I’ve got my hands on the new BUG factory NTTD. Overall impressions are good but it definitely has its flaws.

Pros: case shape, full Ti, nice full set with canvas pouch and tools, nato is nicely made.

Cons: 12-3-6-9 markers don’t match well with the rest, the lume is almost not existent in the dark, the bracelet I have on my example has some uneven meshing, the bracelet also is not all that comfortable (something I struggle to find comfort in with these), dial is a bit shiny like the vs+.
The 12-3-6-9 markers mismatch is quite a flaw in there.

Bracelet slightly shittier than BUG, but better than others.
Don't understand why is always the back side of the titanium bracelet better than front (mesh pattern isn't "damaged" as the front).

Can anyone compare the lume on the BUG and VS+ to the VSF? I’m curious to see if it’s any better.

I spotted another factory update today from BUG (never heard of them?), with a claimed titanium bracelet. Wrong end link shape by the case on the band, so maybe that's enough to put people off, and not sure about the pearl dot... but the hands don't look pinky

What do we think chaps?

Broken clasp on the gen which recently just happened on someone. Titanium can be so brittle. Broke off clean. And this is a gen. So do be careful with the more recent reps with the titanium mesh bracelet.

Hmmmm... That's rather unfortunate... VS+ got the marker's size right, but even on the photos from Hont further up it's apparent that the markers and hands have different shades. Unless they fix this, I'll stick with the shitty lume on my VSF V4. 😆

It’s really such a travesty. It must be separate factories for the hands and dials that the rep factories use, hence the issue matching color. Really crap though, as I’ve had a few reps that are perfectly matched on the hands and dial in fauxtina, no idea why they can’t get the nttd right.

If you were to buy a NTTD today, would you still get the V4 VSF? or the VS+
