Yours has the wrong 6, are you sure it's v3?

 

[Gunner33]

Yes, 6 is correct

From Jan. 5th

Hi guys at post 1252 I asked more info about 6 font in rehaut to check real or fake clean gmt2.

Someone could please confirm me that the correct font is on first image?

So the V3 bazel on C+ was from clean, besides that any noticeable difference on the case, dial, and hands?

C+ have better rehaut, bezel lip, crystal and gasket with correct height. Maybe hands too.

According to @CTime Clean corrected the font in the newest batch of the cases (Y2L3).

There might still be some L6V6 with the wrong font that are used up.

So clean only has the movement going for it? C+ wins on all other things?

In my opinion yes, i like it straight OOTB. Both factories are good. But cant stand the crystal with wrong date mag and no lip.

Buy what you like, DD movements are insane.

Thanks for the help, I think I'll get one in the future, still don't know which one yet. I'll probably wait for the c+ v3 to come out first.

Big difference in colour between inside the office and outside in the sun.

Update:
Finally the new comparison of these versions! (Gen is MK3)
The light affected a lot in the pictures, it's really hard to capture the color, please take them as a reference.

Looks rather dark and brown in office light

 

[Mkempes]

Difficult to judge.

For me the V2's blue is closest to gen. Red sometimes V3 and sometimes V2.

Thanks so much Again @CTime for your contribution to the community!! Well done! This is what we’ve been waiting for.

My thoughts:

1. V2
2. V3
3. V3s

V2 seems to have the best red, V3 seems too darkish red and misses the pastel color a little. V2 ‘wins’ with blue as well. In the end it comes to personal preference. In my opinion, v2 looks the most like mk3 (in these pics).

I have the v2 and owned the gen mk3, kind of surprised how similar they are. The v2 is just WOW!!

V3 also good, either choice is a winner
