Quick summary. I bought a 571 KW back in the fall. Seagull movement.
I have noticed a change in the bezel in the new 571 I recently bought in May with a A7750 movement. Thinner bezel on the new version which makes the crystal stick out too far. Pictures as the following:

on the left is the old bezel in the right the new bezel.

KW is all out of Wack right now. Buyer beware of the change.

Thanks.

Thank You for showing this. Had me worried for a bit.
Have one coming tomorrow or Sat. from M@M over at RG. KW of course. But has the thicker bezel.

Been wanting to try a 47mm Sub to see how I might like it compared to the Gen Sub I have in 44mm.

According to this Gen 305 the bezel looks very close to the newer 571 bezel.

And why we arrived at the V6 Rolly Submariner.........?
Or , why we are at the Diver AP V7 or V8.......?

Until it come out more and more "perfect models" , the Factories will guarantee big sales..... ;)

Well, I received the 571 KW V6 today, and it kinda seems to fall exactly in between these two. I love the beefier look! true to Gen or not. Love It!:punk:

[Quote = Knifemaker; 2844323] Bueno, he recibido el V6 de 571 KW de hoy, y que poco parece caer exactamente entre estos dos. Me encanta el aspecto más robusto! fiel a Gen o no. ¡Me encanta! Cuchillo [/ quote]:punk:

The TD will provide you with what they have, it depends on stocks. But you should have gotten pictures so you can refer to this thread and see what you will get.

Tks. TD told me is the ultimate version from KW so I expect an improved rep....

I need to seek the expertise of the members here. I had recieved the QC pics today. I am puzzled why the hardcopy printout of the timegraph info does not tally. The amp and the rate including the time of timegraph taken does not tally! I have written to them asking why. Waiting for their reply. Also, would you guys be able to see if this watch is ok?

I would first ask why the time does not tally. The time of the print out is 10:16:39. The timegrapher shows 14:26:30, too far for either 10AM or 10PM.
