Clean GMT-II Pepsi updated bezel insert V2/V2s review and comparison

[master_jag]

@WatchNoobie

I take it the v3s is on the watch ?

I always thought and from other members that the v3s is lighter RED color than the v3

 

[master_jag]

Ahh yeah that’s what I thought!

But the last v3s pics look great man, if only it was a tiny bit darker like the v3

So I think the red of the V3s is nicer in daylight.

@master_jag do you have the possibility to take a photo with the bezel under the sunlight to see the effect of the blue? thanks

beautiful. I meant the effect under sunlight to check if the v3s also had the purple effect of the blue. to clarify, like the photo in my post here. (post 2107)

Clean GMT-II Pepsi updated bezel insert V2/V2s review and comparison

I’m trying to buy one of these V3s but my TD is saying Clean are out of stock and there’s an issue with getting them… anyone heard similar or had a TD be able to source one for them recently? Thanks

Best quality dial for BLRO?

Hello all, I have Clean V3 BLRO and it’s stunning piece apart from the dial ”Rolex” print which looks faded compared to a gen I have. Since gen dial is very hard ( & expensive if found) I am looking for your knowledge which factory makes the best dials for 3285? I am planning to Frankenize the...

So it seems that the dial has changed or something. Thanks to these two members for bringing it to attention.

I bought up QC of various GMT models, mostly Clean and ARF, and compared alot of different variants, Sprite, Bruce Wayne, etc, and it seems universally they have the thinner print. Which leads me to believe a few things :

1) Clean and ARF and all share the same supplier for dials
2) The print variant changed sometime after the v2 batch, and now all v3 dials have this



But this is also why I advocate for members to buy if they like immediately - future batches and variants may not be the same as the first batches.

V2S left vs V3S right ( with clean sticker and plastic )
V2S dial is better than V3S dial IMO

I'd like to see a photo with a clear purple effect, if you have it. From the photos you posted I don't notice the peculiarity. thanks

 

[WenR]

There you go, mate
Direct sunlight

@WenR very good!!
photo n.3 expresses the exact prominence true purple of the blue. if you made one with the wrist angle to the left, maybe it would come out identical to mine. if you can't there's no problem. so, since you seem very expert, in your opinion my clean (if you look at my different photos posted in this 3d) has the bezel v3 or v3s? I bought it in march 2024.

The only real and sure way to know is, take a UV light and if it’s all bright red then it’s v3s

Im not an expert.
All i know is V3 n V3S will shown different result under direct sunlight because its not made with the same process, take a look at below picture.

V3 vs V3S (all red under UV light)

Thats what makes V3S the best genlike under all light situation IMO.
Agree with @WatchNoobie opinion, you will know its V3 or V3S under UV light.

 

[WenR]

And 1 more thing that i see,
V2 or V3 bezel color will gone a bit pale under sunlight, but V3S still shown a great contrast color, IMO.

Well thats what i saw when i hold v2,v2s,v3,v3s in my hand under sunlight. Other member maybe have other opinion.

oh good! i have a tanning lamp at home, i tried to put the watch under the light but nothing changes, neither the blue nor the red. The colors remain the same, like under a led bulb. maybe the glass filter stops the UVA ray? what can i do?
this is the lamp.
