Guys,
Both, v1 and v2 have the same SEL - female SEL meaning the connecting segments go into the SEL.
This is a diference versus 2012 bracelet and its male SEL (connecting segments sticking out of the SEL)
The easiest way to tell the "v" of the bracelet is;
i. check the width of the polished elements (v1 has wider)
ii. check the width of the central section (v2 is wider)
The first batch of VSF was clear - v1 head and v1 bracelet,
The latest batch is clear too - v2 head and v2 bracelet, this is the most gen like rep, it is absolutely fvcking accurate.
Somewhere in the middle, VSF had released a transitional (lol) batch - v2 head but v1 bracelet. Something what we should call v 1.5


I've been staring at this comparison for way too long and still can't seem to tell the difference on my QC still if I have the V1 or V2 bracelet that I ordered from puretime. I get that V2 should be wider, but I still can't tell between the two. I'm also concerned that the bezel is off even after asking them to recenter it as well as the 3 o'clock marker not being aligned (could also be due to it being off a click but 9 o'clock is accurate).

What do you guys think of the date alignment and 12 marker on this?

Just want to bump my post since it seemed like it got buried. I checked the comparison that k4jun gave back in this thread previously but am still unsure about my QC. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

The mystery of the misaligned markers solved.Strodda is working on mine now, and from what he can see the whole reason behind the majority of the misaligned 3 and 9 markers is that the whole dial is misprinted - the dial is not even. It is just luck of the draw to find one that “looks” even.
