Is there actually a DSSD v6s available with the 2836 movement?

I ordered one from Ryan - but he told me it was only available with the 3135.
I went for that one bearing in mind that at some point I might have to go for a Yuki movement.
Best regards

I'm reading the post sat here thinking I can get the (V7V2) with the 2836 movement and Raddave says he can't tell the difference, so I shouldn't be able to. I need to order one soon as I'm getting impatient lol!

Yeah the funny thing is the V1 was actually released before the gen, so no one really knew what it looked like !!

The V2 was a mad scramble to make it more real...

Little bit of trivia about the Eurotimez DSSD : Keep in mind i wrote this in 2013, so things have changed...

"Yes, this was "it" back in the day, the Eurotimez DSSD v5. IMO the best DSSD rep ever made.
To the best of my knowledge, Chris from Eurotimez, had contracted his own assemblers to make these for him and was distributed by Eurotimez.com, so i guess Eurotimez was the "maker".

From what i understand, there was a time when alot of his QC people were missing and they ended up shipping a lot of bad dssds, bad dials, bad pearls, and bad clasps.

The QC problems became overwhelming, i guess, and Eurotimez just faded off into the darkness. Some claim he still owed people money/watches, and just vanished.


After the Eurotimez's demise, the v7 DSSD was released, bearing striking resemblance to the ETv5. Had the thin hour marker rims, flat top triangle, but the bezel insert was not quite as nice as the ET version.
This is the one with the "Trevor" bezel insert.

This v7 DSSD was introduced in 2011, from "unknown maker" , but was actually made by the 42PO factory. "

Noob 2014 V1 is the most accurate DSSD with MK 1 dial and the font color on the bezel is indeed whitish/beige as compared with a gen that I've seen previously. The current V6S on MK II dial is also the most accurate, including D-Blue one.
