I’m in the same time frame as you. Payment sent Friday the 10th. But I’m looking for the white dial 300m. Hopefully he finds both of us some good pieces

I chose zf mainly due to the color of the lume. The vsf reportedly has a more yellow/green tint, which on the white dial is very noticeable. The zf lume is a more pure white closer to gen. I think personally it’s only noticeable on the white dial version, and that’s what I’m ordering. The lug shape is marginally more accurate on the zf as well in my opinion.
The vsf that Hont procured for me did have noticeably yellow lume, at least to my eye.
It was not the main reason for me to reject the watch, butit was a factor.
There is a very good comparison of the different factories, I think posted by Theonewatches. Sorry if I spelled it wrong. It can help people decide which aspects of the watch they deem most important.

I do own a vsf nttd seamaster, I’ve had it almost 3 years I believe. It was my first rep and I still wear it often. It is incredibly accurate in my experience, it’s currently gained 5 seconds over the course of a week. That is with being worn about three or four days this week and being on a winder the other days when not being worn.
It does have the problem of the crown threads starting to strip, which I believe is common to this watch in particular.
I’m positive that you will be thoroughly happy with your vsf, as I have been with mine. As I don’t think the lume issue is visible on the grey dial.

Congratulations! I saw your post on Reddit yesterday. I hope someone explained the bezel movement to you.

Nope. I’m still waiting for Hont to find me a decent zf 😂.
I ordered a ZF from another TD. Watch looks awesome, but the only thing I didn't realize until I got it was the End Links "accents" are not flat like the rest of the bracelet. They are rounded, which does stick out once you notice it, and I noticed it when I looked at the watch on my wrist. End links didn't seem to match the rest of the bracelet. Now the pictures of the VSF looks better. I'm almost contemplating on seeing if I can order the VSF End links and put them in the ZF case. Might also consider ordering GEN end links and try to get them to fit properly in the lugs.
