Did you go for the blue or black? The blue posted above doesn't look quite right to me, but it could just be the photos aren't great. Would be keen to see the QC pics when you get them.

can you kindly explain in detail the difference between the gen and v3 batch? Really interested since start of 2019 but it's most probable I need to wait longer for a better batch ;(

Just received it. Looks great, feels great, but I feel the hands are the hour markers are slightly off in color? Unsure as I have difficulty telling colors.
Watch Quality: 8/10
Reasoning: Bracelet feels a bit lighter than expected, finishing on bracelet and strap could be better. Feels solid.
Accuracy to Rep: 8/10
Reasoning: I've been to an AD and they looked nearly identical, but the fact that the hour hand markers look slightly off..and the lume on the hands are different..have to dock for that. The "3D" effect for the Tudor logo doesn't look as "3D" as the gen does. SEL Gaps. The aluminium barrel seems to sit out maybe a touch .5mm? 1mm? out from the gen.
Overall Happiness: 8/10
Reasoning: Intime is a great dealer, they sent QC pics in less time than they told me (7-9 days) got them in 3. DHL was faster than usual and expected to have it in hand on Thursday, but got it Tuesday. Little disappointing as I was under the impression that the different colored lume hands was fixed, there would be more "3D" Tudor text.
Now on to the pics. I've included one from the AD I went to.

The color of the hands are slightly off versus the hr markers. You see how the hands are slightly more white versus the almost eggshell/marshmallow color of the hr markers?

Guys I have a Tudor Bb36 to offer. Bought it from M2M English Gent.
In my eyes an awesome watch in perfect quality.
was planned for my wife but unfortunately she doesn’t like it. I don’t understand that.
cheers from Germany

I am currently in the process of buying a blue v2 at a TD.
After i asked them if they can source a v3, they confirmed to me that there is only one new version.
Some sites refer to it as v2 some as v3.
The shots in this thread make me quite excited for my QC pics.

Thank you for this detailed write up. How is the winding in the movement?
I've had this watch on my list for the longest time but can't decide if I want to get the blue or black dial.
