I have seen some vsf with the bathtube effect around the Hands chapter.
I have looked on Chrono24 for a gen 126610LN and I have seen so much r-factory watches with the same error like vsf.
It’s all in Tolerance… and if you can’t accept it than you must go and buy a rep ;-)

They said "its in tolerance"......

I might buy one like that and flip it a nice profit but as a personal wear item I wouldn't have it.

Recently a local jewelry store became a grey market dealer. I was on "the list" for a Hulk for 2 1/2 years and never got one. "No problem!" they said, and brought out a 2013 unworn Hulk. Well, unowned I should say.

That thing was a POS. The insert was off half a tic left and all of the insert 5 min straight markers were so worn they looked like polished chrome. Lots of bracelet and clasp scratches, etc. And the best part - only $23.8K!

I came home and put on my $378 ZZF junior edition and marveled at how much better it looked. Rolex can kiss my ass with their tolerances.

These are great pieces for the price BTW. VR3135, nice DW, great insert.

Those are probably VSFs on Chrono24

This release looks okay can’t wait to see in hand pics, the rehaut and engravings look rough In some photos, unfortunately it’s the one thing that can ruin a case for me and this just can’t be fixed. The lip is there but bezel from the side is not correct just like CF. Insert transitions look not as blended as CF but more of a join line between colours

Btw
I saw this on chrono 24… it’s hard to tell but I swear I could see transition lines on an old gen Pepsi. Might just be an illusion as I’ve been staring at Pepsi inserts and bezels for days lol

Whoa… I definitely see what looks like a transition line. Hope someone isn’t scamming on C24.

Maybe so. The insert looks pretty aged… I’m going to check my mates MK1 that’s been thrashed some of the platinum is really worn on his maybe it’s the case Rolex just use a thicker coating but once worn down is starts to show. Who knows

Movement Description is not the best. It is a vr superclone or only a decorated timebomb?

I like it! How do the bracelet, clasp and bezel feel? How does it feel unscrewing the crown and winding it?

Looks really good the pics above! Insert looks really nice. Transition at 18 look nice and no bleeding in to the number 8.
