for me still the blue dial one! but the green one looks very slick. But I am curious about the strap, if its rattles a lot or nice and quiet...
On arrival the bracelet felt a little stiff but after soaking it in WD40 for maybe 30 minutes and giving it a good wash afterwards, it now looks and feels really high quality.
Couple weeks in, I have zero complaints about the watch. The accuracy of the movement on mine is great too, it's still within like 2-3 seconds of the time I set it on.
thanks for your feedback! I just received a Tag heuer rep this week and the strap isn't so good. The jiggling strap is **** me off haha. so it seems to be like an amazing watch with good movement

Love the green version......has somewhat of a AirKing vibe...
Very nice, love the green! I thought I was done with the white and blue/yellow hands but I just ordered this one.

nice mike! thanks for sharing. indeed it looks a bit purple, but i think thats because of the photo, not in real life
I wouldnt mind that picture, it’s a mixture of the lighting and image uploading service reducing the quality of the photo.
it looks very nice in hand, no hint of purple (like others have said).
I recommend to stay away from PureTime site for now if your'e interested in purchasing the blue dial version and contacting any other TD asking if they are able to provide the blue dial before placing the order.
Although the blue dial is on the website and i got charged for the watch after a week and a half of waiting for QC I was told that they are unable to provide the blue dial and don't know when they will be able to. I got a refund but the extra fees charged by the credit are gone.

Did you inquire about availability before you paid and ordered? Or did you just assume it was in stock and order from the website? The latter is well known to be the incorrect method of ordering

No, unfortunately I didn't directly asked about product's availability before placing a purchase. Following this thread I was pretty sure that a new watch that you guys buy here quit a lot will be avaiilbe. I did however asked the TD a question about water resistance testing mentioning the exact model which I wanted to order at which point it would have been nice to be informed that it isn't available in case the TD was aware of that at the time. That is exactly why I wrote my comment and recommended to check the availability before placing an order so people wouldn't make my mistake and lose time and money.

I ordered a blue dial from from Trusty and it took like three weeks for QC pics to arrive. Apparently stock was low....

Mine says hi!
I'd read nothing about this watch before I bought it, I hadn't seen this thread, but I had bought the vsf spectre and loved the quality, so when I saw this was a new release I thought I'd give it a go. Of my god! What a watch! The feel of this watch is awesome, reminds me of getting my ARF SD43 and how it feels so solid out of the box. Same with this. It feels real! Love it. Looks way better in real life too, the light dances of the dial.

I ordered the same one and just got my QC! Have this model already from V6F, which I’ll sell after I got this superior version. It’s an amazing watch, I’m curious about the difference!! Did you have any issues with QC? Something special to look for?

You're asking the wrong person mate, I have terrible eyes, but there's nothing special to look for as far as in aware; though there's talk of the occasional, dodgy logo in this thread. My QC was simple. I can't get over how well made it feels!

Looks great but I can't help but notice how weird that Omega logo looks. The right side of the logo is so oddly out of shape...
