If you ask me - no. I bought it from a dealer that is not a TD here.

Hi

 I am looking to purchase this watch but just want to make sure i am asking for the right watch. It is a Omega Seamaster 300 from the VSF Factory and is the V2 that i am after. I have provided a picture to the dealer who has confirmed it is in stock. I have always used a dealer that in more recent times is no longer a TD on here but i have always had excellent service from her (Connie at King Watch).

Is there anything else i should be asking to ensure i get the correct watch.

Sorry if this has been answered elsewhere but i have tried to look and cannot see any other information.

Thanks in advance for any guidance you can offer.

So I received my watch yesterday and the quality is outstanding.  Like everyone else who has commented the watch looks different with varying lightning.

Very nice and looks amazing in the different lights.

If you don't mind could you share where you ordered it from?

Thanks

I'd just like to add that I also received the same watch as @strachan01 from Kevin!

Just for info, it took 9 days from ordering to delivery (including 2 weekends) and the transit section was only 3 1/2 days which I think is pretty damn good. :thumbsup2:

Overall I'm extremely impressed with the quality of the watch - maybe not so much with the luminosity strength or persistence though. The hour hand IMHO doesn't appear to have 'enough' reflective material to allow it to 'energise' correctly, at least compared to some of the others who have posted.

Gripe over and on the lookout for my next purchase.

Do you have a pic of your watch as well?  Just asking to see if yours is like his.  He has one of the hybrid V1/V2 models (V2 insert/pearl and V1 bracelet.)

The bracelet is V2?

As I understand it, the difference is the width of the centre links? I've just measured mine and they're ~5mm - is that a V1 or V2 strap?

Yup, middle link has to be broader than the side links.

Hmmm. I've just measured the 5 links and they're 3,3,5,3,3mm but it looks more like the V1! Can someone please measure their straps and say if they're V1 or V2.

Sorry, I don't have anything with which to measure. It's pretty obvious visually though:

But even if you have v1, so what? If you can't tell the difference, what does it matter, it's still a lovely watch.

That's the thing though. I ordered from one of Kevin's Wednesday specials with this link which I believe has the V2.

My centre link is 2mm wider than the outer links but would like confirmation from other owners as to their measurements as it maybe should be more?

Yeah we both have V1, disappointing but should have noticed in the QC pics. Quite hard to notice mind you.

Hopefully @kuvarsit will realise it was a mistake and sort out the correct straps as it could look like he was taking advantage of forum newbies otherwise? I’m certainly very disappointed as it wasn’t what was ordered......
