here's a collage of my V2 (left), gen mk2 and gen mk3 (thanks to @purplehaze89)
for me V2 looks like a mix of mk2's blue and mk3's red. Platinum fill def closer to mk2.

You can't compare like that. V2 were photographed in one light, gen were photographed in a completely different light. The shades of the bezel color will already be differenthere's a collage of my V2 (left), gen mk2 and gen mk3 (thanks to @purplehaze89)

You're absolutely right. And still, this is what we're doing in this thread over and over again. lol

Hello. I have a V1 clean Pepsi with GEN hands, DW and Crystal.
I bought the V2 because I love the new color.
I took it to a watchmaker in Dubai so he can remove all the Gen parts from the V1 and put them on the V2. He said they do not fit.
He even said the size of the crystal is different from the V1 (Gen Crystal) and the V2 stock crystal. He said it there is a very small difference but it will not fit.
From my understanding both clean V1 and V2 are exactly the same except for the crystal.
I don’t trust this watchmaker.
Can some one advise me please?
Thank you.

I like the fact that when a user shares his new watch here, he's not reeeally sure what version he has recieved...
...And even if he does, were're not really sure about what that version means
I hope @CTime will shares the latest vX and vXs versions pics and let us know whatta h*ll is avail right now beacuse Im not gonna order until this version-shitstorm has settled down

you have to change watchmaker...only the DW will not fit the DD3285 movement
so which versions do i have? lol. the one on the right i got from hont in november, the one on the left i got from ctime in december.
i wish there was a hybrid of the two (is there?). i like the purple-ish blue of the one on the right, but obviously the deeper red of the one on the left.

I just did the thread but should probably post here...
All clean ones, appears I got the v3 which is slightly darker than V2

Get a photo of the L6V6 engraving on the rehaut. Might be the 'fake' clean with a 3186 movement.so which versions do i have? lol. the one on the right i got from hont in november, the one on the left i got from ctime in december.

There were some 'fake' cleans going around where it was Xing bezel installed on a DD3186 movement I think.
By the looks of the hideous platinum filled 6, that's Xing.
shit, it’s been almost a month sonce i got this from him, i hope he takes care of it. does the serial font look fake?
. hope hont takes care of this messon a side note, the fake clean seems to have better date magnification, but the date font is still too thick.

The colors on the bezel are fine as long as you get what you ask for and approve in QC. What would bother me most is the poor quality of the font filling.
@derjenigewelcher remember my post and your response? Below are classic examples of why sometimes you should not even trust your TDs and that you should always do your own homework before issuing GLs
Well mate these stickers can be bought on the market in sets. so this watch may be whatever it may be, but no CF. Thats the Reason we (and you) should buy at TDs place and not at wechat dealers for 30% less
I have ordered CF GMT Pepsi with V2 insert and oyster bracelet and my dealer has presented this interesting piece. The watch is turned to be a fake CF Pepsi (check movement pic below) but I say it is interesting because of the following reasons:
1- Correct CF bracelet code (1NQ)
2- Correct CF SN on Rehaut ends with L6V6
3- V2 insert which completely turns red under UV light!!
Thought to post my findings here so the community is aware!
The numbers on the insert on the blue side, have a darker shade similar to the Xing bezels. Where as the CF inserts do not show a darker shade on the blue side of the insert.
