And how shiny are the sundials
IRL and the bezel have a “deeper engraved “ or just a little and printed ?

So what was improved? Doesn’t font look a bit thin on the bezel?

and what’s about the model number between the lugs is corrected in the v3 116520 with matching model number instead 116500?

They improved the subdials and messed the coronet and the bezel

I´ve got my clean v3 few weeks ago and can confirm that the bezel font is a bit thin, back sticker is Goku and ref. 116500 is between the lugs. I think they put that ref because they use the same case of the new 116500LN and instead of engraving 116520 they simply use the same. Regarding the bezel, the font does look thin and not very deep, but I fitted a genuine bezel so it wasn't an issue for me to be honest while buying. But overall out of the box is an amazing watch!
Oh no.........which TD did you use? I was hoping to get the 116520 ref engraving between the lugs.
I bought it from InTime. To be honest I don’t care about the engraving between the lugs, it’s not visible, unless I remove the bracelet (so technically never)

Exactly. This watch is amazing as it is. Im debating a gen bezel but I honestly don’t think it needs it.I bought it from InTime. To be honest I don’t care about the engraving between the lugs, it’s not visible, unless I remove the bracelet (so technically never)
Definitely! But after changing it to gen, you can tell the differences. I've added also gen dial, and it looks absolutely fabulous! But regardless, out of the box it's an amazing watch to enjoy!
Hi mate
This is correct but not exactly
Some big hole dial crowns are found at some 116520 dials
Regarding the 116500 it has only one crown, and unfortunately the big hole is wrong
Edit: i just saw is the 116520 thread
Yes mate you are correct

I'm also waiting for my clean 116520 V3 black dial, the only thing is the font of the lettering dial that in the gen are more thinned and the case that is branded 116500 and for this I would like to find someone who can rewrite 116520

I have received the V3 white dial and black dial.
The white dial is amazing and very good!
The black needs a gen dial.
And both need gen bezel since the bezel is flat and thin engravings.
But this is only “bad” thing I could find on these watches.
There awesome!
