The hands dial and insert look like they all match pretty well to me. Is it SSD v2 or BPSD case?
My wtb is for bpsd. He didn't state which case. I asked him to clarify. Those hands don't look green to you? And the dial markers white? I mean the first photo not showing lume

Yep, now I see what you mean about the hands being a little darker. Could be they are still a little more charged than the dial markers. It's hard to tell. My guess is that they will be fine although it might be worthwhile to ask for a better picture. I've not seen either a SSD, BP or TC hands that didn't match when left uncharged.

The reason I asked about the case is the rehaut on the 1st picture looked a little bit more like an SSD but the 2nd picture looks more correct for BP.

The hands do look green to me , but maybe they were charged a little bit ?

I'm sorry guys but that lume is off. Better pics would help but I'm not so confident on that one.

I asked the member a few questions to clarify. Is the bracelet tc? Is the insert stock or gen (he had listed insert as a tc part). He said "all is as stated, I have a review". I asked him to link me to the review or please answer my questions.

This is on a repgeek, the guy has 1000 posts and over 10 feedback. But doesn't seem right

I'm not calling him out either but on my phone, zooming in the charged lume is not the same color to my eyes.

When in doubt, don't buy, unless you're willing to put a new set of hands on it later.

Oh yeah. It's not even just about the hands. It's supposed to have a Swiss eta 2836-2.

I won't do business with someone who communicates poorly. And at the first sign of something fishy I walk away. Even if the "fishy" was an honest mistake. There will be other watches.

I just wanted your guys opinion because I've looked at a lot of franken sd, and that does not look like tc hands and dial to me

Aaron, I may have missed this earlier in the thread, but what's with the red second hand?

I do like the look.

Sorry that was a little selfish of me to ask you to sumarize. Looks amazing. This is exactly what I'd like to do. What happened with the Clarks tube?

Not sure...Adrian says it got damaged while doing his mod work. No big deal, the TC tube is fine. Good luck with yours....you did right to stay away from that one with green hands. Lol
