Excited about my first Hulk!!

[FergusWatchsmith]

After almost one year reading and understanding this small world I have decided to buy my first rep!!!!

After several months of benchmarking (and reading pretty much every guide available out there...!) I have decided to go for the 116610LV (the Hulk) from VSF (I doubted very much going for Clean, but I found slighlty more support for the first one...)

I contacted TT a couple of days ago (on the 18th) to check for the stock at the factory and they replied almost immediatly. Process can´t go smoother. They sent deatils for payment with card and I received an e-mail yesterday confimring payment had been verified OK and my order was being processed.

QC expected within the next days.. will keep you posted!!

Apologies as it has been crazy days for me... First fo all, I would like to thanks Trusty Time for the incredible attention to client and the speed in each of the interactions.

Payment: 20/8
QC: 22/8
Order confirmation: 26/8 (I had some doubts about the colour of the dial and they sent some additional pictures to give me comfort)
Order sent: 28/8
Wacht received in Spain: 09/9

I can honestly say that it looks gorgeous! Was not sure if VSF was the right choice (vs. CF) but I am super happy with the product. The only thing I have noticed (vs. one gen sub I own - 116610LN vs the LV rep I ordered) is that the bracelet does not feel as good as the original (some rattling noise). Will try to see if it improves with a bit of dry lub, but for the moment what I have done is to swap the bracelet for my gen one.

When weighting my original vs. the rep, I see that the bracelet is almost identical, while the wacht itself is also very close (again, after wearing an original sub for years, the only difference to me (although was not the LV but the LN) is the feeling of the bracelet

See below some pictures and let me know what you think!!
