Did you get 3135 or 2836 ?

+1

It all depends if you want to Franken or not, and if you don't mind the crown turning the opposite way to gen.

If not, I think it's $100 well saved (if you can live without 904 steel that is *rolls eyes*)

Your was the only qc from ryan that I saw was not a v9

2836

 

[JDM180]

Is crown height the same now between the two movements?

 

[saxo]

Is the "V9" finally THE best sub ootb? Apparently recent releases from ARF and VRF can't match up and does not have such a good feedback like the new V9.

It's if this (marketed as new) "V8" is the same as the V9 apart from the steel . On both sites there is now a new V8 listed

From what I understand, no matter which steel, if the watch has a 3836 movement it is a V8. To be a V9 it must have both 904 steel and a SA3135 movement......I'm getting a headache.

Yeah but is this "new" V8 really a 316 steel V9 ? Arghhhh

Question of the crown height still there either way is the 2836 still lower crown position ?

 

[Waspy]

But to answer your question exactly, a V8 with a SA 3135 movement is the same watch as a V9 but with 316 steel.

There is definitely a 'wrong' crown position with a 2836. I just can't remember what it is.

According to the man himself (Smoke) the best sub is a V9 from Intime or Chazingtime. All you have to do then is fit an ARF insert and you have a winner (And an ARF sub with a V9 insert to get rid of)

No man, that's incorrect. A V8 has flush SELs and the wrong shape at the tip of the lug. If people want something that looks significantly different from a V7, they need the V9.

I need some advice guys....regarding the LV

Shall I wait for the SA3135 (it's not available yet for the LV) or jump to the A2836?


The other option is to go for the bk version with the ETA 2835-2

Ok fair enough.

Does anyone here ordered from Andrew and already received QCs?

Wrong

 

[michelesanctis]

Not a TD here, but TS have both movement versions listed on their website together with videos. I haven't had any issues with them and from payment to receipt of a watch (given no QC problems) was max 7 days.
