I chose buff hands over sw. sw is a bit more white , but thats not gen like. Gen hands is greenish hub. It supposed to be unmatched.
Sw second hand is shorter then buff which also not gen like.

The left one is THE BEST VVS V1 . I have kept one too. This is the best ever made dial , in real life its perfect in everyway, pictures can show how good it is.
Vvs and sw is the same factory, i got confirmation from a trusted dealer in China. Yes it’s good but it didn’t fit in (the hole is too small) and mine was a little bend on the dial (right at the marker 10 mins and under the name to the right) so I returned and swapped for the Buff v3

Hmm Buff V1 looks almost too light and too sunbursty there, like a stock 3KF dial but not as bad.

Here's another pic of the V3 w/ 3KF hands and date. Just approved my 2nd QC of Buff hands and date (first date disc had smudges). Was told the 3KF 5811 was open for orders so I'm waiting back to hear if I can get just the butterfly clasp. Pretty happy with the size of the 5711 and my Buff parts so I have no plans to order the 5811, however that new clasp would make it perfect even though I'm not in between link sizes on the 5711.

So this sw dial lying in the hand is the latest batch? Seems this has a little less sunburst (which I like more) than the first batch installed in your watch, right?
Seems also having a light green hue and looking more gen like than the first sw batch.
How is your opinion sw latest batch compared to vvs v1?

As i mention sw doesnt have crazy sunblast like the old buff. Its very good and color keep chaning in different light.
Nothing can come close to vvs v1 . But sw is good enough and best choice for now. Just forget about buff v3 lol

I went ahead and neutralized the white balance in Ac1013's images as they are too overly green. 5711 dial needs a hint of green but not THAT much green.

A Chinese modder informed me that the latest VVS is different from the latest SW dial and is being produced more slowly. Do you think it's true?

A QC pic of my approved latest SW dial. I'll compare it with my Buff v3 once I receive it.

You are a lucky man bro. I believe that could be the best VVS V1 . I am not 100% confirm but I highly think it could be it.

Thanks for your comment. I hope I'll receive that dial whose QC pic I posted. 😂 What are the key points which distinguish VVS v1 from later VVS and SW renditions, especially inspecting the dials in person?

V1 dial plate is more 3D . Sw and v2 is a bit more flat . The outter ring of the dial is different cutting too . Due to the more 3D , it pop the dial a bit more and make the color reflection a bit better . Vvs v1 does a bit more green hub then sw v2

these new dial are really really nice.
without judging if these are close or not to gen, but for me in term of finish , color richness... they are on paar with gen..
Incredible the level reached by these producer nowadays...
