Does anyone know a vendor currently selling a V2 with 2813 movement? I tried puretime but after 10 days of emailing back and forth about the QC pics of them trying to convince me there is only one version, and me telling them they were trying to send me a V1 and not a V2 like their site shows, I cancelled my order. Kuvarsit won't tell me what the serial numbers are on the back of the watch or if the bezel can be moved with or without the button....without me first buying one. I think it's absurd. I also emailed toro but haven't heard back yet.
If anyone can suggest a vendor who actually has the V2 2813 movement in stock I would appreciate it.

I'm looking for the same... I can't seem to find a TD who actually has one in stock.

@yawn: Rep 
?
Here's mine and I love it!! Got it from Toro recently after my previous one got stolen in a burglary. I just had to get another one, it's my favorite:couple_inlove:
@captaincaveman: go for the asian clone, you won't regret it, forget the 21j, it doesn't do this beauty any justice...

Guys, can You please give me instructions how to correct bezel alignment? I need to rotate mine because it is just half a click from center.
Should I use regular hair drier to heat up the glass and rotate by hand or there is a better method, because last time it did not work out.

Nice! is that a V1.5 or V2? (please use serial number to confirm)
OMG I am in the same boat, they are sending me QC pics of the V1.5, I've asked them to verify the two piece caseback, working bezel lock and movement. (since the V1.5 only comes with the 2813 I think). But I don't know what the point is since its definitely that it is a V1.5 from the serial number. The annoying thing is that my original order was for a watch whcih they did pretty much same thing, send me QC pics of an inferior version when I am paying for the more expensive version!
I might as well just cancel my order, prob not worth wasting time trying to explain difference between V1.5 and V2.
Update 2:
Just got QC pics from Toro, case serial matches V2 serial (82058507), can see its definitely a 2 piece caseback (center of case back does not line up with the outer ring) and Toro also confirmed working bezel lock.
Can't wait to get my hands on it!
Btw I don't think there is a V2 with a 2813, only the V1.5 comes with that.
Toro says he has stock, waiting for him to confirm about the bezel and two piece caseback, and also from Therion666 if his from Toro he got recently is indeed a V2.
Update:
Thought I would just give an update, managed to cancel my order with Puretime, given Infinitilikenother's experience and that they don't seem to know about the V2 and functioning bezel lock it didn't inspire confidence that they would know what version they are actually handling.
Toro replied confirming that his one is V2 and has functioning bezel lock as per gen so I have ordered with him. Since a couple users have seem to have gotten one from him and a user in repgeek posting one for sale in feb/mar after just receiving it from Toro, I really hope he is still able to get his hands on a V2.
Hello mates, this is my first post, while I am in this forum, but I had not dared to write so far, the question is that I bought a seamaster Ploprof a trusty time, the first thing I liked was the grateful attention of andrew, I have the Ploprof in my hands and I'm surprised by the high quality of the watch before sending they tested several to make sure he was ok, and so is I've taken my watchmaker and has done the leak test, the surprise is that it has siso resistant up to 150m which supports the machine, incredible, I'm very happy with this watch, the question that I make is: where can I buy a mesh shak for this watch with good price? a greeting
welcome to the club! I am sure you will enjoy your ploprof.
For the mesh strap, place a bid on this: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=151348510808 don't select buy it now. after a day the seller closed the auction early and sold it to me for $47.
It is the same as the mesh straps that is being recommended by other members, considering that goes for about $60-$70 this saves you a bit of money
Gen or rep?
Omg... Is this watch still available somewhere? What a beauty.
i would appreciate the directions to find it. There's so many out there and all different.
I sold mine A while back, i heard rep factory stopped producing it. This one gone though some extensive modding, including sliver bezel number, super lume and electro plating handset. Replace happy feet and shave HE valve.
Your best bet is find a ploprof in M2M section
Thats what I found out too. Hard to get and the best ones need modding to make them so.
Thanks for the reply Yawn. Beautiful watch.
Most TDs still have the V1.5 available. But it really is the V2 that you would want, pretty much better in most ways, 2 piece caseback, locking bezel.
Best bet is Toro, he is still able to get the V2 with asian 2836 movement http://www.torobravos2014.com/index.php/index.php?route=product/search&keyword=ploprof
Josh (perfect clones) is also able to get the V2, but only with the swiss 2834 movement and costs over $500.
