About orange numbers:
- first of all photos are not like in real life
- in direct sunshine they reflect enough light to look like shiny
- in artificial light the look like half-matte
- in normal light, a bit dim - they’re matte

To me rep orange numerals can be semitransparent plastic, matte surface, with reflecting foil on the back - but it works just great.

Received mine today. Also my first rep - 42mm. As others have said it is a litte heavy but overall I am well pleased with it.
Thinking about an orange strap for it.

This is my old 42mm.

Do you guys think it's a good size or would it be better to go for the 45?

Stick with the 42mm. It fits you just right.

Yeah, I think you're right. I just went through some pics from my old phone and found one of the 45mm V6F on my wrist..now I remember why I sold it the same day ;) I'm cured, 42mm it is :)

Anyone here waiting on new stock of the 42mm and had any updates from their TD’s?

Placed order with Ryan (Intime) last week for the 42 and 45mm. Received 45mm QC pics on 9/13, they said the 42mm will be available in 10 days, hoping that timeline's accurate.

Sorry this isn't a better quality image, but low light hand held iphone shots are not the best. Wanted to post an image of the LUM for my 42mm.

Please bomb us with more pictures!! Really want mine to come : ) Two questions, is the dial grainy, and the bezel matt Grey?

Thank you!

The watch looks different under different lighting conditions. If I take a picture with a flash, the dial has a grainy textured appearance, and then when I turn the flash off, it looks like a very smooth black dial. This is of course do due the AR coating on the crystal, which at times looks like its not even there.

The bezel is a matte dark Grey, not quit black, at least on my watch, and to my 50 year old eyes :)

Sead tells me that they're actually out of stock and doesn't know when exactly they'll be available again.
