Can the newly released XF V2 FC Diver 15706 be considered a super rep?

[vcappp]

are there any differences v3 vs v2 except for end links that you guys see?

Does anyone have an issue with a noisy rotor that makes a slight scraping sound when shaking the watch? I don’t know if I should ignore it or get the watch to watch smith to fix...

Sounds pretty normal for this watch.

Just needs a drop of oil on the rotor.

I mainly had/have this rotor noise on the Miyota 9015 Movement of my JF FC Diver. Does this rotor noise also happen with the Asian 2836 and the XF lowbeat Movement ([FONT=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]ETA 2846-2)[/FONT] as well? Would be great to know. Thanks.

I have the low beat 2846 no rotor noise whatsoever. runs like a kitten

Great to hear! I am pretty close in pulling the trigger on that kitten , but couldnt find a TD yet. I guess TT is the (only) way to go !?

 

[stanevo6]

I always use TT. But mind you, sadly he is no TD on RWI.

Yeah, I know - unfortunately. But thanks anyway!

 

[stanevo6]

The Boss will have his motivations. No thx and good luck. You will like the Diver

 

[J0n4s]

Yeah man!! This one looks stunning as hell. Great piece on the wrist! Gotta get one asap

Anyone know how to remove the Green color Ar coating? Is it
on the top of the crystal or inside ?

Inside and outside - best way to remove the tint is by adding a prof 1xAR or 2xAR crystal just according to your preferences while 1xAR is more gen like.

are those colorless ? Cos the cyclops are clearly blue tinted (and to be frank I don't see any green tint on XF xtal)


PS: Another XF v2 with stem issues passed in my hands...really the weakest part of this otherwise excellent product. TG it's small money..

As far as i know Prof crystals are colorlessly coated - but i could be wrong.

It depends on the lighting of your surrounding - i've noticed a tint while being indoors - outside both (15707/15706) are clear and there is no hue to the AR coating...

I have a prof 1x AR crystal and 2x AR cyclops on mine. The Cyclops does have a slight blue tint to it. The prof crystal 1x AR is colorless. When reflecting a light source, it reflects it as is. Versus the stock XF 2x AR crystal which has a greenish tint.

At the end, somebody knows if they change brushing style of the bezel in V3 ? And why ? if it was ok

 

[Scottymagic]

Here is my mates v3 so you can see the brushing style:

Many thanks Scott,

Today I received mine, and it's same of yours.

I wanted not brushing style. : (

But now, I think it is not is possible to get it.

Is there discoloration around the inner bezel closer to the crystal or is that just a reflection?
