Arkbro81 Posted August 19, 2013 Report Posted August 19, 2013 Anyone have any experience with the V2 steelfish from Toro? I was looking at more dealers last night and noticed this one on special. My Super Avenger should be here some time this week I'm guessing, since it shipped from Andrew on Friday, but thinking this might give me a slightly smaller option to wear if it's decent quality.Thanks!
ceocorona Posted August 24, 2013 Report Posted August 24, 2013 Toro, Sneed, TT (andrew). Any of those will get you the v2. I bought a swiss V2 in May from Andrew and it was perfect. I recently sold it and plan on eventually replacing it with another but asian movement. I know sneed has some great prices on the asian movements.
Mike on a bike Posted August 24, 2013 Report Posted August 24, 2013 Ditto have with the Asian runs like a top ,great watch go for it.
Calibre16 Posted August 25, 2013 Report Posted August 25, 2013 I just got the V2 from Ryan for $198, it was the best price of all TDs that I could find. I am super happy with it, it's really awesome. Shipping with DHL from HK to Sweden took less than 24 hours, crazy fast.
Arkbro81 Posted August 25, 2013 Author Report Posted August 25, 2013 Awesome thanks for the replies! I'll have to check those other sites out. You mention to go with the Asia movement over the Swiss, but does the Swiss have a smoother second hand? Maybe it's just me, or the different moment all together but the Super Avenger I got has the Asia 7750 and it seems like the second hand will have a smooth sweep for about 10-15 seconds and then have a small stutter or pause a beat then keep going. Maybe it's just my watch. I know the V2 has the 2836-2 so it's different. And forgive my new-ness I know it looks like I have no idea what I'm talking about.
AllergyDoc Posted August 25, 2013 Report Posted August 25, 2013 This is the movement you will get in your "Asian clone" SOSF for about $200:
torobravo Posted August 25, 2013 Report Posted August 25, 2013 Steelfish asian is a very good deal, considering that they share the same case/dial practically everything same but movement. It´s half price...
AllergyDoc Posted August 25, 2013 Report Posted August 25, 2013 It is. Mine keeps excellent time, looks great, and has great lume. But it doesn't have the movement I was led to believe it had.
Yawn Posted August 26, 2013 Report Posted August 26, 2013 Get a gen dial and ur set, the rep 's' doesn't have the curve.
