i was told by Ryan at intime and Marv that the lume on the dial and bezel are now the same for V6F. Does this make it the best rep for Pelagos LHD atm? Compared to ZF

You guys are getting it wrong, the gen also has the lume outside and not flat.

Nope, on the gen, the lumes are inside and a little bouncing. But the markers are a little dug and the lumes are placed inside.

Anyway, it's not something that jumps to the eye...

Credits go to @k4jun, he posted these pics before.
But it looks quite puffy to me:

I had the gen a few weeks ago in hand in an airport.

It's not that puffy. It's like on the other pelagos.

Markers have a "hole" inside them that is the size of the lume and the lume are placed inside that hole. The lumes are puffy, yeah, but they are placed inside the hole, so the thing is nearly flat.

On the rep, the markers are just flat and the lumes are placed above and for some reason on the LHD, it's way more visible than on blue and black pelagos because of the cream yellowish color, not being white over white.

So I can guarantee it's way more visible on the LHD. Plus, they are not like the real thing, they are "squared" when they should be rounded.

See the six Marker on the gen you posted above ? (the second picture) you can see the bottom of the marker being dug and the roundy lume being placed inside.

Ahh okay. was an optical illusion though. Thanks for clearing that up. But its still such a minor issue I dont really think its a biggie. But im sure the V2 will fix this.

Yeah, it's a small issue, but sometimes with the light it's very strange, it looks like lumes are little pieces of papers glued on the marker, it's not "gen like", if you know what I mean.

Still a GREAT rep and I almost pulled the trigger on it but I finally took the blue one.

Other Tudor reps have suffered from the cheap feel of the bezel play...even my Blue Pelagos, we'll see if my BBB (on the way) suffers as well. It appears it has been fixed in this rep...?

Pulled the trigger on a gen pelagos LHD. If anyone wants to meet up or send me a ZF/V6F i'd be happy to do a comparison. Will take some additional pics for ya'll. Also spoke to MarvellousRep on a V6F LHD. The bezel lume is better than before, but it still has a slight green hue to it (not blue)

At least with the V6F LHD reps i saw, not superrep yet imo. But first class for sure.

Just take some high res shots once you have it. Then another member with the rep can do the same and we can compare. Its just hard to find shots of a gen at different angles as noone takes pics oike that and uploads them of their gen watch
