I'm new so I don't really know the difference between those two.

Totally different models, the V5 is a 116610 modern Rolex with ceramic bezel, fat dot markers and blue lume/ rehaut engravings with a hefty, adjustable glide-lock clasp.
TC V6 is a 16610 classic Submariner with aluminium bezel, thin&elegant dot markers and green lume/ no engravings at all and with a light, gen-like, non-adjustable clasp (adjustable with extra tools).
Comfort: V5 is heavier and because it is adjustable possibly more comfortable
Quality & gen-like feel: Because of the better quality standards, movement and precision TC is incomparably better
Modded TC, normally it would have a Cyclops and a silver seconds hand
not a Noob V5 but the same watch-type for illustration purposes

Pretty crazy that they launched this just before CNY, I can imagine the order build up after the all the wait... I haven't done a comparison to the gen in photoshop yet, It might ruin the illusion. Or anybody wants me do a "side by side"?

Thank you so much for explaining the difference.

Quality versus price staindpoints, which has been addressed. For all intents and purposes to a noob they're nearly identical with small details.
Good side by side here FYI comparing the ceramic to prior.

IMO the only thing the Ceramic has going for it is the Superluminova and the bezel cutouts. That blocky case design and overall illusion of bigger size look really bugs me.
Agreed.
And yes. Absolutely.
There is a review (incl. insane pics) of the V5 next door...

I quess now the only real tell, for the average person to see that its a fake, is the cristal hight. Do you guys agree??
The silver fonts is too metallic like it's painted on with a sharpie. The gen has more of a white colored font but when titled at an angle, it shows the silver.
