So if i trust angus (i do) this is batch 2 and doesn t have thicker bezel font numbers it s just exposure of the pics that gives this effect… i believe him because we all know angus has a priviledge relation with noob and he would have it… now maybe noob Will make changes on this watch but for batch 3 or 4 if it sells well…

that looks like batch 1.date more central.sel gap.thin insert font.but if angus said this is second batch then it is.so the left date and sel is just bad qc.

Angus just replied to me, and said that they all have the same bezel font, i asked jen to hand pick and see if somes have thicker bezel font and said no... I just ordered 2 days ago, when they received batch 2 so yes it is batch 2 and it seems like it was just a light effect...

No, they won't, because otherwise they can't keep charging us for upgrades.

I thought Batch 1 was ok, good enough out the box. But Batch 2 is just SILLY!!!

I will not buy one unless they get it right.

Exactly my point, i think batch one was better, usually batch 2 is better.. But hey, this one isnt bad either, not too much SEL gap, dates are ok ( somes at least), and clearly the bezel has not changed, so it's ok, but my next sub c will be a good modded sub c, or i ll wait months for a real BP update, or real noob update...
Too me they didn't get it right yet, no rep is perfect, but there is still a lot of work to be done on this sub, compare to the bp sea dweller, or AP diver, theses reps are getting almost perfect!

MDR any gen owners i would say...

But if batch 2 have differents bezel fonts this is not right!! we pay the same price for the same batch and we don't get the same watch... WTF!
I mean, if this new bezel is an update, all watches should have this update!!

Maybe some one can chime in here. I saw the pics that this rumor is based on and it's not any thicker there is no new bezel.
