I agree. I wish I’d kept my mk1 but greed got the better of me!

Beautiful!!

The 126710BLRO Mk1 is now seen as the most desirable Pepsi and fetches a highest resale value. Those vibrant colors are incredible. Especially that cherry red.

Just finished going through this entire thread. What a read. Firstly thanks to @StreetFighter, @KJ2020 and many members for their knowledge.

Just a small rant from someone having spent hours and hours reading through post by post: why is it on every single thread there are members who get so butthurt and take it personally when flaws are pointed out? Isn't it LITERALLY the point of these forums to share info? No one gives a crap whether you can 'live with it'! Let's establish the flaws and let people make up their own mind.
The number of times people got ridiculed for making factual statements was ridiculous. At the end of the day, we all benefit when Clean come up with updates addressing the 'meaningless' flaws. And the petty arguments that spawn from this, the whole thread could've been 30 pages tops with the useful info taking off the crap, not over 180!

Sorry rant over. Now my question is, regarding the flaw with the first link on the Jubilee bracelet. Since it got pointed out way back in V1, it was never mentioned again. Does anyone know whether this was addressed or improved? As it's quite an obvious tell....

Not to my knowledge, but honestly the insert color will be a bigger tell than the bracelet's issue for anyone who knows what the gen looks like
Good point. These two things, esp the insert colour is the reason I'm holding back, it's such a big feature of this watch...

If anyone has the unofficial V2 jubilee bracelet, it would be appreciated to post a side-on shot showing whether the protruding link is still the same or improved?

This is an old pic next to my gen BLNR. Not a great angle but it’s the only one I have handy on my phone. I can take more when I get home. I guess you can’t really tell from this angle though haha.

Thanks. Yes indeed a picture from the side showing whether the bracelet is flush with the lugs or rises above would be useful

Definitely agree that the Bezel color is off. In certain low lighting settings, it comes close to Gen Bezel, but 90% of the time, the color doesnt match gen especially under lighting.

I had a clean BLRO and was rocking it confidently until I tried the gen piece. I sold mine immediately lol
