Hi mates,

really could need some help to point out the accurate version from my 616 VSF Carbotech.

Here are some photos, thanks in advance!

Ahhhh, I see. Yes, that makes perfect sense.

Perhaps
mysterio can offer his opinion, he's the guy who would know.

Hehehe great, thank you! In most cases I know it 100% myself, but in this case I start to get unsure lool. Anyway, thx and maybe mysterio can bring some light in :)

Actually the light has something to do with identification. :D It's a V2. V1 only has two-striped Carbotech. V2 has three-striped Carbotech. V3, allegedly has three-striped Carbotech and a flat subdial. The previous 2 versions have shiny subdials due to the concentric circles which reflect light. Here's an example of a PAM616 with a flat subdial.

Thank you for helping out. I was 100% sure it is v3. Because I only found photos where all look 1:1 the same with my watch. Intime advertised his VSF v3 with same dial as my watch (circular sub dial).
Puretime also...

I am still confused!


You can see it here:

i have one.

biggest flaws are only 2 layers on the case and the gold indices on the bezel are too faint and the wrong shade of gold.

Ahh, ok I see, you have updated your previous post. The sub dial has on all versions circular design!?
