GF Santos superrep?

[Jayalvin777]

Qc received FYI.
Just made a comparison with the gen pics in same angle and the dial is stunning.
The sunburst effect is great also the alignement of the markers.
Asked for a couple of more pics, will share those too

Blue dial still has the wrong date font tho.

Yup. All non-white dial models suffer of wrong date font, from all factories.

When is GF making a two tone in 35!!!

I have my black V6F with a gen black croc strap. Everyhing is fine.

Got a question...I have V6F with gen strap but no braclet. Can I buy V6F bracelet seperately? Should I try GF or V6F bracelet? Thanks

V6F bracelet and GF bracelet are of good quality both, I think almost the same. Other factories, not so much.

If you had to pick between them which would you pick?

 

[leo6929]

If I could only keep one, maybe it would be the V6F. The steel brushing is a little bit finer and has a warmer "tone" color. Could also be simply luck of the draw, I dunno.

The real important thing are the screws, and in that aspect GF and V6F are both really good.

Cheers mate!

And how does the bracelet of the V6F compare to the GF in terms of feel on the wrist? Is it as smooth and substantial?

Hi guys,
so, in summary, the blue dial model (all factories) have a big problem with the data font and for this reason it would be better to choose the white dial.
The best white dial is the V6F, Right?

Both feel the same on the wrist, not bad. As I said, either one of these you get, you will be happy

I remember that the GF bracelet had quite sharp edges, not sure how v6f is since i only had the first in hand.

Otherwise great watch, but maybe need to oil the rotor which is often quite loud on Miyotas.

So I bought the GF based on your review and its brilliant! I also had a chance to compare it to the real thing and was amazed at how good the GF is, there was virtually no difference. Will share pictures.

Now I want the two tone in 35.
Here is my dilemma, either I can keep waiting for GF to release the two tone in 35 or I can pull the trigger on the V6F...?

Can they be swapped? I have V6F watch but now V6F factory is closed. Can I buy GF bracelet ? Will it for my V6F? Please let me know. I asked my TD and he too don't know this part.
