But Chazingtime has them (according to their site).

They all get them from the same place, the only reason Chazingtime doesn't have out of stock is because they haven't updated their site. Can guarantee if you order with them there won't be a v9 magically appearing because every dealer I've spoken to has said no sa3135 ln's are available currently

Been lurking for a while, doing a lot of reading, finally decided to buy my first sub. Went with the V9 LV from Ryan with an A2836. Just got QC pictures, I asked for a few different angles because my eyes aren't great. The color looks a little dark but the sel and the lugs seems okay to me, though I could be miles off. Maybe one of the experts can chime in on if InTime still has the "good batch" of V9's.

Can please someone with the knowledge pin down a list of what to check to be sure it’s really a “full” v9. Would be highly appreciated.

Others who have gotten their V9, how does the lume look? Mine looks more blue-green than blue (so weird because it doesnt show in pictures, it looks perfect blue)

Please post a picture with the lume.

smoke thank you! Could you please advise the main characteristics to look at. Thanks again!

If this is a real V9, then it confirms there are V9 cases with flush SEL-lug fit. That's unfortunate. Looks like Noob continues with the inconsistent QC. Personally, I would reject this watch for the SEL.

Thanks for the heads up, that explains why it looked a little different than other examples in the thread. I went ahead and approved it, as long as the lugs are good I don't super mind the sel not being 100%. Thanks to smoke too for confirming.

Got my v9 sa3135 yesterday. Not sure it’s worth the 750 aud I paid to be very honest.

Only problem is that when you unclip the bracelet it scratches the link. See photo.

Also when I’ve unscrewed the crown it was not very easy to get into gear to change date and time.

Anyone know how to manually wind the watch?

Is it the one next to the claps? Every one have it, it the most easy to get scratch due to open the bracelet

Honestly....after 24 hours with mine, I wouldn't recommend it....If you can, wait a few months until the bottleneck of new parts passes and you'll be sure everything you're getting is actually V9. If you can't wait, order a V7.

My LN just arrived (SA3135, paid 2 months ago) and, other than the bezel insert and crystal, I would 100x over prefer my old V7 and regret that I sold it. My latest gripe is that (I'm guessing) the factories actually manufacturing the parts don't have the equipment needed to work with 904L steel. My case and bracelet have sharp edges, burrs, etc. that just leave it feeling like a cheap DHgate rep. It looks great, but once you hold it, wear it, etc - you realize the finishing just inst on par with the last round of 316L reps.

I’m with you my case and bracelet also has very sharp edges. Also have a v9 sa3135.

Definitely looks okay from the distance but feels cheap if actually held it. If I knew I wouldn’t have bought it.
