ARF V3 is nice (I have one), but VSF is better overall.
VSF has a better dial, crystal, date wheel and case.
ARF maybe has a better bracelet, with the sides of the midlinks plated.

I was thinking on changing the dw and maybe dial, on my ARF, but it's cheaper to buy the VSF and put the ARF bracelet on it (if it fits)...

CNY is not really over. Some fsctories get back to aork until the end of the month.

I wouldn't know exactly how do Chinese factories operates during or after CNY. It is nothing in China as it is here in EU :) I hope i get qc pictures till end of February hopefully.

Hi I need your advice! Is the Wrapped Gold version worth it in this case? The steel / gold strap is not used! The clock gets a gen. Rubber B Strap! So the watch has less gold surfaces! Greeting Anne

My experience with gold-plated gen watches tells me that unless you use the bezel very often or something, it's not worth it. Even the crown should look fine after quite a bit of use, assuming the plating isn't too thin.
