FWIW, I compared the dial on the jtime page to a VSF dial I have and printed sides appear to be identical. A little variation on the back side, but I would say they appear to be printed by the same manufacturer that made the VSF dials.

I will give it try , pretty sure bracelet , clasp will be better then vsf , rest we will see

I did it also,and can not tell any difference.
Maybe a little fatter printed on vsf(specially.at swiss made and the crown in the middle) ?

And here you got the first QCs. I already GL and the watch is on his way to me, so its ok to post them.

That doesn't look like a CF, wrong serial prefix / clasp codes too.

I hate all this smoke and mirrors, what is going on??
I note it’s slightly cheaper that other dealers have listed it for.
my head hurts from all this clean factory/ RF saga.

Its a 3ef but intime caption is very clever because first it states that it uses clean bezel lol, i vet a lot of people will get confused

I've noticed they also did something similar if you look under the newly listed watches at the VRF BLRO / BLNR.. The description states they're using CF inserts when we know they arent, this will definitely confuse some.

That's not clean factory

The 3EF version though, uses CF parts. Look at their GMT Pepsi, it also share the same CF flaws, like the short minute hand and insert without the lip. CF silently fixed those, not sure about 3EF since I've not seen any watch irl

So this 3EF 126610LV could definitely use CF parts.

 

[the massakretor]

On another note, the CF quality check pictures show a very nice watch, but lugs look a bit fat to me.

Is it my eyes?

 

[Carrick1]

Think I might take a punt and order a clean 126610LN

 

[VG87]

I wish it was flawless! I can see at least a crooked 6 o'clock marker (check the lume shot also) and a misaligned cyclops... I think 9 o'clock marker is also crooked. Some bracelet links have gaps and clasp finishing is not as good. Doesn't look like CF..

 

[derjenigewelcher]

Rehaut and the pearl looks way better then on VSF. Bracelet is ARF. Bezel insert (LOL) is Clean.
Wondering how smooth the Movement will be.
The Lugs seem to be a bit thicker then on my VSF 126610LN, I will measure them out as soon as i get the watch. Could be illusion.
