hackR Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 Just wondering if the DSN pre-a 009 and the new 360 have the same pvd?...which case set (crown/cg/pvd/etc) is best quality? thanks...R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteM Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 I havent seen them in my hand but from the pics mate the 009 is by far a better option for 6500/6502 cases... but as its pencil PVD it will depend which PAM you want to do as PVD shades varied on gen models/series etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panera Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 360 is much more darker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niqlndym Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 Too bad...Since the gen 360 is much lighter! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteM Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 The gen is DLC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
projectologist Posted May 28, 2011 Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 Too bad...Since the gen 360 is much lighter! Gen 360 is definitely darker. It's the same DLC coating that was used on the 195. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niqlndym Posted May 28, 2011 Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 Neither look too dark to me: Anyway, it's lighter than Pre-A PVD (and Davidsen's 360 is too dark). Paneristi picture of 360 DLC vs. 009 PVD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paneristi picture of 360 DLC vs. 009 PVD When it looks lighter, what you are seeing is partially reflected light giving the appearance of a lighter finish (the first pics in your post are under soft box/studio lighting which gives the finishes a much lighter appearance, not what you will see in normal office or home lighting). I own a gen 360 and it can appear both light and dark, but in most indirect lighting situations it appears darker than typical PVD. Actually both gen 360 and 195's can appear as dark as the 292 ceramic (once again the lighting is the main determinate). I'm not trying to turn this into a pissing contest, just passing on what I know to be the case in-person. Same watch direct light and indirect light... This is why pics are unreliable for matching finishes, especially DLC coatings... same DLC coated buckle, different light source (no pic, but outdoors it looks black).

Klockis Posted May 28, 2011 Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 As for DSN coatings. They are different. The 360 is with his old case and PVD. The 009 is a new case/crown/CG and lighter (grey) PVD. MUCH better! I had both and I liked the 009 PVD case so much I bought two more for some projects Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
