ARF vs Rich Factory Starbucks MK2.
Note: ARF has a generic lume pip from aliexp. The original fell off and i could not find it.
ARF has also been used for 3 months.
Rich has better crystal and clearer cyclops with no hint of blue.
Bezel action on Rich is way better. Feels like a friend's gen SD43. ARF is way to loose.
Winding is smoother on rich with it's JH movement
Weight on the watches without bracelet attached was 75g on ARF and 76g on Rich.
Good morning gentlemen, wanted to get some insight from anyone who has purchased from Julia over at watch seed before. Does she usually send her pictures in a link format. If so what do we think of the pictures thank you for any feedback provided.
What’s up RCTP Family!
Gold Factory, a free-sprung movement, is beautiful. I own a few of these JH32XX movements, and I’ve been incredibly satisfied with them so far.
If you have any reservations, I encourage you to let them go!
Have a great Thursday!
1.MK2 bezel:
The color of the green bezel is “gold green”. RF can achieve 99% similarity to the original.
For users whose genuine bezel (including ceramic insert) is damaged, our part can be used as a replacement.
2.Dial:
For users whose genuine dial is damaged, RF dial can be directly installed as a replacement.
The reason is that the outer edge of the dial is CNC-machined with a cut, which allows compatibility with genuine watches.
The pattern and details on the back of the dial are identical to the original. RF does not provide further explanation on other details.
3.Hands:
The luminous part is recessed, the edges of the metal parts are chamfered, and the sides have a polished finish.
4.Crown:
Under magnification, the area around the crown logo on the original is uneven, while RF is smooth.
5.Crystal:
The magnifier coating color matches the original version and is highly transparent.
Strong products speak for themselves. Everything is in the details. Feedback from watch enthusiasts is welcome.
only 10 pieces can be choose
First time buyer from Ethan. I reached out him from April for my DJ41 with deepcrystal and just got the watch yesterday.
It is truly impossible to describe the feeling I had when I received the watch. It is absolutely magnificent even though my wrist is quite small and I spent hours gazing at it without looking away
After purchasing from Ethan. I found him to be very friendly and professional, he responded to messages extremely quickly. He seems like one of the easiest sellers I've ever dealt with (provided, of course, that you are a serious buyer). I was pleasantly surprised when I received the package, as he had packed it with great care.
Put together a buying guide comparing the four movements that come up most in mod builds. Here's the TL;DR:
NH35A — 21,600 bph · +10/-15 s/day · $28–50 · Best for: beginners
Miyota 9015 — 28,800 bph · +/-10 s/day · $55–90 · Best for: intermediate builds
ETA 2824-2 — 28,800 bph · +/-4–12 s/day · $130–220 · Best for: premium/collector
Sellita SW200 — 28,800 bph · +/-5–12 s/day · $90–145 · Best for: Swiss quality without the ETA premium
All four have hacking and hand-winding. The jump from NH35 to Miyota 9015 is the most cost-effective accuracy upgrade. ETA vs Sellita is mostly a brand preference call — the movements are near-identical.

These new Blancpain ceramic Fifty Fathoms are going to be epic. I ordered all three from ORA, here is the first QC.
Let’s goooo!
I’m excited about this one. What does everyone think?
Finally got my first ever rep delivered. VSF DateJust 36mm Blue dial. So happy to finally have it in hand and see how great it actually looks after looking at pictures for hours on end. I’m beyond ecstatic. The whole process was a breeze with Ethan. He really made it so easy and I can’t praise him enough for how well he did throughout the whole process. Watch was delivered in a decent time frame as well compared to what I’ve heard from other people saying how long they had to wait. Watch was ordered May 3rd or 4th and arrived today on the 20th so not bad at all. Already have a silver dial on the way as well that I ordered 3-4 days after I ordered this one. Excited to get that one in cause these watches are stunning. If you’re debating on getting a watch just stop and PULL THE TRIGGER
From order to doorstep.. 15 days. Ora answered all of my annoying questions quickly and professionally. Highly recommend!! This thing is a beauty!
What on your wrist for Hump Day.
Hey everyone,
Got two Pepsi GMTs in hand today, so I thought I’d do a quick side-by-side QC comparison between the ARF and VSF . So let’s break down the key differences.
First thing I want to say is I am posting this reluctantly…I have waited about 4 days before posting this, hoping something good would happen.
Short Story: I have ordered from Steve before…zero problems. All good. I order from him because of the enhanced level of quality and customer service. Most recent order was for 2 watches…went through the quality process, green lighted both watches, then played the waiting game.
A shipping label was finally created with USPS. I previously shipped with FedEx but Steve is no longer recommending that. All good. Items actually shipped about two weeks later, with a tracking number…I tracked the shipment all the way to my town in the USA…all good. The day the item was out for delivery, I received a text message from USPS saying that the items was “underliverable due to an incomplete address.” I had verified the address with Steve prior to shipping.
Now comes the disconcerting part…I immediately texted Steve via WhatsApp and provided a screenshot of the text from USPS, asking Steve what should we do…no response. Radio silence…nothing. I have sent texts via WhatsApp for about 5 days now…zero response…nothing…no acknowledgment, nothing.
I’m now out around $1,100 and I had also pre-paid GoldJaws to plate one of the watches for me (that’s on me). But Steve…where are you? No one has even had the courtesy to respond to me in any way, shape or form.
I’m posting for two reasons…First, does anyone have any advice on anything that can be done here? Or am I just cooked? Second, since it has been a week at this point with zero response, I sorta felt compelled to let others know about my experience.
I’ll happily take any questions anyone has or any advice anyone has.
Many thanks.
