Pelagos question (2 line dial compared to 5 line dial)

[Bigred7078]

Hey all, I've read about every post on the Pelagos that I can find and I may have missed it or I'm not remembering right. I see we can still purchase a Pelagos with the old 2lines of text on the dial versus the new 5 lines of text on the dials at most TDs.

Does anyone know if there is any disadvantage to buying the old version with two line dials? Is it missing any updates?

2 line is v2 from Z factory. 5 line is v2 from V6 factory.
Very similar in all regards. Some say V6 has better QC but my ZF is perfect.
I own the 2 line (ZF)- my reason was, the 2 line is closer to gen. Tudor used a 2824 (same as rep), now with the updated 5 line it's an in-house Tudor movement.
Love mine- buy it, you'll be happy.

Excellent summary! Thank you very much.

I like like the idea of it being closer to gen and the simplistic dial is more appealing to me. I look forward to my upcoming purchase unk:

Both are very nice. I liked the 5 line version more and ordered the v6f V2 black and it's a lovely watch and overall quality is superb.
Only thing I was worried about when deciding was the quality of the zf version if I would choose that. Many people seem to have problems with zf both Tudor and other brands.

Would it be crazy to get a new V6 v2 and swap the markers from the dial onto an old v1 2-line dial and build it up?

seems like I'd get the better bezel and lume on a nice 2-line dial...

Why not just get the 2-line V2? They are still available at several TDs.

Or or do the new versions have better bezels?

I thought the new bezels were better- fonts and lume?

You want the 2 liner.
