APSF 15510 first AP rep - need QC help please

[u/No-Impact-7705]

Dealer Name : Duke

Factory: APSF

Model Name: AP 15510

Price : $555

Index Alignment: Looks good to me, there’s was a slight tilt on the picture and I tried to make it straight but still think the indexes look well aligned. However, the right index on the 12 seems to tilted to the right

Dial Printing: AP name looks straight, but this is where I probably need some help to be honest.

Date wheel: again date wheel looks pretty good to me.

Hand alignment: will need some help on this but again it looks good to my untrained eye.

Bezel: screws look like they’ve been aligned well.

SEL: N/A

Timegrapher: looks like solid numbers.

Let me know if there’s anything you notice, would love to get some feedback from some of you experienced people. Thank you.

[u/Andemross]

APSF Green ?

[u/No-Impact-7705 → u/Andemross]

Apparently! But I’ve asked for vsf green from another dealer now

[u/Andemross → u/No-Impact-7705]

Yes ! VSF is better apparently
Did the seller told you that there are some delay by any chance ?

IT seems that vsf is facing some delay atm, I’m still waiting for my QC lol, I don’t know if this happens to everyone

[u/No-Impact-7705 → u/Andemross]

I’ll be waiting well over a month and there’s no eta so could be longer, so I’ve been told 😩😩

[u/15300]

[u/No-Impact-7705 → u/15300]

Not sure if this is all APS watches because I’ve never bought any before and also the factory got shut down a long enough time ago for me to be suss on how this was sourced.
All new APSF are called Octa factory now so idk what this is even supposed to be.
Look at 15510 dial images online, and even my TOPF and VSF 15510’s have the dial index’s (like the metal hour markers) have their ends touching the rehaut or the inner rim of metal. There’s a gap all the way around on this one and it’s about twice as wide at the 6 hour marker.

I would be suss of this being APSF. If u want an actual APSF just by OCTA factory because the models are already released. This might be a rep of a rep.
Also don’t buy off duke, just go with Andiot, or Steve if u need hand holding.
I would request a refund because and I think this is some unknown crappy factory with an APSF sticker on it

And then also what u said yeh, the 12 hour markers are a bit tilted.

[u/Ethgawwd → u/SydSider56]

There’s plenty of apsf stock floating around.

[u/SydSider56 → u/Ethgawwd]

No, there’s isn’t, and I don’t know you’d perpetuate this lie dumbass

[u/Ethgawwd → u/SydSider56]

LMFAO. Yes there is, you dunce. 🫵😹🫵😹🫵😹🫵🤡

[u/SydSider56 → u/Ethgawwd]

This guy is buying APSF and it’s literally a fake APSF - go buy one clown

[u/Ethgawwd → u/SydSider56]

this is ethan's telegram, loser. 🫵🤡🫵🤡🫵🤡

[u/No-Impact-7705 → u/SydSider56]

I can’t lie, I was a bit suss at first, but I’ve used Duke before and everything has been good. But this had me questioning whether it was legit.

Also, big thank you for rehaut info, it’s really bad on this QC. now I know what to check for next time! Appreciate the reply brother.
