Aside from the soft corners on the bezel the XF rep is pretty amazing. The bracelet is a 9/10, the movement is very well done as well as overall finishing of case.

Soft corners sadly crept in over time. Early ones are very sharp and gen like.

I currently have a v8f, which looks great on the wrist, but went ahead and pulled the trigger on the xf now that it seems to be available again from Trusty Time. Got the QC pics yesterday and approved today, I'm thinking I am going to dig the xf version better with the closer to gen thickness.

I enjoyed this article about the Gen: A Week On The Wrist: The Vacheron Constantin Overseas Ultra-Thin - HODINKEE

Cheapest I've seen a gen is now GBP100k.

Takes some balls to wear at that price

Trusty has an 8F 2000v is that much different to the XF? https://trustytimewatch.io/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=352&products_id=24220

I’ve heard the bracelet is much better on the XF version

True, but thats a BS speculator listing it. No one will pay that for an overseas unless they are totally insane.

You can get gen for $45k on jomashop right now.

 

[Andy83n]

I'm sure you can't, not when the steel 4500v is also $45k on there

Please do a comparison when you get. Particularly interested on the thickness of XF, as I only found info from not that reliable sources.

My XF black dial is 8.3mm. I’ve been on the hunt for the gray in a m2m transaction but no luck. Any others with experience with the 8f? 1mm thicker isn’t ideal but it’s not the end of the world.
