So this isn't my watch but have permission to put up.

Uploading partly because I know a couple of you wanted to see others QC pics to get more images of v6 and partly to see if you guys agree with the members conclusion that the 30 marker is badly aligned?

Another issue which I can't work out wether it's me or legit is are the markers a lot bigger than previous models/gen?:

Mine pretty much looks like that but haven't confirmed yet. I asked if the top lugs were uneven (cf case back picture) and whether the hands lume color doesn't match the hour markers

See what you mean actually, guess it could just be how it looks in picture.

To be fair, I'm impressed with the actual finishing of the casing that does look great and improved. I'm unsure about the screws, the edges just look odd to me but probably just reflection. The hands I'm not impressed with, especially seconds hand.

The bezel markers look a bit off to the right of the correlating numbers on your QC. With that being said everything else looks ok.

Lol - why are you such a miserable condescending prick all the time? :picard:

How is it a bad idea to ask Ryan, a long term member, pre turning dealer, for his opinion on 2 watches that he has in hand and noone else seen IRL.

That's a rhetorical question before you come back with an answer you feel is worth my time reading.

+1 well said haha

Yeah, and that was a rather late quote. :lol:

On to discussing watches, someone posted a supposed V7 over on the dealer website which is all in Chinese (google translate is no help). They make mention of the V6 so it isn't a version mix-up. Can someone translate?

well, i guess i can do it for ya, myterio.

just to be clear, there's no V7!... for this dealer (yea, the super top best dude) has his own version scheme. his V7 = J12 V6, his V6 = J12 V5, etc. like the noob c sub, he already gotten to V5 or 6 LOL...

in his description, he just mentioned a few improvements & genuine swiss ETA movement is available. also, for those who bought "his" V6, can upgrade to "his" V7 with half the price.

hope this will help.

Damn, that would confuse the heck out of anyone if you had your own version naming. Thanks for the translation (so if I see liter, should be price? :lol: )

By the way is the j12's inner bezel number the right size?
They have always been too big in the past like they were designed for the carbon diver.

Here's the translation :
Inner Bezel Fonts & Datewheel Font are updated as per 1:1 according to Genuine. Bezel Screws are improved. Case finishing is improved. Movement remains the same with the Golden AP Rotor. However in V7, you will see ETA Movement fitted in.


This is Taiwan AbuNong Dealer... one of the biggest in Asia. He's basically selling noob/v6/J12/KW/ZF stuff...
He number his own versions... sometimes his V7 is not equivalent to Puretime's V7.
Do take note of that.

Yeah - it wouldn't make sense for a v7 yet anyway.. have to wait for noobs v6.1 first, then the v7 will follow :snort: :D

I haven't seen one yet IRL but IMO the bezel numbers are looking pretty spot on.

Still most excited for them to release the full ceramic version of the diver, will be ******* epic!!

it would be a good looking watch on the wrist but unfortunately for rep owners, AP has started making their watches display caseback so a rep will not come close off the wrist

Confirmed this one. I wish it had the flat top 4 date font but my understanding is that this one is correct too for newer series
