It will depend on the lightsituation

in direct sunlight amd indoor it is not noticeable but in daylight without direct sun it will be most visable...

but even some gen have this flaw and i dont think anyone can see it on your wrist

The watch arrived yesterday and it is the best rep I have ever seen! Now I will change datewheel, crystal, clickspring, bezel and crown to gen. Perfect watch!

Have my VSF hulk few weeks ago and noticed the metal in the hands and indexes is very shiny under bright light is this what it should be?

I find it funny that people complain about crown guard angles or different shape of the pearl or slightly different angled lug but miss the most important part of the hulk: The dial. Reflections in current replicas are WAY OFF compared to my 2013 gen.

Please find below my comparison of the dial reflection under direct artifical bright light (known as cartwheel, disco or laser effect) between Noob v10s - Gen - VSF - ZZF v3:


Unfortunately this can't be unseen if seen once because it is often seen when wearing indoors.
That's why I am currently looking for a gen dial plus I am hoping for the sudden occurence of a new source who tackles this major flaw.

Yes sunburst is a bit to strong on the VSF but i kinda like it...

There is a gen in my pic ;-) And it is WAY softer than the three reps. That's why I made that picture for comparison. Maybe it's because my gen is from 2013.
Anyways, it's annoying :)

Wow, impressive comparison. Thanks for all the hard work!

Do you consider the winners worthy of the title?

Gen sunburst, its def. lighter than vsf. but still has a sunburst.

in fact ... in this video you can also see the sunburst effect on the gen ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJ2qQ7wlkMY

The ZF dial is very much more similar to Gen. I agree the vsf is pretty poor when compared to gen. Both reps need a genuine crystal as factories will never get it right...but at least with the ZF dial it saves me from spending 2k Euro on a gen dial lol.
