Hi Rick,

Regarding the Xmas hump photo..
Is that you on the right and the humping couple are your co-workers, I reckon?
I have removed it (for now) to protect the potentially innocent.
While it's a cute pic, we have to safeguard the identities of folks who may not be aware that their likeness is live on a counterfeit watch forum. Should they be aware though and consent, let me know, and I'll release it again...

Welcome Rick What watch led you here?

Welcome Rick What watch led you here?

I am diligently looking for an Oyster Perpetual or Datejust. I know that both should be VSF or CF. I have seen the Explorer I and II white face and become fond of it too. I just like the simplicity and elegance of OP and DJ and the industrial Explorer.

You’re absolutely on the right track, both Clean and VSF are solid choices. Personally, I can’t tell them apart (except for the movement). I have a Datejust from VSF myself, along with both the Explorer I and II from Clean, and I can tell you they’re all fantastic - you won’t be disappointed.

Welcome to the forums! Reps are such a deep and fascinating place. Before coming here, i didnt even know that there were different factories dedicated to making specific models and making them better than the others. This forum has taught me alot! Enjoy your stay.
