Li has them at Jtime and sent me some QC pics from a previous buyer for examples.
Searching around the forum, everyone are touting how many inconsistencies there are and that they would wait for "V2".
Does anyone have an idea when V2 would be released, or has that already happened?

JTime doesn't have them listed on their site, but pure time does from November 3rd, 2018.

Thanks for any insight.

Why would you have a v2? there's no sources talking about a V2.

When I search around this forum, people mentions waiting until “V2” because of some issues.
unless they’re speaking of a different model than this.

Eatdirtfartdust buy the watch, don't hesitate. It's one of my favorites and on the wrist is damn near indistinguishable even the insert isn't worth swapping to gen as the colors are that close. For the price it's a hard watch to beat. People here love to do the 1000x magnification comparison to compare a 350 dollar watch to a 3-10k+ watch.

Alright man, you pushed me off the fence.
I’m allowing myself to keep a 5-watch collection and a Pepsi and a Tudor has to be in there. This will scratch two itches.
Thank you!

Promise you won't be disappointed. It's a true gem among reps.

I wish you luck on the 5 watch thing. Told myself once I fill one case I'm good in january, now I'm part way through the 3rd case.

I never understand the nitpicking with some of these reps.
I have a close friend who works at a Tudor AD, and as a sales assistant she has had some training with tudor.
she is aware I have gens as well as reps, and she asked to see my gmt pepsi tudor one day in store to see how easy it would be to tell.
I am by no means an expert, but I ended up having to point out the differences that I was aware of.
when I juggled the two around she was a little nervous, but as the gen had the tag on still, she was happy, but needless to say, most will struggle to spot the difference.
just my opinion, but my recent Bucherer acquisition seems even closer, as no date too call out, but have yet to handle a gen, but studying pictures of gen alongside the rep, I cannot see any obvious flaws.
I would be interested to know the flaws on the Bucherer from the more knowledgeable.

Just wondering if there would ever be a CHS version. I know rolex reps has CHS versions as new revisions released.

Im a huge Tudor fan, and have every Black bay there is or has been (apart from 39mm on just come out) and I have a problem with the original design of this watch, its something once seen cant be unseen

the minute hand on the GMT is a lot thinner than normal BB, and really don't like it..

Save your money and get this sort after classic (the Q Timex re edition) Love it
