Measured with my not too accurate caliper the VSF is 12,56mm and CF is 12,69mm. Thats a 0.13mm difference. I am pretty sure if i would swap casebacks it would be the other way around.

What movement does your cf have?mine has a 3135 and it wasnt possible to use gen dw and crystal
In a few days I can show you the gen Crystal in a CF 126610. My TD sourced the gen Crystal and build the watch. Maybe that’s a good option.

I have a cf 116610ln and a vsf crystal and gasket but I can’t find anyone to do the swap for me. If anyone wants to do it and measure it all out before and after let me know.

No update yet, it went back to the watchmaker because there was a fault in the small ring around the glass - if he can fix that I would say it fits. The gen datewheel was also installed so that fits definitely.

I will upload pics once the watch is back in my hands.

Wait I though the gen datewheel doesn’t fit the vr3235 for the CF126610. It fits the VSF movement but not the VR.

Cheers, Would love to know how this was done.. The datewheels are different so unless he glued it on top of the cf as an overlay I’m not sure how this would be possible.

Would you please describe the detail about the reason why the gen crystal on CF 126610 doesn't fit?

Johnny Depp maybe u can explain why the gen crystal does not fit

as explained several times, the parts gen 126610, date window for 3235 and crystal B25-7017 do not fit the CF 126610. perhaps the parts of the previous reference can be adapted, i.e. the 116610 40mm, since the CF has a decorated 3135 movement in 3235… it is not a clone as already mentioned in the discussion where you took a low blow. maybe the DW for 3135 and the crystal B25-295 can mount…. I repeat maybe

I swapped the the vsf movement and dial into the cf and both crystals cyclops were in the same position. If the vsf is a true clone 3235 for the sub and takes a gen crystal it’s weird that it won’t be in the right position for the CF also. Although like mentioned the gasket and crystal size may not be gen spec on either. Not sure if the gen crystal fits the vsf though, maybe some can chime in here.

antonism I just got back from seeing my watchmaker. I gave him my CF126610 and gen crystal (B25-7017-1-C1), tried to put it together right away and they fitted well.
Full assembly work will be done tomorrow, I will post the picture when I get my watch back.

antonism are you sure you received an actual CF126610? Where did you purchase from?
