Gen just bought for the Factory to Rep, can't see this taking long considering they just need to do the dial and bezel.

Wonder if they will get the blue correct :hehehe:

Actually the caseback is also different, it had to be changed to fit the new in-house MT5612 movement since it is a different size vs the 2824. They also included more text on the caseback which references the fact it is a manufacture movement.

It looks like a toy watch on pics but in real life the blue is really beautiful. One of those watches you need to see in person too really make up your mind.

A result of the new in-house movement which is COSC certified.

Another change on the dial is a lack of the lume indice outside the date window on the new version.

The blue Pelagos is on my wish list for sure. However, I don't like the paragraph of writing on the dial. I'll just have to get over it!

I checked one out at the AD.. I might be in the minority, but in person it still looks toyish. I'm not a fan. I couldn't imagine dropping $4k on a gen. Crazy thing is my favorite color is blue, and usually if it's blue (about any shade) I like it.

I think I'll pass on this one. My rep wishlist is already too long!

Also super eager to see a release of this... I wonder what they'll do for the display caseback and movement.

So true. Why add all that to the dial? "ROTOR SELF WINDING" Really? Why does the owner need to be reminded of that feature every time they look at it?

Probably an a2824 like the previous version, and it doesn't have a display caseback. It's solid.

I feel dumb now -- that was meant for a completely different thread. :x

I still want a Pelagos blue now, though! :p
