Ah my mistake, I thought the watch actually shipped on it (it looks that good), I’ve seen a few people using Marine Nationale straps more recently, how do you find it for comfort and does the buckle system get in the way at all?
Back to the watch actually, what version is that in the picture (I’ll be mortified if you say it’s Gen so I’ll apologise now just in case).
haha, ok, watch is VSF V2
i love the MN straps from Erika, really high quality.
very comfortable and buckle system fits every wrist.
but not cheap at all

Damn, now I have to buy yet another strap..they look fantastic, are they as comfortable as they look??
I recently purchased the VSF V4 and although the milanese strap is really Well made I prefer to wear it on the NATO strap or a beige canvas strap I had lying around. imho the watch Just Looks so good with fabric Straps. i'll try Putting it on a Brown leather strap next.
Since I Fell down this high end Rep rabbit hole a couple of months ago I also bought a Ton of Straps and gave my old watches a New Look. This Community Really refreshed my watch enthusiasm
Btw: If anyone is interested in the milanese strap I am willing to let it Go

Since so many ask for Pictures of the V4 milanese strap here you go. Even If its still in stainless Steel an not Titanium, it Looks very Well made in my opinion. Also making milanese Straps that get slimmer (the NTTD one is 20mm to 18mm) is apparently more complicated to make. VSF has done a great Job with this one.

Amazing photos, thanks for those I'm very impressed too with the v4 always looked like an incredible mesh just wished it was in titanium but I've had others say it has an amazing titanium look and seen a few photos where it blends in incredibly well with the main case.

I think the colour Looks very good in combination with the watch and even on the Gen the bracelet Looks a little more silver than the watch Case. In Pictures its Always hard to Tell and Looks different all the time, so I checked it Out at a local AD.
Major difference for the bracelet is the weight, but the watch is so light already, only thing I Dont Like about Titanium watches. I prefer a little more weight on my wrist, but I love the look.

Another thing, There we're so many Reports about the lume in the NTTD being shit, I think its absolutely sufficient. This Picture is Just after wearing it during the morning and then turning off the light in my Office, No UV light charging with a flashlight or anything
it remains clearly visible during the whole night as long as you are in a quite dark room. In Other settings (dim light) the lume is Not really visible, so maybe i Just Dont have that high expectations for a lume.
Only thing on my V4 that is Not top notch is that the bezel is Not completely fixed. There is a little Play for moving right or left when you Touch it. But in everyday use No big Deal, it doesnt move by itself. Dont know if that is a General Problem with the VSF V4 but i am Not the only one experiencing it. There are even Videos circulating of the Gen with this Problem, but the Gen I handled did Not have this (who would Accept this when buying a 8k watch is beyond me^^)
