stpaul Posted December 2, 2012 Report Posted December 2, 2012 Is the swiss ETA worth the $130 additional? Still on the fence whether to make the jump or not........
Higs Posted December 2, 2012 Report Posted December 2, 2012 Is the swiss ETA worth the $130 additional? Still on the fence whether to make the jump or not........ Save the money for a re-lume?
gordotre Posted December 2, 2012 Report Posted December 2, 2012 OK, So I now have my QC Photos and wanted to share amd obtain some feedback. I have outlined what I believe are some isseus but need some additional eyes to see if I should reject this watch. Issues IMO: Internal Bezel Ring: 12 Oclock marker sloppy. 50 marker both the 0 and the 5 are questionable. the 11 marker also has sloppy lume. the 2 oclock marker has sloppy lume. the 3 on the 30 is sloppy the dial and hands look good. Bezel itself: A couple scratches and marks in the area of 7 oclock Pleas advise if this is being over critical. Based on other photos I think this is a reject.
geestyleed Posted December 2, 2012 Report Posted December 2, 2012 I would say that this is one of the better one. But I am no expert
gordotre Posted December 2, 2012 Report Posted December 2, 2012 I would say that this is one of the better one. But I am no expert Based on what other have told me that seems to be the case. The only area I am asking about the bezel scratches @ 7 o'clock mark. If they can replace the bezel or show they are not scratches I will accept. Thanks for the feedback!
kingblu3 Posted December 3, 2012 Author Report Posted December 3, 2012 I would say that this is one of the better one. But I am no expert yeah man.. i'm starting to regret that i accepted mine too early. but was going send the watch for a re-lume anyway.. so I'm hoping that a good lume job will get it up to par with all the hype with a diver v3. will post pics shortly when my watch arrives
Guest gregc1992 Posted December 3, 2012 Report Posted December 3, 2012 A little disappointed by my V3 as well...there is a noticeable nick next to the crown. Lume is not TOO bad and it looks like the cyclops doesn't have the dreaded blue tint.
kingblu3 Posted December 5, 2012 Author Report Posted December 5, 2012 Hey guys.. i recieved my diver today.. i cant seem to open the clasp. the 2 buttons/pushers simply refuse to depress. Any body had the same problem ?

Any body had the same problem ? edit.. sorry my bad.. apparently the clasp doesn't work the way i thought it does. pics and review coming shortly.
bwhitesox Posted December 12, 2012 Report Posted December 12, 2012 How about we approach Angus to buy just the tachy ring unlumed that way we can send them off to our favourite modder to do a propper relume on them...Thoughts?
JKDDUDE Posted December 15, 2012 Report Posted December 15, 2012 Don't you guys think you are losing your minds just a little?
jot9011 Posted December 15, 2012 Report Posted December 15, 2012 IMO it's better to get an older V3 ...not a V3.5 and upgrade to the colorless cyclops yourself.
kingblu3 Posted December 17, 2012 Author Report Posted December 17, 2012 Ok guys.. My watch came with non working date and spoilt bracelet. I written to puretime to ask for a return address. And it's been 20 odd days and still no reply . Seriously ?! Anybody got a shipping address for puretime ?
hansmeier Posted December 17, 2012 Report Posted December 17, 2012 Try PM Angus directly, or email Francis (personal assistant to Angus). I'm confident that they can help you!
The_Godfather Posted January 5, 2013 Report Posted January 5, 2013 Ordered the V3.5 myself couple of days ago. Anybody happen to have more info regarding it's availability? Didn't say sold out on PT so figured there's stock. No QC pics yet but I was kind of counting on the relume anyway already. Who do you guys advise for this and what's his rate? Thanks

Thanks The website would not say OUT OF STOCK, unless its permanently out of stock, you gotta ask the TD's. But anyhow, they were in stock the last time I asked. Just wait or PM Agnus, he'd be happy to help.
