[MENTION=83013]smoke[/MENTION] I have heard a few people say the hulk bezel color has not changed from the V5 but it looks clearly different to me. Is it that lighter, closer to gen green that it looks?

Look closely at my pics there is a gen hulk I sneaked in there for u guys ???that should give you an idea on the brightness of the insert

Yes it looks like to me that the insert is much closer to gen than the V5. The V5 was good but it was too dark and olive colored, this new one looks more like the vibrant green as per gen.

You can't buy them until after the 18th otherwise I would have 4 already
Ok, but where did you get that hulk?? This looks amazing, I never manage to get such great watches when buying...

I would say it is much closer than the V5 but I will wait for the experts to chime in later ;)

Hopefully the 3135 is reliable.......wasn't it mentioned another movement can be put in if the 3135 has problems? Forgive me but there was so much info in that original thread I forgot a lot

If had had to bet money I would say the v6s is probably a bit darker than gen.but outdoors it won't be noticable.in the sun will look great.nice summer sub

Btw is it confirmed that 3135 crystal is lower than 2836? Or its just an inconsistency of the factory?

^ Yes it does but I still think bezel is a bit dark. I am looking at my V5 bezel right now out in the sun its a very bright green. The difference should be very subtle and objective. Won't know until we get gen - v6s - v5 all side by side in the exact same place.

Yes I am waiting to hear more member reviews, but it does look lighter than the V5 even in the light

don't get it, if you got both watches, why not put a picture with both watches head2head? That would straighten out a lot of question marks.
