Would you say its better then the PF braclet?

I don’t know. I know that new MK bracelet is much-much-much better and way more flexible than their old bracelet. They knew about issues with their old bracelet and it was one of their goals to make it as gen in feeling and flexibility as possible.

New MK v5 bracelet is not stiff at all. I’ve confirmed this with my TD a few weeks ago before people jumped on conclusion how bad it is.

This is great info :)

I ordered one, the only thing i'm worried about though is the general hue of the dial. From all of the gens i've looked at this dial just looks a bit too saturated to me but none of the qc pics iv'e seen have had light on the dial so it's just looked dark.

I’d still back the PF with date wheel mod over this. Despite being terribly constructed the case/bracelet is well made and wraps like gen, also doesn’t seem to have lume problems as prominent as this but I’m curious to see how it looks on wrist!

I am comparing the Asian review videos of the mk v5 and pf and looking at pictures of them on the wrist and the curvature of the bracelet.

Check this out, this is my current U1 version that used to have a stiff bracelet. This is how it now sits after my mods





What do you guys think of it? Did I crack the code?

Logixa nice QC pics dude thanks for sharing !! I think you’re right about the lume greenish base. Nice to see a few more people getting their MKF V5s through now too. Congrats. Look forward to seeing it sitting on the wrist soon !

Doesn’t the PF have lume colour issues between the hands and dial markers?

Only prominent on the white dial - there’s 4 versions of gen blue dial Nautilus, I believe the PF resembles the 3rd with slightly green lume

Ahh really, I thought Mech had a PF v2 blue with mismatched lume between Dial and hands.

Anyway so far this MKF looks alright. I’ve just ordered mine.
