Hey all, newbie here.. ordered a VSF 126610 from Purertime about 8 months ago but because I had a second order they waited to ship together. QC looked awesome, was excited to get it. However, I was recently told that the watch got lost in the raids and and have to wait once the factory is up and running again. I now got an email saying to choose another piece as VSF is closed. When asked if VSF is closed for good they replied with yes. Anyone hear the same?

Hello chap, I know huh, I’ve got VSF cermit that’s been sat in its box since it arrived just before the first raids, glad I never C&R’d now looking at the current situ.

I Hope you’ve been keeping well. How’s that collection? I’m Sure it’s probably grown somewhat in the last 6/7 months!
I have a watch you might want actually. I’ll Dm you.

Is ARF closed? Was it targeted in the previous raids? Or is it VSF and Noob?

Has anyone been able to figure out the reason for the raids in the first place? I know that it is something that always happened, but it seemed like they were just going through the motions.

Why is it different now?

It’s all speculative ofcourse, I believe the high level replication and clone movement by VSF is at least one of the reasons

The last time I read this forum properly was when the raids started happening. It’s crazy that I log in today and they are still going on this long after.
