I could be wrong, but Looks like it’s just not screwed down all the way.

I have an issue.. my qc pics arrived is it me or the the crown too big? It sticking out like a stick hahahahaha
It’s not screwed all the way in. Also it might be a good idea to avoid throwing multiple posts like that in quick succession. Might get your post count nuked lol

As others have said, it looks as though the crown just isn't screwed down. Which makes sense if they're winding the watch to check the PR or adjusting the time etc.

It's definitely a V2, the colour of the V1 dial is very different.

For reference for the fully screwed crown

I've just ordered one of these as well! Looked good on pics, can't wait to receive it:). The dial does look a bit purple but so do real pictures of a gen...
Please guys, don't compare render pics to real life pics. :ROFLMAO:

interesting, so not a version upgrade but difference in batch production

though anything more grey, more blue or more purple than the V1 is just inferior imo. Guess we need to wait till 2025 for V1 dial + V2 movement labeled as V3 lol

Every TD tries to sell, it's his business. As soon as PPF releases an update of the color of the dial or the moon phases disk it will be published everywhere with great relevance, it will never be the “gossip” of the TD that will change the story. I still haven't seen photos in full light with different colors between these two batches. The photos that were posted here are all the same.

If dial & moon phase disc fits, V2 owners can replace their dial & disc with V1's

I dont know why many memebers keep wanting to reinstall the v1 dial on the v2. The v1 dial is pretty incorrect. The whole cut out of the dial is super wrong. Look at the whole circle of the calendar and second hand cirlce. The cut out is totally off.

Because it looks way better.

You might be right - but to me, color of that dial is more important then those details.

For the dial color of course, though I think the "blue“ version of the v2 isn't bad actually.

I've compared dial colour between my QC pics and this video:
And they seem super close.
There are some big differences in the movement, but that's fair enough :)

People keep talking about an update in batch based on something they’ve heard from a TD. The color so far of the supposedly updated batch is exactly the same as my V2.
If there is an update in batch it will be released in a big stunt as a V3. PPF don’t do things quietly. Like PPF have done with the 5711 and so forth.

Imho comparing rep dial colors with pics of blue Nautilus gens are meaningless. If you like the color of your rep dial then you just enjoy it. Otherwise keep off the blue Nautilus reps.
