My logic for you would go something like this:

I see that this is your 1st post so I will go with the assumption that you have never bought a rep before and you don't already have a lot of watches. Based on this assumption I think the best choice for you would be the black dial because it is more versatile.

There you go. Now go find a TD and order it. This watch is an excellent choice for a 1st rep purchase. While you wait for it for the next several weeks spend some time reading and using the search (fn) to find your next watch...

It's OK to ask questions, especially when you have actually put some effort in it and still can't understand. I remember feeling completely lost in the Noob Daytona thread and I've read it twice :D

This is the comparison between both bracelets:



The difference is quite obvious once you see them side by side, the new style of bracelet has wider middle links.

The other improvements of the V2 are properly sized pearl and a black balance wheel.

Hello,
Is the left watch from VSF-V2, is the bracklet the V2 bracklet?
Before 3 days I order an VFS -V2 by Toro, he send me QC Pics, on the the Pics are the V1 braclet, he says the V2 braclet is not avaible.

First, sorry for the short answer, i am locatet in germany and my english is bad.

I think the dial markers don't match up well with the bezel markers, especially on the 3, 6 and 9 positions.

the endlinks and the braclet are not V2

A V2 bracelet will have a wider centre link

The watchhead looks correct with a black balance wheel (V1 had the incorrect gold)

10x for your reply and guys..10x to you all for sharing your knowledges with others, I really appreciate..my first rep was (and still is) a black sub noob V9, which is quite nice and close to the gen; my second rep was a Longines la grande classique (which I share with my girlfriend) and is very,very close to gen (side by side), and this Omega will be my 3rd, and I is my gen grail watch. I have a collection with Hamies, seikos, orients, 1 superb zeppelin LZ 129...and even so, I realised that some of those rep are giving you a lot for the money.
Returning to seamaster 300m, from what i saw (only in pictures), the one with gray dial (my favourite) isn't as close as the black/blue. So, my question for those with more knowledges than me, is if blue/gray are equally close to gen...sry for my eng and even if this is my second post, I've spent a little time on this forum.

Toro send’s new QC pic‘s, the dial markers are alittle bit better match up well with the bezel markers, but on the position 6 and 9 are not 100%. Or is it the viewing angle.
The braclet is the V1 braclet.
What do you think?

They are all equally close to gen, just pick the colour which sings to you the loudest.

What do you think?

For all you new guys...
When looking at the bezel and dial and you see some #/markers lining up and others not lining up is is almost certainly just the camera angle. These pics that you see online are magnified like 20x and when something isn't viewed 100% straight on it magnifies this perceived flaw. In reality, there is no flaw at all and it is just the camera angle. Don't start making trouble with TD's creating flaws that are not there.

As far as this one goes I think it comes down to the bracelet. This bracelet is V1. I personally would hold out for a V2 bracelet, but that is up to you.

Other than the bracelet, I would OK this one.

The one that Feuerstein11 posted is a V2

If you can't see it right away there is an easy way to tell. You can confirm my method by going to look at post #1307 one on the left is V2 and one on right is V1. Now measure the distance from the edge of the outer part of the bracelet on V1 to where the center one starts & write that # down. Now measure the center link of V1 & repeat the same process for V2. now take the 1st # V1/2nd #V1 & that should come up to about 75% if you do the same thing for V2 you will see that the ratio is about 90%. Now you can look at any pic at any resolution in metal or on the computer and just figure out this ratio. If the ratio is roughly 75% it is a V1 and if it is roughly 90% then it is a V2
