permabull Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 So now other dealers are offering pre-order on this as well. So much for Angus' "exclusive" on the watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jkay Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 I honestly wouldnt mind if it was twice as good You can not trust even trusted dealers to be that good. it's like trusting the "waterproof service" and paying for it. It's just not sane to do this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deja123 Posted March 27, 2012 Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 For the Price of the V3 you can get a Uwe modded V2 superlumed, ar'd etc...this was my choice :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Racer686 Posted March 27, 2012 Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 I didn't know Uwe would superlume and AR a watch for $50? (that's the difference in price between V2 & 3) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

specialvat Posted March 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 The watch is now delayed due to factory holiday and a crack down by the rozzers, may be mid april before we see it. THE HORROR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gran Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 I know I know...with a V3 added I will have three of these..the delay is horrific.....but most important is that the V3 will be much better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bertieng Posted March 31, 2012 Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 Why does it seems as if they are just milkling the cow? There's always some errors etc. Just to get people to always want the new improved. I wouldn't mind spending 800$ on a rep from the dealer if it was the same as if i bought a watch from BK or a noob that i shiped to Uwe to let him do his magic on it. Please please factories make it super mega great from the start and just charge some more: Diver v3 normal - 320$ Diver v3 Superlume and all other crap fixed - 620$ :clap2: What are the fixes on V3 vs V2 apart from the superlume, AR sapphire and cyclop? We are talking about a $300 difference here!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gran Posted March 31, 2012 Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 What are the fixes on V3 vs V2 apart from the superlume, AR sapphire and cyclop? We are talking about a $300 difference here!? I think the metal minute markers are larger on the V3 (more space for lume), date window larger and more square....small differences only we would know...please add if I have missed something or is in error Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edgematic1 Posted March 31, 2012 Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 Dial, case, strap, caseback, hands, a lot... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PATerai Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 (edited) What are the fixes on V3 vs V2 apart from the superlume, AR sapphire and cyclop? We are talking about a $300 difference here!? Theres only a $50 difference in price. V3 has correct case (v2 uses roo case) Caseback is nicer Dial is concentric rings all over Dw cutout is better Strap lugs are raised like gen Screws are sunken like gen Lumed innerbesel (production model is going to be better lumed) Dial markers more correct, 12 marker is closer together like gen Strap shape like gen Strap texture like gen (not smooth) Double ar on crystal and Dw cyclops I know the lume looks weird on the prototype but should be fixed on production model.

mjmj Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 I believe the dial has the correct fonts too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gran Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 what is the major difference in the case between the V2 and V3? height? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edgematic1 Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 yes, bezel shape as well and thickness of the CB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edgematic1 Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 oh and the V3 only has single AR, not double like PATerai pointed out, gen has single AR as well, on the inside only. Cyclopse has double AR. The buckle is also same as the gen (engravings & shape). Also the shape of the crownguards is a bit different.

Cyclopse has double AR. The buckle is also same as the gen (engravings & shape). Also the shape of the crown guards is a bit different. Wow! but for me the most visible improvement from the modded V2 is the size of the "metal minute markers" and date window/square hole in dial....its impossible for me to tell if the new strap is any better as he pictures ive seem are not large enough to cover the entire strap Not sure I can see the improvement i "bezel shape" this is my V2 below....I can see the CB (black thing beneat bezel) is slimmer than genuine...but not sure how different the bezel itself might be Below genuine G-Series ROO Diver...whats the difference between the new H and the older G series of the genuine? 15703ST.OO.A002CA.01 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm really excited to see live pics of this, kinda want to pull the trigger but something is holding me back. I think its the badly lumed bezel on the prototype, the rest is top notch.

bertieng Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 I will say it is amazing if for a $50 more to get all the improvements what edgematic1 has highlighted. If the V3 really comes out like this, I must admit almost all the other reps can be thrown in the trash bin, lol. And it will be the best rep ever seen in the rep history. Can't wait to see the real thing comes out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't wait to see the real thing comes out. Well, it won't be the best rep ever seen in history, but it probably will be the best AP rep in the AP rep history.
