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

[Kup1712]

Here are mine…seller also said that pepsi is V2s

Pepsi looks great, but I'm 99% sure that this is V2 insert.

The clean is the best that's for sure, now for the version v2 & v2s I'm not sure if any TD can know or guarantee what they will have on the watch.

Thank you. I asked a TD for a clean Pepsi and they mentioned they have a V3. Am I right in thinking that there are two things at play here?

V3 in this context is the movement/case/version from clean

And that the V3 watch would come with a bezel that is (confusingly) either a V2 or V2S?

Oyster=v2s
Jubilee=v2

Imo the difference is a bit the numerals and the tone of the blue altough the angle is slightly different. I tried to capture exact same light but its difficult. In real life i can see the slighy difference in bezel colors.

This is super helpful, thank you. Can you take some pics in direct and indirect sunlight?

The main difference should be under UV light. Can you show it?

 

[Trouble61]

I have to find an UV-light device or how do u call it. Its still very difficult to notice on pics but in real life you’ll notice it directly. Somehow there is a small difference and somehow very big, weird situation

And i will take some shots in direct daylight here are some with flash:

Indoor shadow light, i notice difference in bezel engravings here. Anyone also a keen eye?;

Thanks for photos. Are you able to do macro/ close up shot of platinum fill ?

I will mate. If anyone else wants different angles or detailed pics pls write here since im able to do it tomorrow maybe friday due to rush before holiday.

Thx for the pictures.

For me they look close to indistinguishable. Quality of platinum fill would be interesting though.

 

[Trouble61]

Tried my best, no macro lens unfortunately. Just zoom and focus.

Bezel looks good to my eyes

 

[mhrboy]

Thank you for your time spent on additional pics, if you find a UV light device it could be interesting to see the different inserts glowing under light

Thanks for the pics.

V2 and V2s practically identical. For me that settles it. Whichever one I have is good. No platinum issues on mine, very good engraving of the numbers. Set for life

Totally agree, the colors are so close now, that i really dont give a shit if its the one or the other BUT flaking or fading platinum is not something i can live with

Did they messed up the font for the "6" in the rehaut again? Well, anyhow barely notable and otherwise looks great, congrats.

V2 or V2S .... lol

 

[RollyAP]

V2S seems to be a deeper and darker blue, but I like the look of the platinum filling on the V2
