I believe this is a v4 as it was delivered with the silver on the back of the bezel like described in the V4.0 post
Only received a few days ago!
Colours in some light look closer to Mk2 in my opinion. Sorry my camera is rubbish
I've tried to capture the imperfections as best I can . Its already been sent to be coated again as that was my only disappointment was with the like bump at 6 and the obvious colour difference at 18 on the 1 and 8 . Also shown in the V4.0 post !
But it's a much better than CF apart from the bump that lets it down

Is has to go in the right way up with the lip facing up so it can be pressed back on the case

Hi Guys /// Update 1. May 2024 Second part under this one: Best results with stock parts only Those who follow me a little know that I do reviews from time to time or that I take photos of a build from time to time. This time it's different and I still hope that I can entertain some people...

A bezel removal tool can be helpful but a butter knife wrapped with tape will also do.
Do you know how much it costs for a v4 xing bezel + deep crystal for 126710BLRO? Just 1 set.
I just received a quote from david - $200 USD for the bezel, $70 for deep crystal and $30 for shipping, total $300. :/
