I really cant spot the difference between V2 and V3. Maybe just to gain sales, still tempting to get the newest release even though i cant spot the improvements :)

Every TD get the watches from the same source, so u get the same watch regardless if they call it v2 or v3.

Mine just arrived last night.

The 9 and 12 look poor when zoomed in but I don’t notice it on the wrist.

I’m really pleased - the bracelet clasp is fantastic.

Those crooked markers at 9 and 12 don‘t go in any way. Horrible.
My blue V6F does not have this issue. And it has got thinner bezel font.

But let me talk about bezel font: Tudor itself used different bezel font thickness. It depends on the color and if it is an eta powered 2-liner or the new 5-liner with inhouse movement. So I don‘t understand why ZF has been taken off the „super rep list“. V6F is still on the list? No complaints about the wrong blue color? It‘s too bright compared to gen.

And I have got an advice for dirty and smudgy bezel lume. Clean it carefully with a lint free cloth and a small amount of isopropyl alcohol. But don‘t work too much on it because isopropyl solves the lume!
After this process you will receive a clean white and bright matte lume color.

And there is another issue with all Pelagos reps made by V6F: They‘ve got AR on the outside of the crystal. After short usage you will notice microswirls on this AR surface. So I polished this AR away. Gen does not have AR the outside, too. Only on the inside of the crystal. But this is an easy mod. I will have to check if V6F has got AR on the underside, too. If not this will be my next mod.

Mine had an AR coating. It was clearly obvious while I was polishing it away.

Received my v6f and the lume on insert is all jacked up. So push your td to show you the picture. I asked twice and my td “forgot” to send it to me both times and assured me it was good.

For those of you with a Black V6F in V2 or V3, can you confirm if the dial has the awesome grainy black texture that the hi res gen pics show? I’ve seen the rep in heaps of photos but I can’t make out whether the texture is the same, it just looks like a flat matte black dial with no texture to me. I can’t tell from my QC pics on my incoming one either. Thanks

I asked for a lume shot for mine, came out looking pretty good but the date was at 2 for the lume shot and 21 for the other QC shots.
I'm a bit skeptical about this.. but no point fighting over it even if it really wasn't actually my watch in the lume shot, they wouldn't admit it anyway.

Mine is definitely grainy - but it is quite hard to pick up in a pic....

So the only issue with the LHD is the corners in lume?

Hmmm...so I‘m thinking about what version I got? It was sold as KW/V6F V2. But the blue color is definitely brighter. And this watch was delivered with outer AR.
Can anyone enlighten me?
