how is the bezel now? still that loose? or tight? does it click properly?


It's pretty tight now, but not as tight as a gen, because it's still the same wire clip construction that they have been using on all existing versions of the DSSD. It clicks fine.

The real deal (and the new BP sub-cs) have 3 ball bearings and a click peg under the bezel that it turns on , and it's held down/inplace by the retaining ring.

On these, there is a little lip around the outside of the rehaut, a little click peg under there, and a wire that goes under the lip to hold the bezel in place. Once they are on (properly) they are damn near impossible to get off without bending the bezel assembly. You can see the construction in DarthAlex's excellent teardown thread - shows gen and rep construction. These new reps are built the same way bezel-wise as the one he disassembles there.

Let me rephrase my question (it was indeed a question and not an attempt to pick an argument),

What are the specific flaws of this
BP maker DSSD?

Lets focus on that and not how it compares to Noob or Trevor's V7.

...From what I can spot, bezel numeral thickness, SEL fitment, Misaligned Ring Lock text, and lume color.

P.S. I remember noticing on some posts by modders here and some time ago at an AD in person, that the Gen DSSD pearl is not as white as the rest of the markers, it looks to be more of a shade of Off white or Champagne than the pure white/faint blue of the markers.

Can anyone confirm?

Yes, I would say that on my gen, the pearl is very slightly off-white.

Still the new DSSD and Ceramic SUBs from BP Maker are the best around you can get at the moment, if you don't want to mod anything on them. Going to get one from Marvellous replica after the NCY, and will do my review :) :)

Looking forward to that review. :) I know MR has a special pressure testing service up to 5ATM. Does this mean he gets the HEV sealed up from the factory? Or has someone service it after picking it up from the factory? In any case, this will be an interesting review for sure.

Sorry, but what do you mean by "SEL fitment"?
