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

[Temple]

@Temple: which mods do you plan?

I’m actually swapping out the dial for a Oascom meteorite and updating the crystal with gen along with swapping out the gasket for correct date mag.

Sorry to the Pepsi purists on this thread …I’m just on a bit of a meteorite binge at the moment

Postman just delivered my V3s. Whilst some of the pics I’ve seen and my QC did have a bit of a ‘Ferrari red’ look to it, I’d say it’s a deeper red IRL. Seems to change depending on lighting too which many have said on this thread already.

Sized and on my wrist for now but it’s then off to my watchmaker for mods!

Can you take shots in direct sunlight?

are you going 2.7mm gasket or just a gen gasket to match the gen xtal?

Only managed to get one shot in direct sunlight before the sun went down. Will do some more tomorrow

2.7mm Clark gasket. I have the gen gasket but prefer the better magnification.

looking forward to see before and after pics to compare xtal and magnification!

It definitely looks too bright compared to mk3 in these pics, but you’re saying it isn’t?

I obviously don’t have your mk3 in hand to compare, but all i said was that it wasn’t as ‘bright’ IRL as my QC pics had led me to believe.

How long ago did you order this GMT?! Andrew (Trusty Time) tells me that the watch is not available and will take time.
Where is the truth?

Looks much better here man, must have been the angle. The 6 just looked fat and squashed in your original photo.

I use Andrew (Trusty) often, he has always been reliable. Hont I have never used it, I have not feedback!
