Is there any consensus on which maker has done the best release?
Thanks
I don't think anyone has the V6F in hand yet. I may be one of the first to get one, as InTime is holding my cash waiting for it to be released.

Yeah all td mention v6 redo their case and make it with Bracelet maybe end of Feb before Chinese New Year.

yeah the TD's basically said puretime's video of V6 smartlinks is just one off - they are probably accepting orders to know if the demand is there, before actually making the watches. Apparently there is currently only the leather strap version available - not sure how Puretime is getting theirs
Also TrustyTime has some real pictures of the watch with the bracelet, BUT they clearly say that's a pre order. They are re-doing the case to shave 1mm and make it thinner.

Good to know. I was under the impression that this watch was already available.
You guys should check it out - the one on the left is V6, the one on the right is KOR
https://v.qq.com/x/page/i0804wl57q5.html
TLDR:
1) KOR more gen like - the biggest flaws on V6 are:
- yellowish dial / sapphire
- the rim of the glass is VERY thick, preventing you from seeing the swiss-made from the front
- Automatic / date wheel on V6 slightly thin
2) The V6 9015 is less noisy compared to KOR
3) Thickenss on V6 is 9.5mm, and KOR is 9.3mm
For reference only.

Yes, I have V6F on braclet on pre-order. Hopefully these newly discovered flaws will be fixed for that.

Thanks for this. I was a little anxious thinking that I was too eager getting the KOR. Seeing the video, I'm now happy I didn't wait for the V6F. To me, the KOR looks better in every aspect.

Yeah this was the mega deal breaker for me, along with the yellow looking dial. Feels like a prototype that's not worth 300+ usd
Super junior member here but I also don't think the KOR is worth 450+ usd. Compared to alot of super reps out there there are still some major tells e.g. Bracelet, caseback engraving etc. That are easy to fix. In my opinion, it's freaking close and we can hopefully expect a ballon bleu level rep because essentially we've got the case right. V6 has done similar Cartier dials, date wheels, glass, crowns, Cartier engravings for ballon bleu before so honestly why the rookie mistakes?
I think it's about versioning up. Given that sales are likely to go full throttle in the next 2 weeks given Chinese new year in the 1st week of Feb, I wld expect there to be a quick v1. 5 or v2 hopefully soon.
But this is just my opinion.

I tried on the big size at the AD yesterday and I must say it fits perfect on my 6.5 inch wrist.
I also tried the mid size one and it looks too feminine in my opinion. Go for the big one guys.
