Mine just arrived, so here are a couple of quick photos.

Very nice watch, the SEL is not bad on this one but think I will go for a TC bracelet, crown guard looks good as well.

The pearl on this is very nice, have a look at the photo below which shows it compared to a gen insert in my TC Sub.

Excuse the crappy iPhone pics, will take some better ones when I get a chance.

Your CG looks better than others in this thread!
Who did you get it from?

So CG and pearl have been updated?
Is there any flaws on this besides the bracelet and crystal?
Specifically what is wrong with the bracelet (SEL that's it?) and crystal?

Yeah basically the SEL could be a tighter fit, but it is much better than previous bracelets I have seen.

Not sure about the crystal, here's a quick photo.

Will get some decent photos taken later.

Managed to take a few more photos, slightly better than the last iPhone ones.

SEL fit is pretty decent, the bracelet is a 93250 model, which I think is incorrect for this watch, you could replace it with the TC version, although not 100 percent needed.

The dial on this is very nice, as is the pearl, it looks really good and almost as good as a gen insert, I reckon you would only notice the difference side by side as in my photo in the earlier post.

Case back looks pretty good.

Crown and crown guards look good as well.

Crystal looks decent.

Finally a lume shot taken on the iPhone, lume is really excellent.

Overall I would say this is a great out of the box rep as the other guys have mentioned :cheers:

Great post! Looks like a really great rep. Date wheel looks slightly left aligned.

How are the bezel clicks?

if there are some side by side comparison with gen SD, this must be the best selling product of this month

Wow these pictures are really tempting.
I had a previous version which didn't have the good CG so I flipped it.
This one with a new bracelet would probably be close enough to be a keeper for a long time.

Is it me or the pearl looks like the gen construction(glass lens with lume filled)?

The crystal looks better than the previous superlumed SD version, congrats!

It's definitely improved now matey - the first release was way too tall and chamfered. This new one is very close - impossible to call out on the wrist...

I can't decide whether to get TC's SD bracelet or not. The stock one mine came with had horrible SELs on both sides so I used an old spare I had. £40 shipped worth it?

the stock bracelet is crap.
TC bracelet is worth every penny. awesome clasp + it will improve SEL fit. the best 40 pounds you will ever spend.

I think the pearl is covered with a glass lens or something, it reflects light like the gen does from various angles.

Wow! Wow! Wow! Can't believe this didn't get more attention! BP hit it out of the park! Finally an SD we can buy that is near perfect to gen.
