Look wise, it is ok. I prefer the feel of the usual SMP. In Fact, I was happier when I received my Spectre V2 instead. Feels much solid and the movement winds buttery smooth.
Also mine came with some QC issues. The bezel has too much play, the crown is harder to screw in, the micro misalignment on the 12 markerswhich I see in QC can be seen IRL is not helping either. The usual rattling in VSF SMP is more pronounced in a titanium case. It rattles a lot.
I say it as it is. It looks good but I feel the QC could be better.
Don't take my word for it, there are many happy customers. But I'm just so sick of rejecting QC and dragging it any longer.

Amazing, enjoy it mate. I had one question, does the bezel has too much play?

Rep hobby is not about perfection they say. 3 out of 6 of my last purchase are good replicas without issues. It’s all luck and depends if your TD provides good honest QC service.

Mixed reviews? AFAIK, Only 2 members here have received the V2 thus far, myself included. Its probably too soon to judge. But I'd be surprised if a majority would be bad reviews. As for me, I have no complaints about the watch. Mine is perfectly fine. No play on the bezel. Crown screws in easily. No rattling noise whatsoever. I've been wearing it everyday since getting it last week. No issues whatsoever. Looks incredible. Almost a week of wear and I'm liking it more and more. It looks so good and I really love the tone of the watch. The brown it gives off looks good and the indices must be seen closely to be appreciated. The dial and bezel really pops under the light too. Overall it just looks incredible. I've been watching the gen video reviews and the overall look of the rep in terms of colours and details is very very close.
Can't wait to actually wear this watch when I go see the movie in November!

God dammm that rep is a thing of beauty! Hopefully I’ll have mine by the end of the week! 4px tracking says “shipment departed from airport of origin country” and that was on the 19th
for anyone else checking 4px tracking it is my understanding that it takes days to update sometimes
No. There is a likely chance they will not do a V3. It's just a wish list thing people here have; not something guaranteed nor with historical precedent that VSF will do a V3.

Mines 4px. arrived at sorting center on the 17th, last update. Have read some really crappy reviews about that shipping service. Was hoping to have it for my birthday next week. Darn!
Same issue here. I used to get express packages in 4-6 days. Now I’m waiting 4 days just to find out my parcel is still where it started 8 days ago and has been ‘measured’ ....cheers!!

So has anyone else received their v2? I’ve been loving [mention]imranbecks [/mention] images and review as the week has gone on. Then we have [mention]kryp29 [/mention] who is not wholly convinced it’s up there with the super reps due to quality issues.
I’m still slightly hesitant to go for it just now as I have a vsf v2 grey dial on the way also.
Someone please tempt me or dissuade me!

I find the regular SMP of great value at the price point. Other VSF Omega models with superclone movement Like the A8906 and A8400 are even better. Somewhat comparable to Rolex VR3135 clone movement but smoother winding. I’m most impressed with my Spectre V2.
This titanium NTTD is a good change from the norm, closed case back, full titanium case, bezel lume and great color combo which really pops out under the sun. Lightweight enough to make a daily beater.
However, close your eyes with one hands on the regular SMP300 and the other on the NTTD, both on NATO, One of it feels like a toy. It reminded me of Steinhart Ocean one titanium.
If you like the 007 franchise, the lightweight and feel of titanium, go for it.

I'm not impressed with 4px. My tracking shows my package left China TWICE, FOUR DAYS APART!

- 2020-04-18 21:19 Baiyun,Guangzhou,China / Depart from facility to service provider
i dont think there are any altneratives at the moment to be honest, EMS - not taking any packages, DHL - not taking any packages, FedEx - will cease it..unforuantely 4px is our only alternative.....
This is what I’ve had since the 19th with 4px

Maybe I missed something but the DHL website says they are still servicing China.
Dhl and fed ex are expensive internationally at the moment due to less flights to and from China.
TD Hand their parcels to a postal agent who ships the package using the safest option at the time.
Be patient guys
