I have yet to see a VSF 126610 with perfect rehaut. Each time it is a different letter that floats.. ordered 3 of them and all got floating letters.

Or got any of you a perfect one? I’m really wondering.

Misaligned rehaut is a characteristic of VSF:D

Hi Folks.
Just in case it helps someone else - I had a bezel that had some vertical play in it. I put up with it for a while but then over time it got worse until I was able to remove the bezel with my fingers, which obviously isn't right. After posting on here a replacement hytrel ring was suggested. I ordered one of these BEZEL GASKET FOR ROLEX SUBMARINER 116610, 116613 AND OTHERS | eBay - I've just swapped it over and it is a perfect fit and I now have a (correctly) stiffer bezel action with no play at all. Really was not expecting it to work that well.

Also, if you do remove the bezel for god's sake be careful you don't lose any of the spring loaded balls at each corner! Take it apart inside a plastic bag...

the 116610 one here fits on a 126610 from VSF?

Which of the trusted sellers are located in Europe? I’m located in Belgium.

Strapsco, however….

I just tried a strapsco rolex rubber strap on my 126619LB and it did not fit.

Not sure if the 126618LB has different lugs or if the strap is just incorrect. It is 21mm.

Which Strapsco rubber strap did you get that did not fit? Care to share a pic on the fitment issue?

En route. The current 126610 needs to go off for a service, so a backup was required. :thumbsup:

Because you can never have too many SS dive watches.

No QC, no technical problem, no help needed, not about franken
Just a pic of this wonderful watch, which this thread is about......

Wow! This one to my eye is perfection! I would do bad things to get an example that looked this good.

I’m sure it’s been posted (the video comparison link at least) but here are some additional still image uploads showing just how solid a stock VS is compared to a gen 12 series LV:
