QC Pics - VSF 116610LN

[SS72]

To me, the 3, 6, 9 markers on this dial look a bit too pointy on the corners to be VSF. They might just appear that way due to the angle and over exposure of the images. Hoping KJ2020 or another SME can confirm.

It’s a VSF. Easy tell is the serial number.

Plucks noob question and i hope i wont get flamed for this, but does each factory put a "tell" on their subs so we can identify it?

I would say that the bigger issues with this watch are the uneven spacing of the bezel markers (e.g., the marker at 55 is almost touching in the inner diameter of the bezel insert) and the low position of the date within the date wiindow.

Thanks. It's not the case/rehaut I'm curious about, but the dial.

The numbers on the vsf are closer to the inside on the vsf its not a qc issue

Markers on the VSF haven't looked quite as rounded as the RXF IMO, but I think none of the factories use really rounded corners. The corners are just cut off on an angle and smoothed out a little. But at least they are heading in a good direction, unlike some factories.

That may be, but I would rather have the insert on the right than the insert on the watch in the OP's QC photos (on the left):

EDIT: Or the insert on kennygconspiracy's VSF:

They stamp the clasp so you know what factory and sometimes what model it is

VSF using ARF bezel insert? So sad. ZZF is still king.

kavorca1 is it just the clasp to id the factory?

No there are certain flaws that pertain to certain factories. If you go to the search engine I remember there was a list of clasp codes to help id reps....
