Oh my…you must be kidding that the supposed better VS+ does not have the pink lume as well.

Love your review but not really accurate
You say VSF have pinkish hands and VS+ are better…but your pictures show pinkish as well

Just released on non TDs so give it a week. Personally these don't look that great....

Yes. The VS+ I had came off ok, but putting it back on was an issue. It eventually went back on but then wouldn't come back off. Ended up selling it as a spares and repairs basket case. I think it is to do with the clip inside that slips making it unable to be taken off.
Also the VS+ has a terrible bezel insert. It had a purple hue in some lights and is nothing like the gen. I also thought the lume was totally off colour in low light as well.
VS+ is only good for it's bracelet, the rest of it is mid tier at best. Well that's what I thought until this..
I had bracelet weld issues. It failed after two hours of wear.
The non TD I used has kindly sent me a bracelet replacement minus the clasp. I would say VS+ is mid tier at best.

Whoa! The reason why Omega is using the wider endlinks (one at the clasp, two at the lugs) where the titanium mesh is welded is to prevent breakage like that. Those broke easy on the thin endlinks. Hasn't happened on any gen since they changed it and I'm kinda surprised to see it happen on the rep mesh using that wide endlink.

All the AliExpress bracelets are stainless bracelet and titanium clasps.
I haven't found a TD or non TD that can get the VS+ bracelet separately.

I managed to make good with some JB weld.
So far, so good, although I'll be swapping it out with the replacement immediately.
I have a VS+ and maybe im lucky but so far only issue ive seen was getting or trying to get the caseback off. its hard really hard. i gave up actually. was just curious what difference was or why they didnt use the clone movement. didnt notice anything else at all wrong it it and i love it. but im also coming off a GMF and that one is garbage lol. night and day difference between the 2.
So I finally managed to get the caseback off and then back on (with a struggle). I ended up having to bend the naiad spring as it was stopping the caseback from screwing on. I also noticed mine doesn't have any movement tabs holding it in place. Aside from that I do really like the watch and the bezel colour looks fine to me. Lume isn't bad either though obviously no where near as good as gen

I mean the patina colour of the lume. It's too orange and really badly shows in low light.So I finally managed to get the caseback off and then back on (with a struggle).

Bezel insert is shiny and not even close to the colour of the gen. It also has very poor lume compared to VSF
VSF v4 is easily the best NTTD.
When I tried on the gen it was the weight that stood out to me most so, for me at least, the titanium bracelet is a huge upgrade over the VSF.
I swapped the bracelets and sold the VS+
