The old SA had these issues. The SA3135 that you find in recent watches actually is the VR3135, as VR is an internal naming habit here in RWI. Look around, KJ2020 has shared a couple of times the guidance on how to recognize the VR3135

VR>SH>SA

3135 movement comparison Gen-SA-SH-VR

Most TD's call the VR an SA. Look for the gold shock absorber block on the balance staff and the blue hairspring to ID the VR.

Noob V11 is showing the VR, but Noob has been known to also use the old SA even if showing the VR. Ask for a movement pic in QC.

Thanks for that. So, VR is a completely different movement to the SH and SA? And VR is currently the best choice of the three? VS is pending assessment?

Mates I'm considering these 2 models for my first rep to buy. Which one is the right choice or you can recommend something else?

Thanks in advance

VSF is probably what you want. However, I suggest you read thru pros and cons of each watch before making the decision. All reps have flaws and the flaws are different in each factory version.

How do you order from Trustytime to EU - directly or with transfer in UK. Which way is better after Brexit? What price is being declared by Trustytime to Customs?

Thanks
