Yay! My dad was in Shenzhen and got me the new version! It arrived today and bezel is flushed! I'm in love.

Very nice. Not sure what you mean by flushed...that bezel is clearly engraved. Looks great though, enjoy!

I don't have any expertise with these watches but bezel feels flat and it's not like Rolex where you can feel numbers etc. With this watch it is flat.

Can you please explain how it is meant to be? My English isn't very good ..

It is engraved but the engraving is not very deep so it feels flat.

How does Omega do it? Do they paint it?

I just watched that video. Very informative, but the lady´s voice made me feel uneasy for the whole morning

I got the rubber strap from Aliexpress. Not bad til I decide if I want to go gen on it. A shame it isn't branded.

Mine landed today and I swapped the bracelet for the OMF blue croco/rubber strap with deployment. Looks the business! The strap is very comfortable and only took 5 minutes to swap out. I saw on another thread that someone had to use thinner spring bars but the ones with the bracelet that comes with the VSF worked fine for me.

And a wrist roll for good measure....

Hello, since the insert is engraved here, I thought you could do it yourself so it is plan like the Gen or LMPO style? I think if you expand it and filled with epoxy resin engraved. Can this work?

watchdude2017 , Nice watch you have there. You just reminded me how good this combination is among the alternatives (solid rubber & bracelet). I was going to list mine this weekend, but I'll be holding on to it a little while longer. Thanks.

Received mine today in black. Even better than expected. Definitely lives up to the hype.

No thanks. You can ruin your own watch.

Amazing the lengths people will go to in order to change some microscopic difference to a gen. It would probably be less hassle to save up and buy a gen if it bothers you that much

The fact that's its engraved is almost imperceptible to the eye and touch. Youd need a magnifying glass and a gen along along side to tell the difference.

You'd be mad to get rid of it. It's a thing of beauty.

It is hard to feel that it is engraved when running your finger over the bezel, almost have to use your fingernail. The engraving is extremely shallow.
