I bought the v6f automatic for my wife and she loves it, quality seiko auto movement is reliable and the finish on the watch is excellent

Could you say from which TD did you bought it? because on the different websitee characteristics are not the same. so I'm a little bit scared

Sead told me he didn't know about the tw version but that the v6f was the best and nobody has ever been unhappy about it. Lol take that fir what it's worth.

I ordered v6f and got this.

The engravings on the back don't match any of the versions posted on the tds sites. So it's impossible to say exactly which version it is. I can say though that based on these qc photos, and comparing to the gen, this replica is incredible.

Btw it's a opaline silver guioche dial. Some people expect it to be white because the td calls it a textured white dial. It's not supposed to be white

why would expect this watch to be waterproof? no watch is waterproof and this one is only rated water resistance to 30 meters
Hi Maron !
Have bougth 2 Ballon Blue,33mm v6F and 42mm( for men),therefore I can only say,distance from the water,more is not to say. A clock which is not waterproof,you can only judge negative!
ciao,

@sawalke4 I posted a bit ago on TW and their meticulous process. I have both. There is no comparison.

Could you post a link to the thread you mention please? Also do you mind if I ask why the TW is better please? Looking to buy a 33mm textured / guilloché version (Seiko movement) and torn between the V6F and TW. To my untrained eye the crown on the TW looks closer to the gen, as it's more rounded but are the dials virtually identical? Both factories 33mm automatic dials appear slightly more yellow in comparison to their other sizes and quartz versions...or is that just me. I appreciate the guilloché dials aren't supposed to be white.
