So I just got my vsf blue smp, and I'm not loving it. People talked about the little polished strip on the SEL not matching the bracelet. I didn't think it would be that noticeable, but it draws my eye immediately. Very obvious. I'm curious to see if this one ( either the orf or the $308 version) has this issue IRL.

Gods own country! Yorkshire.
I’ve always said that as it’s very obvious in reality. I have the $308 version from trusty since last week and overall it’s good. It shares the same case, bracelet and dial from ORF but the movement is vsf I think but running strong.
The crystal ar was not that great compared to Vsf and OrF but luckily I have a complete set of vsf parts from a failed lume job so I swapped out the crystal. Unfortunately it came with the wrong hands and I didn’t notice in trusty’s crap qc pics! He is getting me a set for me to fit!
The case and bracelet is much better than vsf as is the dial and lume. Inserts are the same. Crown is better too. Here are a couple of pics of it.

I have the black VSF seamaster and the bezel insert really bugs me. The gen looks like the white enamel on the diving scale is slightly sunken into the ceramic; has a rounded look to it. The VSF is completely flat with the white cut outs being square and filled flush. Is the ORF full likely to be the same? I might pull the trigger on one if it's closer to gen, or maybe I can source just the insert...
