So my pelagos V6F from Sora arrived a few days ago!

I won't talk too much, I'll just let the pictures speak for themselves.

12 oclock and 10 oclock marker seems crooked?but thats just anal tbh

 

[storck92]

Yeah the 12 oclock marker is definately of, but the 10 oclock is nicely aligned

 

[bRONX]

nice i went for the ZF but either choice is great ! enjoy it !

 

[centrum]

Looks brilliantly good.

 

[storck92]

Thanks i will but unfortunately the titanium scratches unbelievably quick!

 

[bRONX]

yes it does ! doesnt matter if ZF or V6 mine is scratched up a lil bit too but what ya gonna do

 

[storck92]

Yeah but it's the same with the gen anyway!

 

[letterboxmind]

Is the pelagos really considered light? Would it be even lighter than a Rollie sub?

 

[storck92]

Yes it is really light! I don't have a Rollie submariner but a Daytona and this is A LOT lighter. Titanium is unbelievably light compared to Stainless Steel, however it scratches a lot easier.

The sheen that titanium has is created through oxidation, titanium "scratches" easier because the scratch is more noticeable. It actually probably doesn't scratch any easier but since the layer of oxidation is scratched through the scratches are more noticeable. Over time the area that has been scratched should oxidize again and the shallow/superficial scratches will slowly blend back into the rest of the metal.

Congrats good choice the V6 I have one too but mine does not have that little white box on the opposite of the crown side probably because it's a first generation rep. BTW what is this small white box I've seen it also on a gen in an AD shop window? is it a sticker or is it painted on??

Is this true with all latest versions of the Pelagos??

 

[storck92]

Is this true with all latest versions of the Pelagos??

I think it depends from watch to watch!

Is the bracelet really titanium, or stainless steel? Looks good brother.

I have tried the gen and compared to my old SSD and 16610 franken, it's miles ahead and so light!
