here it is, Tudor Pelagos LHD 'Left Hand Drive' Numbered Edition Rep

[IceBear454]

I get what you're talking about. But do take a look at my post here: https://forum.replica-watch.info/threads/tudor-pelagos-lhd-the-word-on-zf-v-v6f.375404/#post-3490004

The "puffiness" of the lume fill, IMO, should not be considered a definitive tell. Or a tell at all, really.

I see what you mean, but it's definitely noticeable because of the shadows.

Also, the printing is darker and not bold enough. (Logo + TUDOR GENEVE, check your own pic)

Big issue with lumes being above markers and not inside it.

Err...ehm...what?

 

[DocThor]

No matter what...it's a great rep and not a gen...there has to be a difference

I love my rep though...

About the concern on the lume. This is my ZF (don't know which version).

The supposed issue with lume color is not on the ZF.

Did anyone else purchase an XF/V6 that can share a lume pic?

really? That's an XF? When did you buy it? Every XF lume shot i've seen the color is different between bezel and dial when charged.

Bought it 2 month ago m2m over at RWG as an XF

@DocThor Are you absolutely positive it's not a ZF? You did buy it M2M and it would be easy enough for a seller to mistake. If it's an XF and you bought it two months ago, that means the seller bought the first batch. Pretty much every TD I contacted stated the lume was indeed mismatched on dial and bezel (blue and green) and people who purchased one have posted pics confirming. It's hard to tell in your pics but when looking at XF markers in natural light, they have that same vintage macchiato color as gen. ZF looks closer to white like some of your photos (but it could just be the lighting).

Can anyone else confirm if their XF LHD's have the same charged lume color on bezel and dial?

Well...to be honest...I can't be 100% sure if it's really a XF. I bought it beginning of June and the seller had it just a few days and it came directly from a TD bought as a XF.
Looking at the markers they are definitely not white but "macchiato" as you said...a very nice creamy vintage look. That was one of the reasons why I preferred the LHD over a normal Pelagos . Unfortunately I'm not able to catch it on a pic...
Is there any other way to confirm if it's either a XF or a ZF?

Well the thing is both XF and ZF have the vintaged creamy markers. The difference is that ZF is lighter in color (certainly not white but not as gen) while XF is much closer to gen in color.

@DocThor Actually, here may be a way to find out which version you have. Look at your markers and see if the filled in lume is puffy or not. See pics below from Puretime website...


ZF looks like this:





XF looks like this:

 

[DocThor]

From that I definitely have a XF
