On the V2 the 3/6/9/12 indices have much dimmer lume than the other round indices. My V1 had fairly uniform lume, and gen photos I've seen also looked relatively uniform although it is hard to tell based on exposure.
Anyone here have a gen that can comment on how the indices should be lumed ?
Overall the V2 is a great piece, the longer crown tube is closer to gen and also provides more threading, which should help reduce the risk of stripped threads. And the pearl is certainly improved too.

Oh dear. Can confirm the eBay hands are way too short. They don't look the right colour either. Sigh
Also they don't look as 'elegant'... Save your money folks.
Apologies for the photo but I think it gets the message across ok.

Reason for this could be, that the BB is larger than the Tudor Submariner, which they are obviously made for (according to the eBay description)...
Damn, that means saving money for having the original hands relumed one day

Dayum you guys are picky! Can any of you honestly say that anyone has noticed the lume colour? I know it's different and I can barely tell myself.
Its very noticeable in an office setting. I noticed in sunlight it's hard to tell but under fluorescent lights it's an easy tell.
TO ALL V2 OWNERS, IMPORTANT!!!!!!:
PAY ATTENTION, I FOUND THAT THE PEARL IS NOT VERY WELL ATTACHED AND IT CAN FELL OF IN NO TIME.
Remove it and secure it with loctite before you are going to lost it!

Look what showed up today! Managed to get a V1.975 from Sead. Everything is perfect. The pearl, lume colour… Love it!
I just received tudor HBB blue and already had tudor HBB red v2. And guess what: blue one has better, more gen-like shape of sapphire than red one. Shapes are different.
