Yeah regardless, Trusty puts that price on new listings until pricing releases
Price got updated to $798.00.
Meaning $30 more than the listed V2 with Trusty, which should be just the difference for the new clasp rest untouched?

I know they has been some confusion about the V2 with the new clasp being listed as V3 at some TD and V4 at others. So this might be just a listing for the V3/V4 meaning V2 with new clasp?

The blue color of the moon phase disc might have been improved but we'd need actual QC pics to confirm that.

Chazing is having me send mine back to fix after my watch maker found metal in the movement. We'll see how it goes.

SW dial is getting an update. New SW dial is on left compared to Genuine on right. Looks like the date wheel printing is fixed which was probably the biggest pain point. Right now only thing we have is this video I screen capped from HB.


Is SW v2 the same as the HB dial that he was selling?

No, HB created his own dial. The date printing on his is very clean compared to this release which seems to still have wonky 2's in the 20 dates. I think it'll come down to pricing. His dial is currently 2700 CNY (about 320usd) so pretty expensive, where SW's dial are usually in the 200 range. For 200 I think I can live with the wonky 2's now that the print thickness is updated.

I have both (HB & SW V2) coming in a few weeks - I'll take some photos and do a comparison of them when they arrive.
Hoping to compare them to a gen as well.

Also want to add:

Printing is better on the HB, but the substrate is too thick / wide compared to gen (SW substrate is more gen-like). Both still have lume that is too thick (see the marker at 6). Both dials seem decent overall but both have issues - all about which you prefer.

Left HB, right SW.

Always thought the HB dial used the SW dial as a base but seeing as the substrate is different in size, I guess it is different after all

Getting some parts from Popup and asked about the new SW dial, he seems to think that this corrected date printing on the SW dial could be a batch version and not indicative of an actual "new" version. He was out of stock of the dials so we'll see what this brand new order looks like and if its corrected or not. Could be some HB shit YMMV
