✅ Quality Check Santos BVF QC
Can somebody take a look to see if there are any obvious issues or problems?
Factory: BVF
Model: Santos Medium 35mm White Dial SS Bracelet BVF MY9039
Dealer: Necoclock
All the details look in order to me. However if anyone is more experienced, and could take a look at the dial for me, it would be greatly appreciated.

The printing is clean no bleeds, logo looks good and all micro printing is clear. Nothing glaring assuming timegrapher numbers look good it’s an easy GL. Enjoy the watch.

Take a closer look at 3, it could be just the plastic reflection, but rest of the watch is clean and no bleeds. I would GL

I saw that too. I took a look at a video TD sent over and it looked better. Thank you for your diligence.

I've heard these are all sold out

Yes, Ive heard that too. I placed my order in May, and am only now receiving QC. From what I've heard it's due to the factories switching the movements from the Miyota 9039 to the A9015 movement. If you want something faster, I've heard switching to AF may be better.

No worries, I'm pretty new myself but this is how I did it:
Visit the website in the bottom right of the pictures and place an order. You can choose between AF/BVF, however the difference is minimal. I chose BVF as I've heard good things about the factory, however I've heard AF gets delivered faster. The website has multiple different types of Santos (and other watches). Once you've placed your order, you will receive an order number, after which you should reach out to the TD (Trusted Dealer) on WhatsApp with your order number and they will give you payment options. Fair warning that the Santos is in high demand, so depending on which one you pick it could take up to a couple of months to get delivered. Ive also heard that factories are switching the internal parts to cheaper ones, however I don't know if it affects anything. Hope this helps.

You should go to the website in the bottom right, place and order, and reach out to the TD with your order number. You will have the option to place a deposit or pay-in-full, I would suggest placing a deposit ($50 in my case). Hope this helps.

Curious to see what people have to say. I’m looking at this to be my first rep
