for what it's worth, my old style bracelet also came with micro adjust clasp.

the new bracelet seems pretty accurate now though. might get one even though it doesn't bother me much

Cloney is your dial straight, or tilted a bit?

I've just noticed another change on this 'V2'.
At the 3,6,9 and 12 positions, the gap between the blue lines and the indices is exactly as per the gen whereas on my V1, they virtually touch the indices.
Well done VSF-for me, that was the last obvious tell between rep and gen.

I’ve gone through the whole thread and I just don’t find anything about the accuracy of the gray hue, though I read about the gray dial VSF AT, saying is a bit purplish is the gray dial SMPc 2018 rep considered as gen colorwise?

I ordered the black one. Arrived 2 days ago with the old style bracelet links + new clasp. If you guys want to check . on the old bracelet, the width of the links are 3.5mm, 4mm, 5mm 4mm 3.5mm. From the pictures I'm guessing, new bracelet is 3.5mm,3mm,7mm,3mm,3,5mm . I know its not correct but I like the look of the old bracelet better.

V2 is a stunnig rep. I do not see what more can be improved.

Cloney, in the most brutally honest way - are there any things you do not like in this watch?

I hope so very very much that the black version gets these updates as soon as possible!

And I know it will be bloody hard to explain to the TDs what updates you're looking for.. It's happened to me more than once that I've explained very clearly what I wanted, just to be shown in QC exactly I tried to avoid. With an explanation that that's all they can get me.. It felt like talking to a wall..

Anyone got the blue or the black one with an updated bracelet yet?

Am I right In thinking it’s just the grey dial that’s got all of the latest updates applied to it? I want the blue dial, is that still v1 at the moment?

I have both models you mention and can confirm that the grey SMP is not purplish. The AT is a little hue of purplish but doesnt bother me at all.

i think optical is it almost perfect, rotor is a bit noisy and date wheel is not aligned 100%. But these things are easy fixes. Bracelet takes a wellnes day with baby oil and ultrasonic cleaner:rolleyes:
