Anyway, they fixed lume on the latest batch so why accept a flawed version when a better one is available?
My 2 cents.

I don't think we've established that there is any change in the lume between v1 and V2. The only changes that I've seen are better bezel screws, less sunburst on the dial but non uniform tapisserie and at least on some (not sure whether it's the case for all) a less uniform "Audemars Piguet" probably due to the thicker tapisserie

These are my QC pictures (already accepted)
Lume looks better imo, but we'll see in real life - should be here soon. Will post some real life pictures in ~ a week. I'll make some super high def so it can be settled what exactly has been improved and what has not.

Looks great, looking forward to see some pics under real light.

I wish that's true, but with the usual strong lights that are use on TDs QC pics I think it's too early to tell. Let's wait for folks to receive their watch and share their thoughts and real life pics

Thanks for sharing mate, looking forward to your real life impressions once you receive the watch
I don't mean to nag (well maybe a little) but v2 has for sure more correct white markers according to TDs websites.
I choose two TD here but the same result will show on Puretime and Trustytime as well.
V1 to the right and V2 to the left. These are from Intime and Chazingtime

White (or "off-white" would be most correct) under normal to bright light condition. Of course green when it's dark due to green lume

Oh, sorry...
It sure looks like v2 has more correct dial color in general when comparing to gen pics and videos but hard to say due to different lightning on every photo.

The lume looks better than what we've seen lately, looking forward to see your pictures and your findings.
Printing on the V2 looks worse compare to V1, still better than JF 15202. What do you guys think?
It's been mentioned many times now... It's due to the new dial, the texture has been raised higher, probably explains the printing difference. But reality is we've seen no / or very few of v2 in real life with good photos.
