From these pics the bright portions of the sunburst look a bit too strong, like there's four distinct light/dark regions without much transition between them. May have overdone the sunburst similar to the DP AP dials. Other than that the color and printing all look great.

I got the new SW , which is the vvs v2. The dial color is very gen like and the sunblast is not too strong. Perfect color. The dial marker are thinner as gen , buff markers are fat not gen like.
Its the best one market now , unless you can get a used vvs v1 dial. Which stop producing already.

Interested in a comparison, too. Ordered the new Buff V3 dial because I found the light green/teal hue and the decent sunburst a little more gen like than the SW dial, but only sah pics so far. The gradients on the SW seem to be smaller than on the buff and thus seems to be more gen like, same for the markers that are smaller and more gen like.

I hope I'll receive the latest blue Buff dial this week and the latest SW in a month. Once I get both I'll take comparison pics and video of them including my Buff v1 and PPF v4.

Thank you very much for your effort sir!
A comparison not only between Buff V3 and SW but even with Buff V1 and PPF V4 would be great and very helpful to get a status to the currently most gen like dial!

I am on trip now. Can take some shoot later .
5711 dial i do not sugguest buff anymore.
For BLUE get SW NEW or VVS, for GREEN get ODM . I also got pics of ODM vs buff which can upload later.
Basically buff is crap compare to those two.
Also warning the NEW buff datewheel batch. Its bullshit. the new factory printed the numbers not aligned, i mean like double digit dates the same date number is not aligned. And not all date align center. Its wrost then the sw dw. Ecen tho sw datewheel have wrong background color
