Hey guys,
I'm planning to buy a blue DJ 41 with fluted bezel. I'm thinking more about CF with Xing bezel update. Maybe somebody has recent images of VSF/Clean (mostly interested in dials)? And I have a few more questions in case anybody could help. How much better is VSF's movement (accuracy, reliability)? Does the last version Clean need deep crystal? I read that the current last version has a much better crystal, but still maybe there is a difference
Thanks in advance!

Ordered a DJ41 Blue Clean Factory from CTime. I think I( should order another couple from Steve The One for making this amazing comparison thread!! Will definitely post some wrist shots after I GL the QC pics :)

Hi everyone,
do you think xing fluted bezel is better than current vsf? Do you recommend buying it, or is vsf good enough?

My TD just got a new batch of CF Datejust 41mm and it looks like the date border has been updated from the black to blue now.

Can anyone else confirm? I haven't received it yet to see in person but here are my QC pic comparison. Could just be the lighting too. I will post pics when I receive it

I have this watch with the smooth bezel and oyster bracelet... Can anyone recommend me a nice rubber strap for this DJ?

great comparisons. wonder is the accuracy of various factories is the same for the 36mm. Seems as though VSF is the best then Clean.
