Why vsf do that? I still waiting for re stock 300m Spectre? Now they have AT on stock.? ?

They have finished the parts for the Spectre but evidently they had a batch for the Aqua Terra coming in. These days, due to frequent police raids, factories are keeping very limited stock.

Just approved QC for my white dial! Pics don't do the dial justice but the time graph video shows a glimpse of it on angles that look impressive.

We like the same things, awaiting QCs now :)

It's funny how they get the hardest parts right from cloning movement and getting the overall case finishing to a 1:1 quality but fail with the dial colour which you would expect to be the easiest part. I hope the next batch has the right shade of blue.

Hmmm. I think it looks ok. The light around the room would play a part. The angle of the shot would play a part too.

For reference, here is my gen when it isn't showing its sunburst effect....

The QC pictures from the GMT thread look pretty horrible. The vertical lines on the dial point out every misaligned marker.
Could you elucidate?
I am not fond of the stamped out date window, just screams cheap. Noob got it right years ago! But this issue you have highlighted sounds much worse still. Was really hoping to add a nice GMT.

It's definitely better looking than the Datejust. I've seen the blue DJ in person and at the time I was wearing my blue AT.... Not gonna lie, when seen side by side, the blue AT looked much better.

Count me in! I've got the black one coming soon. I was looking at the GMT, but that dial is a little too busy for me. These new VSF movements look incredible. I also ordered a black/white rubber strap to occasionally swap out with the bracelet.







I'll post my first review along with lots of pictures if it's of value to anyone.

Also made an order for the blue one! Fingers crossed the movement is reliable but it looks too good not to take a chance on it.

Looks good, curious on the strap cost and how it will fit the aqua terra with its curved end links...keep us posted!

Where’d you buy the strap from?
