Dear all, I am newbie here, but I been doing readings in here for quite a while. Currently, I plan to get my first rep Tudor Pelagos Black V6F V3. However, I got reply from Edward Puretime, they only have V6F with miyota. I am afraid the rotor noise is too loud as describe by members. Would it be great if I swap to ZF V3 with asian movement. However, i dislike the little font in the bezel. Should I just stick with V6F v4?Can anyone shine some opinions?

I ordered the V6F V4 Miyota. The rotor noise is totally acceptable to me.
You only can hear it when you put the watch close to your ear after having flicked the watch.
Overall build quality is great on mine. Just go for the V6F V4.

I am in the same boat and from what I have gathered, the V6F V4 is the superior rep. Rotor noise is present but many have fixed that by oiling the rotor bearing. For me, V6F V4 is the way to go.

I ordered a watch from Sead and I don’t know which version it is but because of the rotor noise it could be the v6f v4. Is there a description of how to oil the rotor? Can i as a newbie do that?
Another point is, I would love to put a leather strap or a nato on the pelagos, but how the hell can I remove the springbars? My tool for usually doing that is to thick. Any hints?

I ordered V6f V4 from Puretime and it arrived at UK safety with fast shipping time. So far the rotor is not my concern as the sound is minimal, well to me. To remove the spring bar, you could simply use a small needle pin and remove it. I still finding a video tutorial on oiling the rotor, but the sound is still fine to me.
