So RF is a VSF re-brand / phoenix? I’m not sure I buy that a factory comes from out of the blue with a perfect watch and movement. Looking forward to real shots in posts 2 and 3 as those gen-rep comparisons are almost always gen-gen comparisons.

I really don't know what to think of all this talk about "R factory makes the best Rolex" in the past. Is this the end of this classic joke, or is that statement going to be proven true in more than one sense? :)
