In the exile forum there was discussion re the v2 release of the VSF clone P.9000. I know its made its way into the PAM 498...has anyone heard any more news on the new movement making its way to other models? I'm debating pulling the trigger on a 351, but impatience may get the better of me before VSF throws the new movement in.

Rumor has it that VS is work'n on the V2 Pam616. Other than the movement, they carbotech will also be improved (will be 3 layers or more). Not sure it's true, but they will definitely upgrade other models that has the P9000 movement... It's just a matter of when they will be upgraded
v2 is already released on a Pam489 before Chinese New Year. a member here already got it
Pam616 has got the update too, got photos of it on Chinese sites. Pretty sure, our TDs will get them soon

PAM616 is out, and PAM389 will likely be the next w/ the V2 P9000 movement.

I was hoping pam382 to be one of the first 'old' models with the new movement. I think that due to the nature of bronze (patina), they are not making big batches like models made of steel or titanium.But that is only my thought...

You are right. There isn't the extra pin after the word 'eight'. It is v1.

VSF actually had 2 revisions of 616 and that's with the first P9000 clone movement. V2 basically offered 3 colours of carbontech. I would have thought they would call it V3 to avoid confusion.
I wonder if VSF is trying to clear its stock first by modding the V1 P9000 into this "V1.5" movement. It just doesn't make any sense that they already released the V2 P9000 w/ gen-like function and correct deco and still using the V1-look movement w/ the function fixed...
I caved....put the order in for the 351 with v1 movement (unless Im happily surprised with an unannounced v2). Ill either convince myself Im happy with v1, or Ill m2m in a few months and buy again.

I queried photos on TS website and I got two showing 616 with the new P9000 V2 so this is definitely happening

there was a refresh made by XF/V6F with the VSF clone movement in the earlier days, I guess that was not factored as a count in VSF's books. Thus, this as V2?
I would better wait until summer before ordering what is supposed to mount P9000V2 superclone movement. Otherwise you can end with an hybrid P9000v1.5. Let's be patient.
