The color in the very first picture and the clear/sharp joint line between the red and blue of the insert are more indicative of v2 and not v2s.Showing my V2S Stock from Clean

All version of clean inserts have the blue and red blending into each other smoothly except for v2 where they join at clear-cut line.. more like VRF max bezel
Nevertheless it’s an amazing piece you haVe sir! Enjoy it

Anyone knows the price of the V3 bezel if I want to buy it separately. Somebody quoted 218$.
Did anyone ordered lately? Did it get any cheaper?

Parts only are always expensive. Might get the whole watch instead of only an insert..
Did you use the newly engineered Escape Wheel or the previous version for the Franken? Thx

IRL this should be a matter of subjective preference and standing alone both stuff look insane on the wrist.
SBS you can obviously notice some differences however all 3 bezels can fulfill the purpose depending on what you like, which shade is the closest to you.
I'm perfectly fine with the V1 booed by some, blue looks healthier in certain angles, kinda same with the red part, also the pt filling of the V1 is more pleasant to my eyes under some light conditions
All in all, there is no wrong choice, instead of pursuing the latest, newest batch pick the one you like the most

Couldn’t agree more with this - these bezel colours all look different IRL and with everything relating to aesthetics, personal preference is a HUGE factorFrom left to right: V1, Xing MK1, V3

This illustrates as well how Xing v5 is still really good and an alternative to the out-of-production clean v2/v2sFrom left to right: V1, Xing MK1 on the Met, V3

Comparison V3 vs V2. Me personally like the V3, since I like the darker bezel.
But now Im open to sell my v2

Good to see that the numbers are equally big.. I prefer the V2, more class. However, i might change my mind when seeing them both irlComparison V3 vs V2. Me personally like the V3, since I like the darker bezel.

Just received my V3 insert, one thing I notice compared to my V1 is that the platinum plating on the V3 is thicker/deeper so the number are not as recessed as the V1, they are almost flush with the surface ceramic, not quite but not as deep as the V1. I much prefer the colors of the V3 but wish the numbers were engraved deeper or a bit less platinum applied. I know some people have had issues with not enough platinum plating filling the numbers on other versions, but on the V3 version I have they may have slightly over compensated with too much platinum filling....
