Is Jtime the only one advertising and selling the V4 at the moment? I wouldn’t think so, but the reason why I’m asking is because my TD sent me their latest QC picture of this watch but it still looks like V3. I asked them about the V4 and they don’t seem to know too much about it and stresses the image they sent me is the latest model.

Sure im just telling what i saw on this pictures
what about this two pieces one have darker and shiny subdials while other have matte?
my friend have 116500 and must compare side by side with it irl
With your ability to take clear, high resolution photos, you should just compare and photograph your friends Gen 116500 side by side with your Noob in the same lighting.
What TD told you this?
PureTime. I found it strange and when I tried telling them and explaining with pictures, V3 and V4 side-by-side, that’s the response I got. Also they don’t have it listed on their website as V4, still showing V3. Even told the the differences with the correct subdial and pinion. What gives?
Also I didn’t want to be a dick and send him links to other dealers pages, but I might have to do that. And the reason that I need to stay with this TD is because I have some credit with them that I need to use.
Panda Dial is easy to tell V3 from V4 due to sub dials. TD shouldn’t dispute this with you as its a super easy differentiator. PureTime are great and well reviewed, but are a high volume TD and probably place large orders and then distribute. Wouldn’t surprise me if they have a bunch of V3’s they need to move before V4’s replace them.
In all honesty I have not ordered from PureTime, so am purely speculating. I enquired about certain watches a month or two ago asking for their opinion on what versions were best. They pointed me towards particular factories that clearly had inferior current versions. At that point I felt like they had an agenda so moved to a smaller TD where I can speak with the owner/senior personnel who really know the watches/factories.
Who would be considered a smaller TD in your opinion?
