What flaws do you have on your 3.5 from the new 4.1. Bc I've seen some 3.5 with inner lume that's good that weren't relumed
Don't need it. Just wait till the watch is in your hands. You will forget all about this 4.1/4.0 bs. The 3.5 diver is a very nice watch and pictures don't do it justice at all. I've compared mine to gen in person and yes the bezel different stands out like hell but meh a rep is a rep. The 4.0/4.1 is thicker yes, but it still looks rep.
Just look at the bezel and the markers. The finish is two diff things. If one was to get all bent over bezel thickness. There's 8 screws screaming rep as well lol.

All I have to say is that this might be the first time I ever sold a watch before it was depreciated (and deprecated) due to a new version. I recently sold my unworn, low-beat Vac diver because I just didn't wear it. I got top dollar and all my money back. Normally, I'm the yutz who would have waited until TODAY to try to sell my modded V3.5... 
AND, just to tell you all that I am sick - I sold a great watch because I didn't really love it enough to wear it - and was happy to have the $950 back - and NOW, I'm looking at buying ANOTHER ONE !!!!!!! God damn it!!!!!!!!
Actually, I'll wait this one out. BUT, if I ever DO want an AP Diver again, it'll be a Vac modded 4.1 with low beat. Until ,of course, the next version comes out.....

I thought we were saying that if you already own the 3.5. Then stick with it. If you don't, then go with the upgrade. A bit like my iPhone 4 - I don't need the version 5. Ill wait it out till the 6 or whatever becomes a game-changer.

Whoops : ) Been reading this every day but still not sure whether the 4.0 or 4.1 is better. I'm thinking 4.1 as noob is tried and tested but the crown and crown guard and evenly applied lume seem like biggies to me. Leaning towards 4.1 at the moment though. Can't wait for a comparison
It's funny that in the past year of discussing the AP Diver 3.5 the only complaint I ever heard was about the lume, and maybe the cyclops AR still not being perfect. Now we're hearing about crowns, crown guards, and even hour hand lume thickness. Where were these complaints before? We are all insane.
I'm waiting for a side by side between the 4.0 and 4.1 as I still suspect the 4.0 is better in some areas. Noob factory obviously released the 4.1 as a stopgap and may release a 4.??? soon if someone proves the 4.0 is still better.

V4 has few supporters so far. I guess chanel will be forced to make a V5 to be able to sell it efficiently against the noob 4.1.
BTW I an waiting for a V4 but have not seen an QC pics I can approve yet and it has been more than a week now....
So what's the general consensus now.. in comparison to the v3.5 is this correct:
-V4 has better crown guard and better lume but overall brushed finish + finish of the dial + cyclops & crystal are all back steps
-v4.1 has better lume, everything else the same?
Am i missing anything?
So basically a whole lot of talk for no real progress..
Of course i am merely speculating, i'll admit i don't have the time to read through all these threads but this is the jist as i've seen?
