2V or not 2V - That is my question

Recommended Posts

stiltzkin

As mentioned on other threads (Is that called thread crapping?) I am after a SOH V2 and I have found one from one of our very trusted dealers... These are the pics i have been sent - what do you more experienced folks think? I'm aware there may be a hybrid V1.5 out there - what do you think about this one. It certainly isn't a V1 due to the following...

 

Personally the 'p' meeting the 'A' is correct,

The Crown looks thinner than a V1 - more true to the Gen.

 

What I'm not sure about is the bezel - I'm not 100%, but this looks like it may be a V1 bezel?? with the coined edge being 'cut' at the face edge rather than wrapping around? It's hard to see from the pics and to be honest I've ordered it already so it's a bit of a mute point. But interested in your feed back.

 

Here are the pics of the watch I'll be receiving...

Well if you can't tell why would it bother you either way I assume you are buying the watch for yourself rather than the rep community so you have only yourself to please

Looks like the V2 to me.

Check if the P of superocean is as close to the A of automatic

like in this picture

But you if you have asked Mary for the V2 version like she offers in her thread,

you can be assured it is.

Looks just like the gen to me.

 

Here's my V2 for comparison

The only thing I hesitate about on yours is the mesh bracelet which isn't terribly gen-like (but there's nothing better around either - it's that or aftermarket only, Im afraid).

Because people asked me to on another thread as there was an open question if the V2 was still available at all.... By the looks of things it is...

 

As i stated, I have ordered the watch, it is for me and I'm sure I shall be happy with it.... :clap:

Thanks guys for the reasurance... Can't wait to get me sticky little mitts on it. Not shipping until Monday though.

 

Great news i guess for other who are after the V2 but like me thought it was no longer available.

Excellent choice, you're gonna love it!

 

Just be careful reaching under desks and passing pillars in the office - I'm terrible to bashing bigger watches against them :) and you can't get replacement bezel inserts for these!!

 

Looks awesome though, the AR on these is superb B)

 

 

 

Oh, and I think Robert probably has a good point that's applicable to all watches ;) lol
