It is not at all a question of laziness!
I am French and I did not find information with regard to(compared with) V7 in the corner French!
That is why I look for information on the English corner!
Unfortunately, certain persons do not write correctly and I cannot translate...

OK. Sorry
I get it now
And sorry too for my English, sure is one of more incomprehensible

Is it all clear now about V7 ?

V6 observation

I noticed that most of the HBB V6 models appear to have 4 markers in between the hours on the hour chrono, whereas all the gens I have seen appear to only have 3 markers. See the pics below to understand what I mean. It's a pretty easy "tell" though.

Looks like the only V6 evo's with the correct dials are the ones with CF i.e. Black Magic and SS/Cer.

Experts please help!

Below is the link for a brand new V6 BM w/ CF dial that has the same issue w/ the incorrect 6 o'clock subdial markings so it would appear the issue is now common in the CF dials & almost all V6 models.

Not sure how the V6 factory is missing this...However, it is a flaw that is very difficult for the the human eye to detect considering this V6 thread is 2 years old w/ hundreds of close-up photos w/ all kinds of nitpicking yet the flaw was just now noticed after thousands of posts....

It would appear there is no need to worry about the aforementioned issue w/ the 6 o'clock subdials. Apparently, there are Gen Big Bang models that have 4 sticks in between the numbers on the 6 o'clock subdial.

Here is your proof..a gorgeous BM II Gen w/ the same subdials as the V6s in question...looks liks this is NOT a flaw & nothing to worry about

Iincomprehensible this gen dial because the correct is four spaces and three marks. Because we are dealing with four hours of interval
Thanks again

Great find blue04! Thanks for clearing that up, I wonder if this is unique to the evo BM only? The variation in gen HBB's is incredible!

Thank God I got the the BM II I guess. 1 less flaw to worry about. Good stuff blue04 to call that out. I hope when the next suppa duppa best 1:1 HBB comes out, V6.5, V8 or whatever they wish to call it, they'll fix the bezel teeth too. Keep the top coat of the stupid blue AR off the watch, It'll save you some money. Why go outta your way to make it less accurate? These people are not blind, just makes me wonder more and more.
