edgematic1 Posted June 19, 2013 Report Posted June 19, 2013 First ones are up on Josh his website. Doesn't look bad at first sight but we know that these pics tell us only rough stuff since they are not of good quality. Strange to see no complete strap, no buckle, no caseback pics. Bad pics. Waiting for more/better pics. If you see some, post them here. Once there are better pics we might be able to comment on it.
andyaudi42 Posted June 19, 2013 Report Posted June 19, 2013 hopefully in round two they cut the yellow off mid way through the 3 o clock bezel marker and not go all the past it like they have in the current pics.
denisegold Posted June 19, 2013 Report Posted June 19, 2013 I've got a low beat mvmt waiting for this one!!
folex Posted June 20, 2013 Report Posted June 20, 2013 The inner bezel's font still look alittle too small, though it looks better than the v3.5 diver
martijnp Posted June 20, 2013 Report Posted June 20, 2013 The yellow parts on this watch is for me a no go. I just don't like it.. Still waiting for the 26402
browngo1 Posted June 20, 2013 Report Posted June 20, 2013 When the pre-orders were taken the factory still had the buckle and the caseback to complete, so I'm hoping these are pics of the partially finished rep, as the FC finish looks pretty good on the case.
Avensis Posted June 22, 2013 Report Posted June 22, 2013 What looks good: -Bezel, insert color, AR, lug screw hole size, indices, dial what looks bad: Insert font thickness (again!!), cg shape
denisegold Posted June 22, 2013 Report Posted June 22, 2013 I doubt the shape of the CG's is noticeable on the wrist. Again, these are pics blown way up. In real life doubtful anyone would notice these tiny differences.

ninjagaiden Posted July 2, 2013 Report Posted July 2, 2013 Are any of these out in the wild yet? Joshua said they were coming in last weekend...
denisegold Posted July 2, 2013 Report Posted July 2, 2013 Are any of these out in the wild yet? Joshua said they were coming in last weekend... None have shipped yet. No QC pics either, should be the next few days.
lfovco Posted July 3, 2013 Report Posted July 3, 2013 It will be interesting to see final versions, none of what I have seen so far when it comes to how the carbon portion is treated comes even remotely close to the genuine, which I happened to also try out at an AD and had a really close look at the finish of the carbon.
mm..mm Posted July 4, 2013 Report Posted July 4, 2013 V2 is out on puretime. Amy thoughts ? I believe the carbon looks better.
denisegold Posted July 4, 2013 Report Posted July 4, 2013 V2 is out on puretime. Amy thoughts ? I believe the carbon looks better.not really.
gtanak Posted July 4, 2013 Report Posted July 4, 2013 Now it's wavy wood, so technically yah, it's an improvement from wood. It's like if wood was 0%, v2 looks like a 25% improvement? Still fail in my books. Seeing how a v3 has been forecasted in couple of months time, no point committing imho
ninjagaiden Posted July 4, 2013 Report Posted July 4, 2013 I'm thinking about getting one of these. I keep vacillating between thinking it is awesome looking and likely to appeal to my fondness for all things made out of carbon, and on other occasions thinking that the variegated finish of the case looks like a cheap Swatch from the 80's.

Wtf is vacillating? Is it like oscillating with saliva or something? And Variegated? Is that like irrigation lines filled with vinegar? Hate pulling out the Webster to read a post.
lfovco Posted July 4, 2013 Report Posted July 4, 2013 (edited) This is much better, the carbon finish is much closer now, still not there but good enough for now. I have pictures of the gen from "gen for sale post" that are lit in a very similar way to the Puretime's video, also from handling a genuine at a store, I can say that the "light" carbon patterns are little darker in the rep, that said, the pattern itself even on the side works much, much better in the V2. Still, they have quite a lot of work to match it better, not going to happen in V3, this is definitely not easy. Edited July 4, 2013 by lfovco

Hate pulling out the Webster to read a post. Dude. Hope English is your second or third language. Those are words you should know. Especially "vacillate." And if you've ever worked with plants, fabric or metal, "variegated" comes up a lot.
soireemystique Posted July 11, 2013 Report Posted July 11, 2013 These are pics is from the model I recieved !!
soireemystique Posted July 11, 2013 Report Posted July 11, 2013 This is not H factory but from Angus. This is Puretime stuff !!!
denisegold Posted July 11, 2013 Report Posted July 11, 2013 Right, from Angus. You posted it in a thread about H fact.
