That's why it's a replica and not gen. If they were able to make these in a professional factory that doesn't get raided, then of course the quality would be consistent and even closer to gen. Pick your battles with these reps.... more value to have a gen like case and rehaut in a replica... Which brings me back to my point of who cares about a silly date font that is easily replaced.

As far as I know the ‘factories’ only assemble them, parts are produced by various suppliers and so raids shouldn’t effect the production of a certain part. Moreover, If others can do it then the point is so could they. I bet It’s probably more like the run wasn’t quite right but rather than spend more money put the parts on the first assembly run and recoup some investment, especially as people will still buy it regardless.

Like you say take them for what they are

After Watching the Video I can honestly say in my opinion VSF executed this Rep Nicely .... If the DW is the only giveaway I’ll take it lol

I do not understand what the problem is with the date .. looks just fine in my opinion .I saw quite a few originals with a slightly thick font ..
It is more important that the date be from a good place in the middle.

You have to keep in mind the period correctness also some earlier models had thicker font but all fat font dials from 2018 on-forwards have thin font DW.

Same has Noob subs come still with the double line rehaut but have the newer fat font dials but this is more legit setup as if your older double line rehaut sub would go to service it could get the newer 2018+ fat font dial.

With the fat date wheel thats's more of a tell as they wouldn't replace your 2018+ sub with an older 2013 model thicker font DW.

PT already posted the RXF LV, and pretty sure they use the same parts but with a2836 movements.

Toyota and Lexus come from the same company too, but they're not really the same thing.

True, it was just written as the same thing(insert,dial and crystal maybe?) will be a good release for sure!

They are not the same. V6F is not XF/RXF/VSF

The RXF Hulk Submariner is not released yet.

I wish vsf would create a random code on the clasp.
now it is very easy to identify the rep by the code on the buckle. in the future it would be great to see a random code as in the case
