StreetFighter ypu have a keen eye for Subs. Truly impressed. And I agree, the VSF in my opinion as well, is the best for the moment. I hope many more will be available and they will continue making improvements!

Hey guys, can you please help me look through these QC pics that I just received (Trustytime) for the VSF 126610LN that I ordered a couple of days ago? I am not an expert so I'd appreciate some opinions on whether it meets the RWI standard of quality before I can give Andrew the go-ahead.

Uploading the picture to my GDrive.

No this is not allowed here. Please read the rules about QC pics and remove the link to your pics. There is no "RWI standard"

Don’t try compare the brushed finish, I refinished my genuine Sub by myself so the satin is not quite gen like.

Not sure whether it's allowed here, but I recently got bait and switch for a fake VSF, visually it checks out as VSF but it's got a 2836 movement, can I post pics here so VSF owners can chime in?

Wow, I'd be pisssed. I agree it doesn't appear to be a VS Sub. Please say this was not from a TD advertised with a 3135 clone? I can see scratches on the rear of the lugs, so this is a used watch? Who scammed you buddy?

Hi everyone, I’m waiting for my VSF sub from my TD and I would like to get some advice from someone more experienced than me.
I would like to know if you think it appropriate to send the watch to a watchmaker to waterproof it or if it is already ok. I don't need guarantees like the gen, I don't dive, I just need to know if I can put it in the water or take a shower with my watch on.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks

My personal opinion is to have any rep serviced immediately. Others have a different thought process to simply wear it until issues present, but I like to have a professional check the movement out prior to any issues arising. You can get a water resistance test & have the seals/gaskets treated at that time.
