error of zero, the roller jewel in the pallet fork must be perfectly centered. great : 0.0-0.5 ms acceptable : 0.6-1 ms If higher? Ask for a different watch or have your watch serviced. * Please note that if you are reading your QC from the dealer, you will generally receive only the results of the watch lying flat. All the above recommended measurements are from that position. The measurements in other positions may vary

Ziggified Rolex Air King...NO It's not for sale...

Well they just had all the factory seizures, and they are probably now on holiday becuase of the Feast of the ancestors until about April 6th. Some dealers posts say it might get better only in about 2 weeks But definetely don't pay anything until they have confirmed they can get it for you.

And knowing M for so long in RWG, I stand by him. Sent from my SGN

Food for thought: The Zigmeister can install the gen tube and uses a custom made bushing in doing so. That way the gen tube will screw in and out of the case just like a gen.

The MK XVI

Triarchy Denim for me ...but I am biased because it's my brand. I started it last year with my brother and sister. My brother is the designer. We are a premium brand, but very new and niche so not readily available, yet. Not on the cheaper end (retail is 200~ish), but we are manufactured in LA with Italian Denim for mens, Japanese for womens. The style is clean and dark. They look good with a T-shirt or dressed up with a jacket. They look great with every watch If anyone here is interested I can hook them up for a very good RWG price check them out @ www.triarchy.com ps: I also built the bike
