I don't think yours looks worse than others we've seen posted here. It's not a great insert but we knew that.

Thanks Goon3r,

Handy information, I am new to all this so I would not want something that eventually stops working and becomes obsolete. And I do not have the knowledge and no how to mod or repair.

I'm after a Pepsi GMT which is go to go out of the box without changing all the parts.

This V9F looks promising tho I cannot confirm as I have not seen any QC photos.

jdoc77 have you got a link to the Pepsi you'd seen?

No QCs of the V9F Pepsi have been posted yet. The pic below is from the ad collage and if it's any indication the V9F Pepsi insert looks terrible.

Compare it to the Noob which also is flawed but still pretty good.

Looks like a couple of different models have just been released on PureTime.

Pepsi - https://puretimewatch.io/rlx2020052506.html

Batman - https://puretimewatch.io/rlx2020052507.html

Any of the more senior guys that are in the know - what's the main difference between these two that have just been released, and the one that was released about 2 weeks back - https://puretimewatch.io/gmt-master...4l-steel-v9f-1-1-best-edition-sa3285-chs.html

Looks like the one from 2 weeks back is 3285 Auto and the new ones just released are 3186.

Which is more reliable?

Both of these releases appear to be GMF, not V9F. This based on the clasp codes previously used by both factories.

GMF 126710 - 6MW
GMF 116710 - 5XZ

V9F 126710 - D1R
V9F 116710 - F7Z

It looks like GMF is now using the VR3185 movement, which is a good thing for everyone. VR>SH>SA

THe 3186 engravings are wrong on these models, they should have a fake engraving of 3285.

The Pepsi insert is garbage. Look at the 6 transition - white jagged glue line. Red color is not accurate, 18 transition is off, markers are thin. 1's are not accurate. Pass.

I don't think its v9f. They might be gmf bcz of their chubby crown guards.

Talk about garbage insert, look at the just accepted QC pics of my 126710BLNR from VRF. The fonts are decent but that 18 transition and bump in 6 is killing me. Anyways, this is a donor watch that I purchased for the movement and dial.

Compared to some of the other inserts I've seen the numbers on yours appear thicker, other's are too thin. Damn those transitions and speedbumps are pretty horrid though.

Interested to see the build you plan to use the watch for!

The V9F Pepsi will be worse

Ugh

Baffles me how v9 are such a unique factory in their usual business - replicating fairly high end watches with an outstanding attention to detail - then come and play in the rolex market all of a sudden and enter it like a damp squib
