Bezel and Dial Review of ZZF V2S 116610LV Submariner and Comparison vs. Gen, ARF V3 and Noob V10

[Nikz19]

Yes, it works. But if you try to slide feel that there is plastic inserted in the guides ...

No big deal imho. Not worth the investment to change it. I think the overall looks and feeling when opening it is much more important, as I barely use the glidelock. But that’s just me, of course

No, the gen does not use plastic in the glide lock.

What mechanic use arf and gen?

Damn that's a sorry shortcut. You can source a DHGate clasp for pretty cheap and scavenge those track guides.

 

[Bobi01]

KJ2020 if you could spend your precious time and explain me what mechanic use gen or arf

Could someone translate this? Title reads ZZ V3. Uploaded 5 days ago

The clasp code instead of being all lower case from what I can see has a capital C now so it reads C4r. With lower case

I think it is a V3 clean bezel insert but I could be wrong.

gen are all uppercase for the clasp code looking at 3 of my watches here.dont think I've ever seen a gen glidelock with lower case date code in my life ,so that lower case code looks weird to see there should be no lower case letters in the date code on a glidelock.

smoke bro did you know about that plastick inside of glidelock?

First I would to thank JJtime Li about the watch. The best version out of the box. Here is my honestly review:

*Crown Guard* - I understand some OCD about he crown guard but i bet non RWI or even some RWI member can point that out from naked eye if you had gen on the side and closet picture that you can zoom 1000x. Nothing is perfection, unless you believe it. Actually it does not bother me at all. Really! Yes!!.

*Bezel and Insert* - The color is brighter than gen, green gray on ZZF v2s and green and Platinum Brown on Gen. For eye sight, everybody has different look, i just tell what i did see. The engraving number and color match gen perfect. (U can see one picture when i flashed the dial to caught the number engraved and color).

*Dial* - i would change to new dial or even the gen dial in future if i can find it. The "ROLEX" font accutally not accurate. "O" and "X" is completely wrong. The font little bit bold compare to gen. U can see one member side by side gen and zzf2 on the comment above.

*Hand* - definitely WTB ARF hand for sure.

*Date Wheel* - Little bold than gen and optional for gen in future mod.

*Crystal and cyclop* - It looks ok to me. The cyclop still little glare to me. Prof crystal or gen for future mod.

*Bracelet and clasp* - little stiff and sharp, feel like BP. Consider ARF too. Hope i can find. I heard it hard to get ARF part now.

Overall, this is the best of the box right now. For everyone who does not need mod and ready togo. The finish is very close to gen.

Thank you so much guys. Have a great day and be safe with COVID-19. I did attach all the picture below. Will update high-res picture soon.

In photo 1 and 5 The sunburst seems to behave rather odd in a circular wavy pattern in your dial
nice juicy insert though and good example for the lugs

smoke bro did you know about that plastick inside of glidelock?

On the slide rails inside yes I know about them

 

[Get2thechopper]

Is it usable like that in long term use

 

[Dissemination]

How does everyone feel about the bezel click? Worth buying gen click springs? I'm thinking of doing some gen parts already so was thinking this would be worth it. Thanks!

Still in the inner ring the letters do not match the line .. especially where the serial number
