If one had both the ARF and VRF 3135 hulk and wanted to build a better hybrid with the best of both worlds, what would be the best part from each?
Dial
Bezel
Crystal
Bracelet
Case

Short answer if you’re going with Rolex clone movement:

VRF: all parts but crystal. Go gen or prof.
ARF: nothing

ARF bracellet is better but will not fit properly into VRF case I guess. Lugholes don’t line up with springbars.

Problem with bracelet fit is the width. The ARF and Noob are right at 20mm, the VRF is llike 19.92mm Always possible this is a one off, or a batch issue as there is only one report of this and the VRF TT bracelet fits a Noob GMT.

I can confirm that the lug width of the VRF Max also is narrower than 20.00mm.
