slay Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 i dont see any difference between v2 and v3? they both have a sucky datewindow? the datewindow is mich more important than the PR indicator, if you ask me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lanikai Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 there will be a updated version of the 5004 but it has not been released as of yet.. should be by the same Maker as the 5002 .. I'm waiting on that one fo sure.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MADRED7 Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 I got the version 1 and I am more than happy with it....only thing to change is the plastic-strap that looks nice from first glance but if you take it off, you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sander Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 Mate...I thought the V1 was visually identical to the gen (other than the recessed DW). What is the issue with the PR indicator? Cheers It doesn't work. All the hands are set the same. I have changed mine to the maximum power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samurai Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 It doesn't work. All the hands are set the same. I have changed mine to the maximum power. Thanks.....that's what I thought. PR on max is ok since it will stay there if you are wearing it and unlikely that anyone will ever see it move. Am planning to get one for myself.

Antonio Posted November 7, 2008 Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 How hard is it to change the power reserve? Simple as taking off the back, removing the movement, resetting it? Forgive me, I've never done it. Never modded, never removed the back of any but my short-lived AP Royal Oak. I know, I know, I've been here a few years and not even done the simplest things.

OhMega Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 is there a comparison between the 3 versions around here in this forum? I read some posts about the wrong position of date window in "v2", and that's it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
