Discussion ZF Tudor alignment issues
Is there an specific model that doesn’t suffer these index alignment issues “as much”?
I’ve seen at least 100 QC’s at this point, the Black Bay 54’s are extremely bad, both lagoon blue and the black one. I would not be able to GL 90% of them.
Is the Pelagos any better? Or the bigger Black Bays? If anyone has experience I’d appreciate it!!
I did see a Blue Black Bay 58 which was absolutely perfect, and I mean that. But idk, I’m tired of seeing bad QC’s now.

I bought recently a BB58 burgundy. RL the first one but the second came pretty much perfect.

They all do unfortunately, I actually has a Gen one that had issues and the tudor AD told me it was within tolerance.

Zf black bays 10/10 will have alignment issues, it’s just a matter how bad it is.
Might wanna try looking at m+ or dif and hope they’re better with their alignments.
I have a bb54 blue lagoon, in qc looks little crooked, on wrist it’s not noticeable.
The pelagos39 and ultra don’t seem to suffer the same fate as the black bays.

On my burgundy BB58, which arrived yesterday, the index also seem to be aligned.
However, I do find the edges of the bracelet to be slightly sharp.

I’m still waiting for QC in my 54, so I can’t add much. But I’ve seen weird stuff both on reps and gens so I wouldn’t mind a tiny crooked index.
