Don’t like it with Chronographs. Just ruins that beautiful continuous wave dial.
Same here! It's too busy for me. But overall, if you like chronographs, it's a great extension to the 3 hander. You see the same DNA to the Seamaster Diver 300M line.

Agreed Nashiey simple 3 hander (and possibly more so the no date) are most suited to the wave dial. Can't wait for delivery of mine.

Hi all, requesting some help. I know V2's been out a while and newer ones being bought all seem to be genuine V2 ( head and bracelet). Just got my QC pics from puretime and head seems fine especially with regards to alignment of indices etc but theres not a great view of the bracelet and initially I thought its definitely V2 but now i'm doubting myself. Could those with more knowhow please help confirm if its a V1 or V2 bracelet. I have read previous posts about width of centre link combined with width of polished sections but not 100% sure with QC sent. Many thanks in advance .

Can someone check the 12 markers on my qc, do you think the right hand one is a little bit up compering with the left one?

Check the printing on the dial between 8 and 9 o'clock.. in the first image printing defect is clear, in the second a bit less but this proves the defect..

Just looking at QC's again and didn't even notice 1st time but bezel and face alignment are out but not all of them? Is that possible?
Going off pearl/triangle alignment with 12 marker I thought bezel just needed rotating again but this cannot be the case if some of the markers align already??

ive edited the 2 pics of the face and highlighted most obvious ( red - misalign, blue- aligned) . Further confusion is that the 20minute marker seems different in 2 different pics :facepalm:

any advice please --- should I request more QC's and do TD's do this? . I don't want to reject if ends up being something simple as a picture angle error...

It seems only the angle of the picture and the bezel a little bit turned counterclockwise.
I am thinking about buying one of these Seamaster too, and seems that a lot of them have dial misalignment.
Yours seems a good one, maybe they fixed this in the new production batches?
Other users may be of more help with their experience.

I don't think this proves anything at all. Shao you have 2 posts. You could be right , but it is much more likely that you just don't know what you are talking about and the dial happens to not be 100% straight on in front of the camera.

I think he's saying that the minute markets between 8 and 9 haven't printed properly - which they clearly haven't. He's saying the first photo is very clear, the second photo less so.

Is there a minimum post count before one can identify an obvious printing defect?
Maybe I have enough posts to see it, it’s nothing to do with the camera angle, the white link line between 8 and 9 is missing.
It’s a good spot.
