Nothing bad that I can see. Just put in a replacement P.9000 movement (V2 like the P.9001 if there's already one) and you're set. :)

Lume color is wrong and font color is wrong. I've held and worn the gen. I'd say it's 90% there. My next purchase after my 671 Bronzo comes in today.

How about my 382 case ?

this case is upgrade, different with VSF.

It is obvious different with your GEN?

Well if you were to upgrade the AR coating, it needs to look like the crystal isn't there.

This is true. The 382 has the distortion effect at certain angle's. Have a double AR would possibly get rid of that effect ? ?????

So the "distortion effect" is supposed to be a good effect or bad effect?

It's considered "good". Although it does distort the field of view at an angle (which is bad), that is the same with the gen (which is good). :) This is because of the limitations of the crystal used in the PAM382 (as well as other models released before that). However, the new crop of submersibles appear to have fixed this distortion issue so even at an angle the dial is clearly visible.
