If you can make a part, you can make a part right. There is absolutely no reason why they can’t get it right the first time with today’s technology. Witness the VSF126610LN. Little things like the font for the serial rehaut has been wrong forever on all 116 Subs. It wasn’t a hard fix. The other factories just didn’t do it. VSF decided to make it right on the 126.

The unfortunate part about this industry is that evolution only comes through competition. You can complain (and rightfully so) that the Pepsi is not up to par but guess what? This is the best we got so they will sell like hot cakes regardless. Until VSF comes back or another factory like ARF steps up to take away some of their sales you shouldn't expect perfection.

Rehaut is a bad example
Is wrong on all reps

Yes and a lot of other flaws. I know because I have the gen. And guess what? I don’t really care. It’s a REP. It will NEVER be a gen. And that is OK! It’s $550 as oppose to $10,500 (price after tax) or $19,000 on the grey market.

Manage your expectations people! Or don’t buy and stop complaining.

"No prisoners" LOL !
I understand. Although I would probably just order 2 straps ...

Lol after the VSF / Noob raids I figure better safe than sorry.

Also the patek 5712 insane rep is really hard to get (I waited 7 weeks, some people 3 months still no watch) I figured I should get the first batch lol. Which also to me usually is the best batch. They get sloppy after the first batch since that’s when they make the samples for the TD photos

You didn't understand me, that's all right, when you receive your 3 watches pending you will understand
I am not complaining, VSF's are great reps
My main watch at this time is my franken ARF 116700 and i wear it with pide knowing all the flaws
I am only suggesting that rehaut especially is one difference that reps will never reach the excellence of mother R engravement
Is it extremely small? yes
Is not noticeable on the wrist ? no
In the end you can replace like me dial/hands/date/xtal/crown/movement but there is nothing you can do for that
Just my 2 cents
