Received mine yesterday. Just beautiful. No issues. The Kevlar strap is nice in that they made it shorter than normal so no huge tail per trudging from the strap keepers. The buckle is a different color than the watch. The case has that reddish bronze hue while the buckle is brassy in appearance. No great problem but having the case and buckle match would improve the overall look of the combo.

I've heard anecdotally that the bezel construction is more comparable to the PAM389, which has considerably less play the v1 382 from ZF but have not seen the bezel construction in and of itself for the v2.

how is the bezel mechanism on this one?

better than the v1?

Yeah, Josh can fix it for you by sending it back to the factory. Rattles? That's terrible!

Its not overly loose but it wiggles up and down which makes it rattle a teeny bit. would be easier getting it fixed myself or in the UK if i can? Saves 2 weeks of shipping wait and another week at least of waiting for it

Be careful as there are lower quality versions that you should stay away from. Contact Supermirrors in the dealer section. Ask him for the latest version from Kuvarsit. It's the best version and very gen like. Strap it comes with is pretty good too. Sead, the owner of Supermirrors, is a great guy and he has very good prices. Ask him to send you QC photos along with watch movement and water resistance testing.

Got QC today, not pleased with v2. Bezel doesn't even appear brushed, CG brush pattern is WAY crooked, CG doesn't meet case very well on REG side or even close for that matter, dial at 12 still wonky.

I agree, I wouldn't accept that. Good luck on another try.
