The pearl of the vsf bezel insert looks different. I thought it uses the same cf insert?

No, CF crystal is crap because of poor ar on cyclops. Probably ok for no date though.

Is this a recent fact based on May/June Or from the initial release (ie CG’s).

Gods own country! Yorkshire.

I had one early April and the crystal was the same as previous ZZF version with poor ar. Cg’s were not any better either but the hulk above looks better but still not up there really.

Does anybody know if clean factory fixed the tall crownguards? or if its still the same as in the original pics on page 1 of this thread? I just ordered a clean 116610 from trustytime and want to know what to expect

If you scroll up and back a few pages you’ll find everything you need to conduct your own research and, even more exciting, your very own opinion :thumbsup:

Was the poor AR just on the DW or the crystal as a whole?

Just noticed that vsf S19 clasp has this huge shark whale or catfish mouth gap. Since clean is using arf clasp, i believe clean clasp do not have this problem. Any one can share a pic of their clean clasp on this photo shot angle? Thanks

I did read the last few pages, it’s kinda murky. Some people are saying yes and some are saying no

Poor ar on the cyclops bud. As it’s an 11 series it doesn’t have any ar on the whole crystal.

I'm having trouble understanding this AR on the crystal thing, because my VSF 11 series subs had way better crystal clarity than my previous ARFs and Noobs. But apparently there's no AR. Doesn't really explain why the clarity of the VSF crystal is so relatively good then.
