Thank you for this side by side. This post has me convinced that I'll stick with my 3.5 and be smitten. I am completely satisfied with my 3.5 other than the bezel font. The font on the 4/4.1 is not nearly close enough for me to trade up and risk other issues I don't have with my 3.5.

+1000, good decision

the only way for the noob fac to get it correct is to get them to fill in the hole in the 0 completely and them have vac or goin chisel the excess off. I won't be upgrading this time or anytime after till they get it right. and yes I agree that anyone looking for the diver this is a good time to get the 4.1 but those who have the 3.5 it is not worth the upgrade imo.

it went from an instant tell from a low res picture to an ambiguous tell from a low res picture.

step in the right direction but not enough.

I think that if I've a 3.5 , I don't could buy this new version. Ok , the bezel number here's better , but not close to gen.
I've read many post about , and same questions or doubts for all update of all reps. It's impossible have a rep 1:1 to gen.
This is the first rule of this hobby....
So , even the next update of the Diver will be not 1:1 to gen.
So , enjoy our reps and don't break our mind is a good rule.

Cheers

LOL ...exceptional easy decision for me :D: have no Diver anymore - so i go for the V4 :woot:

:hehehe:

Me too.
I've bought from a friend member the 3.0 for the holidays to sea. Now I sell again to him the 3.0 and I've pre-ordered by Ryan the new 4.1 by Noobfactory.
But if mine was a 3.5 , no doubt , I could keep it.

Cheers

I sent my swiss v3.5 out for a full service not too long ago because it is a keeper for me, and now they release an updated version...I guess that is the love of the rep world.

Now, I've read this whole thread up to page 23 and I still couldn't decide if I should sell my 3.5 and go for a 4/4.1....until I saw GURU's post above, so I think I will stick with my 3.5 for now.

Call me crazy but without photos of the v3.5 and v4/v4.1 side by side I struggle to see any differences...maybe because I am not as OCD as other or maybe because I dont want to see any differences...

Quick photo I put together...my v3.5 on the far right.
Can someone point out the differences please?

I wouldn't sell your 3.5
As far as I understand the biggest obvious flaw of this watch is thinner numerals.
This new version (from pictures I see) has not addressed that issue in a worthwile manner, so I think you got a keeper with your swiss 3.5 for now!

[EDIT] Unless of course you wanna sell it to me for a good price!!:hehehe:

Yeah, I think I am going to sit tight with my v3.5
I am sure eventually they will get the numbers more gen like, I mean that is the ONLY part of the watch (visually) that is not 1:1, they have to get it right at some point....dont they?

Haha u may be one of the lucky ones.
For me it's clear as day the difference between yours and the 4.0/4.1

I am just going to ignore all of it on my 3.5. Going to hornback my diver and LALALALALALLALA. My fellow countrymen who are trying to scalp me can suck it :goat:

V4.1 look at the serial number too. If it start with N1xxx that's noob factory. And N0xxx is from new maker
