I have a specific question regarding my QC pics - I might be imagining things, but I think that the pearl is misaligned to the right. Thoughts?

Therion666 I can see the Pic as I’m on Tapa but it wouldn’t surprise me.

My first QC was very misaligned the second was also misaligned but not as bad.

Whether you’d notice on the wrist I don’t know.

My ARF Sub was exactly the same and it bothers me so I’ve changed the insert.

My ARF SD43 and Noob DSSD were also the same..and they made me sick, it was all I could see in the end.
​I'll ask for another one, because I know they are out there, they just need to find me one. I'm paying the same as people who got good ones, so I don't feel bad about it at all.

Your pearl is definitely off, probably one of the worst I have seen

Is it worse than this?

This was the one I rejected but to be honest the second one wasn’t great.

I know it’s small but it’s literally the one thing that bugs me.

Yeah, I figured.. But they're still going to send me close up pics first..
The thing that pisses me off is the fact, that I've asked them more than once to please get me a good one this time..feels like talking to a wall..

M_Hall : That looks horrible..geez..

Under intense zoom it does look quite poorly finished,
Damn is the QC dropping in these, usually I have seen good consistency from these vsf folks

Hers mine..just for reference.

Misaligned yes. Hopefully VSF is not rushing with production...

Also on the Spectre thread someone was complaining that VSF QC standards have been dropping from the first to the second batch...might be they have ramped up production once they saw the market demand was there, and now they cannot cope with it

I think you're right, I rejected two watches, the third one was OK.

Here is my pearl on the 42 mm VSF which I think is very good.
Probably the factory worker responsible for insert drilling was cross-eyed because the QC seem to differ a lot. :p

Thank you for your replies! I hope VSF won't go down the famous "mass production drop in quality" road.. There were significantly less issues before the second batch was released.
Anyway, here's a close up shot of the pearl and the triangle, it looks a bit less dramatic, but still not quite right.

I can accept “flaws” eg different to gen that are well finished but these kind of quality issues would just bug me every time I wore it!
