I have been lurking in here for a long time and finally decided to move forward with a Pepsi. It’s on the way.

Yeah but silly defects such as wrong serial font on rehaut and STEEL IONX on clasp makes very easy to spot even when you franken them with gen parts.

I would call out the wrong rehaut serial font on the slopes at 40 mph 10/10x.

You won't regret it.I have been lurking in here for a long time and finally decided to move forward with a Pepsi. It’s on the way.
Just received mine today! Very happy but the xtal needs some work (not anti reflective enough and cyclops is slightly over magnified compared to a gen), also the serial font is wrong! Even with these two issues I’m very happy to rep the rep!

Who sold you that if I may ask?My V2S is on its merry way to me... hope I will dodge the flaky bezel insert bullet..
Mine has just arrived. To be honest: surprised by how good this insert looks! It’s dark outside, so tomorrow i’ll know for sure. The bracelet feels cheap and rough, however so did the one on my vtnr, but it’s silky smooth after a conditioner bath. So the pepsi gets the same treatment. Next step: tot Nikz for a gen xtal, polishing and some more.
Hi, what’s a conditioner bath? I’ve been told to soak the bracelet in baby oil!Mine has just arrived. To be honest: surprised by how good this insert looks!

Just shampoo-conditioner. Wrap the whole bracelet with it. Move it around and make a bath with extra conditioner. Soak it for half an hour. Silky smooth ;6
Thank you! Been doing this for years, the baby oil makes absolutely no sense, when you get the same result with conditioner/shampoo without the oil mess. (There is a bit of silicone in shampoo/conditioner, and it will lubricate a bracelet nicely)
