Hmmm,
I think you are right. I read it too quickly. I bit more complicated because you are probably going to need a new crown stem. I don't know this with 100% certainty, but I'm guessing that an ETA stem would work just as well as an Asian ETA

Thanks again. :) Any idea where to get these or what they are called specifically (like any model number)?

It is called a crown stem. If you are going to have someone fix it for you they will know how to find it, but if you want to try it yourself go here: https://forum.replica-watch.info/forum/modification-repairs
and dig around. I'm guessing you will find a tutorial somewhere. It isn't that tough. I have done it and I am no watchsmith.

I disagree with the AR not being all that good on this one. I have had many reps and many gens and this one is better than any rep I've ever had and just about as good as the profrnr AR Crystal. Quite frankly, I have never seen a Gen as good as the profrnr AR

I have 3 Prof crystals. It looks like you have no crystal on your watch

I know. I have one too and it is amazing. This one isn't too far off. Just the fact that I am even mentioning it in ther same sentence tells you that it is excellent.

The idea of needing better AR hasn't crossed my mind once since receiving this watch. I simply don't need anything better, it's perfect. For me at least..

The same here :-( When I push the crown back after setting the time it doesn't go to the position to wind but stays in the position to change the date. That's very annoying because when I then try to screw the crown in the date changes. I need to press strongly after setting the time and at the same time screwing in.
I hope you guys understand what I mean because of my poor English ...

+1 I have same issue, when try to screw the crown in the watch remains in date change mode. Very annoying and i think this fault should didn't pass the dealer QC .
As many of us have this problem, somebody can share (if any) a step by step stem modification? I tried but i didn't find on the Modifications and repairs. Thank you in advance!

Hey guys! I just got QC for my VSF blue V2 Seamaster and was hoping for a good set of eyes to double check with me. It seems that there's a slightly misaligned 9 o'clock marker and I'm certain it's the V2 bracelet but was hoping to get your opinion. Thanks!

its the angle of the shot its fine if you draw a line on the image, btw i would have accepted it even if it was off as it was far to small anyway

I think I'm leaning to GL; was mostly concerned about the bracelet, I'm really happy with the position of the pearl on the bezel.

I would accept it. It just the angle.On the wirst nobody can notice these little flaws (if any)

Yes. V2 Bracelet. They must be running out of the V1 bracelet. We are not seeing that as frequently anymore.

Thanks! I appreciate the advice. I'm certainly going to GL this - can't see too many flaws. Seems like VSF is really hitting it out of the park with their Omega models.
