The only three mods they'd need to make in a V2 would be a straight 12, neatly lumed markers, and a red seconds hand tip. Surely that's not asking for too much.

Can you find those improved in this album https://imgur.com/a/asymJ
Seconds hand looks orange there. But I wouldn't trust those pictures. I was going to say the lume looks very well done, until I saw the 11 o'clock marker was badly over spilled. Then I realized they are showing pictures of two different watches.
Look at the 11 markers

The 1 markers. I am guessing these are old stock photos.

My bad, ignore the first pic, it's the old V1, all others are the actual new batch, the chinese forum just made the comparison but I added in lol. The lume should be fixed.

Hi all

I ordered my LmPO from this new batch and thus I'm interested in undertanding if the issues present in previous batch has been solved or not

I would like to know if the SS bracelet is the same as CrPO, which it seems better than the one present in present in LmPO.

Do you know if the SS bracelets are the same in the gen version ? If the rep LmPO bracelet is (more or less) the same of the previous batch, do you deeem it is preferable to order a spare SS bracelet of the CrPO version and swap it ?

Many thanks from a newbie

I don't think you can order the noon crpo bracelet unless you own one which has a damage bracelet. But ordering the v6f is possible from as claimed by one of the fellow forum members. I think they need to address the water resistance of the watch too.

Why it is not possible to order a noob CrPO spare SS bracelet ? I'll start to surf the net just to understand if some TD sell one. Just to check
I do not understand also the point related to water resistance in relation to the SS bracelet. Why it should be tested in case of bracelet change / switch ?

No a gen LMPO has a crap bracelet too from what I read. The CrPO has screws and easy to re size. The LMPO has push pins and they are tight really tight. But with the right tools and a very gentle amount of pressure and patience it is doable without breaking the tools lol.

Now (probably) I understood. We are talking about two similar but different bracelets
I'll see when I receive the LmPO if the bracelet fits my wrist. After that I'll evaluate if purchase a spare CrPO one or not, even if this one is not specific for the LmPO

Thanks !

yes my CrPO bracelet fits my LMPO but I keep the LMPO on its original bracelet mainly.
