Well I’ve been wearing it for the past 7 days, keeps excellent time and feels fantastic on the wrist.

bezel action feel closest to gen I’ve ever felt! Zzf was too tight, arf far too lose. This feels like it has the same effort to turn as gen.

How’s the bracelet and SEL fit? And how does it compare to the ARF and ZZF you’ve handled?

It’s not as good to be honest, don’t get me wrong it’s not awful but certainly not arf/zzf levels.

I’ll likely upgrade the bracelet to arf/zzf (when they make one)

And VSF?
Have you tried it?

Cheers

According to our TD, the VSF 126610LV is the better watch but the Green Factory has a slightly better case set in the lug area. (and of course has the 2824 which can be a pro or con depending how you look at it)

I ordered one of these few weeks ago. The pearl fell out in less than a week. Very disappointing. Otherwise seems like a good watch.

Did anyone confirm of the dial and bezel is slightly bigger on the Green factory as per gen? Been stated that VSF achieved the bigger size by just increasing the outer bezel size but not the dial and insert itself. I'm assuming this is to cut production costs and use their already produced dials and inserts for the 116610. Since Green is new maybe they actually produced the right proportions from scratch?

I received one with the cyclops crooked and the screws absolutely seized in the bracelet. Very disappointing

PIC HEAVY

Ok here is more of the GREEN "challenger" offer on the LV.

I am no technical expert when it comes to color tones or millimetric variations. I've never held these new gen Subs in hands, so I'll let the specialists work the details here for us.

I judge my reps on a pleasure scale, based on the overall look and feeling on the wrist. And to me this watch gives good vibes right away.
It feels solid and heavy, angles are not too sharp. The dial is spot on and the insert's color is a nice vibrant green. Even the hands look nice.
The crystal is nice, the cyclop too, and the DW is just perfect to me.

On the con's, the platinum coating of the markers could be a bit brighter, but they're much better than the bad ZZF V2S from a few weeks ago for instance.

The bracelet does it's job, is well polished and smooth, no rattling. The larger clasp is not an upgrade to me on these new Subs (generally speaking, gen or rep) but it work good enough here, closes firmly. .

All in all, it seems that GREEN factory gives a lot for your "greens".

Here come the pics (a lot of them, but feel free to ask for more if needed !) :

mrsullivan great example and fantastic photos. Thanks. I feel Green gets lost with all the deserved VS attention. First attempt, new maker, with a new release out 2 months and they did a cracking job me thinks ;)

I wouldn't be surprised if green was an established factory that for whatever reason thought their name would hinder sales. I'm looking at you noob
