After a lot of help and advice from forum members and mod's I decided to order from Sead's Italian stock.

I e-mailed Sead on 10/6/23

Sead replied within a few hours and sent me QC photo's

Sead gave me payment details and I immediately transferred the money using Revolut

The payment failed twice (due to Sead's bank not being on Revolut's SEPA instant transfer list) but went through the 3rd time. It seems that this is common with Revolut, and after 2 failed transfers they sent it the "old fashioned way", and I sent a screen shot of the transfer details

Sead sent me the tracking number a couple of days later

I monitored the progress of the package through the Italian postal system until it got to the distribution centre, where it stayed for just over 9 days. I have read loads of advice saying be patient etc, but I had a bit of a wobble and e-mailed Sead asking if there may be a problem, he replied straight away, giving reassurance that it would arrive.

Sure enough, a few days later the watch arrived, and I really couldn't be happier, I am blown away by the quality

Thank you Sead

ps. I am already in discussion with him for a watch for my wife

Very nice - is this an 114060? I am still not sure whether I should go for an 114060 or wait for a VSF 124060 with the proper no-date movement...

this is a Clean 124060 with a VS3230 movement, so as far as I know it's a proper no date movement (there is no phantom crown position)

A - Clean makes sense. They use the VR3230. To my understanding VSF have not yet released their 124060 with the "real" VS3230.
