Thanks mate. I love it. You don't see it on the forums much

If I'm not mistaken you're the first with that watch? I'm very tempted to buy one lol do you like the black or this one better?

Another new watch, another good, reliable but cheap miyota and again placed at a not wallet friendly 348usd price.

If this is not a trend I don't know how to call it

Not sure how your prizes are standardized, but 348usd for a good, reliable mechanical watch is not much in my book...

I think I prefer the black overall, but the blue is great around the pool at summer

Agree with you. Even if I joined the rep game only since 1yr, I observed some facts in relation on the price increase of latest reps.

One example is represented by the Omega LmPO. First version was sold in the 200$ area 3yrs ago. V3 was booked at 338$ but after few weeks was confirmed at 388$, with several flaws. Current V4 has been sold out at 398$ in few weeks

In my books a simple steel watch with a miyota is not worth 348usd

ordered the V6f V2 A2824 version from Ryan 2 weeks ago. He said it will be in stock after 10 days. I will wait and see

To my untrained eye the two items look identical - when saying "they do look different", how do they look different?

any one has thoughts on comparison to the real one ? The blue on the real one appears deeper/richer, thoughts ? can't believe there isn't more excitement

To clear things out: The gen 5167 is 40mm and never came out in blue, whereas the blue is the 5168 2017 novelty, measuring 42mm.
@Nivka is your blue a 40 or 42?

I'm thinking it's possible that the rep factories just changed the dial & strap colors for the 5167 instead of introducing a completely new watch.

As far as PF and TT are concerned, I expect their listings to be identical as they are "partners", "cousins", "brothers" or however you wanna call it.
