To be checked yes. VSF used a nice bronzo, same grade as Panerai actually am I right?

No one has tested the 968, neither VSF nor ZF, although the latter in this photo ZF look more red and but judging by the color, there is no reason not to trust VSF.
Let me remind you that a study was conducted earlier:

This is just a comparison of the ZF and V6F (which are considered to be the predecessors of the VSF). This creates some distrust in ZF.
Later, ZF made the PAM671 and the lack of bronze color was not noticeable.

Personally, I had a ZF 382 and I have no complaints about the color when there is a patina on the watch, especially since my favorite "brown" color of bronze on a more copper alloy turns out to be more pleasant to my eye in my opinion.
But of course, the yellower color VSF / V6F / KW is more correct, especially considering that PAM968 is not often covered with artificial strong patina.
However, I don’t suggest drawing conclusions from the first photo and probably the only sample that we saw.
Maybe not everyone will be like this, maybe this is the Specificity of lighting, maybe it's a kind of surface film, or maybe the next samples will be of a different color. Let's wait, or buy it as it is.
Also, at the expense of CG, I want to note that it is clearly a different shape than VSF, especially on the arc, which is thinner, also thinner Crown, and the side of the ZF case may have a different shape, so replacing VSF CG with ZF can be a controversial step, and with accurate in terms of the correctness of the form, and installation without additional modifications.
