I ordered a clean panda v2 and just received the QC photos from Li, they still give me the v1, the crown and dial are the same. I’m asking another one if they have it.

To me the V1 is more defined and better crispy dial, the V2 isn't (for me) a upgrade at all.
the text daytona looks to orange, and the 4 lines below rolex looks like they're bleeding on the V2
i dont mint the blue tint on the V1, its per gen 2021, and everything (except the crown) is fine on V1.

Tijdwijzer - Thanks for the detailed pics and analysis. My take away is that both dials look good and it's really up to each person to decide what they prefer. I prefer v2.

I am currently talking about the issue with them, so i have not rejected the QC at the moment. So i can not post any pics at this moment when following the rules :D

Yes you can, ask other members if this is v1 or v2 and you are not sure

Ok, if so I will provide some pictures.

i would not even mind the dial but I’m a bit concerned by the crown.

I got QC photos, i told them this is not v2 and Li said this is v2. Gotta be kidding me. Very disappointed ????

Dial is v2 but crown v1 , many of them have hybrid like this, you can install gen crown without any mod if you want to accept

Your "V1" does not look like others we've seen. The first V1 releases had long subdial hands and offset print on the 9 o'clock subdial. There are a lot of hybrid combos coming out. It will be nice when they settle on a consistent set of parts.

So you think this is v2 dial? Still looks tin blue to me .If it is a dial v2 i think i will accept this v1.5 or switch to the BTF
