Hi guys,

There seems to be a few versions for chronopassion around, any thoughts on this? I personally like to buy one from Andew however I don't know which version he currently stocks.

You want the v4. The progression is the following:

V1 - Completely wrong finish. Brushed ti
V2 - Dealers took remainder of wrong cases and applied beadblasting on top
V3 - Proper beadblasting only and added polished edges on the CG's. Gen has them
V4 - All of the above with ar'ed cyclcops and supposedly better caseback engraving

Now I may be missing an intermediary version but the headline is go with the latest.

I notice there is a v5 on there as well. No response to the question on the bottom regarding the differences between 4 & 5. Anyone know? I'm looking for my first AP and this one looks like a strong possibility.

I am sure V5 is what I call V4. I think I am missing a version. You want v.5.

Thanks Watchmeister :)

So who stocks the V5? I wanna buy it from Andrew but he doesn't seem to state which version he stocks. Also I take it the V5 still needed the rounded pusher mod?
Also what's your opinion on the metal frame for numbers on the dial? Are they getting better yet on the V5?

Thanks :)
