i think it looks like a v2 as the print is like on other v2. on v1 the print is different.

Anyway, they fixed lume on the latest batch so why accept a flawed version when a better one is available?

My 2 cents.

I don't think we've established that there is any change in the lume between v1 and V2. The only changes that I've seen are better bezel screws, less sunburst on the dial but non uniform tapisserie and at least on some (not sure whether it's the case for all) a less uniform "Audemars Piguet" probably due to the thicker tapisserie

Hmm, thought we've seen a few with better lume

Lume looks better imo, but we'll see in real life - should be here soon...

The markers sure looks more white than on v1!

Looks great, looking forward to see some pics under real light.

I wish that's true, but with the usual strong lights that are use on TDs QC pics I think it's too early to tell. Let's wait for folks to receive their watch and share their thoughts and real life pics

I don't mean to nag (well maybe a little) but v2 has for sure more correct white markers according to TDs websites.

I choose two TD here but the same result will show on Puretime and Trustytime as well.

V1 to the right and V2 to the left. These are from Intime and Chazingtime

Time will tell, I'm kinda confident that the lume is better.

Wich color is more gen like?
White (or "off-white" would be most correct) under normal to bright light condition. Of course green when it's dark due to green lume

The lume looks better than what we've seen lately, looking forward to see your pictures and your findings.
