This one's got a bit of a story:
After getting my VSF Omega from Jtime, I showed it to my father when I visited him and he was quite impressed with the quality. He had recently come back from a vacation in the Bahamas where he saw and fell in love with a Blue 42mm Classic Fusion. Since I was a little kid, he has wanted a nice watch. However, with watches being quite expensive an us not having $15,000 laying around to blow on a nice watch, he hasn't been able to get it (kids are expensive!)
So, for Father's day I've decided to get him a replica (trying to save up for a house in Toronto - can't afford to blow $15k CAD) as he doesnt seem to mind it and had actually asked me if it would be possible to get a Classic Fusion replica just like the one he saw on his travels. He has since been following up with me religiously on it and I've been telling him that I'm still trying to source one so I can surprise him on Father's Day.
I first reached out to Jtime, InTime, and Trusty Time. Never heard back from TT. Li from JTime was very nice and helpful in deciding between WWF and JJF. As much of a pleasure it is to work with him, he unfortunately didn't have the JJF in stock and I noted that a 45mm WWF would be too big for my dad's wrists. InTime replied that they do have a JJF V2 in stock so we chatted over a few days (since May 20).
Let's see how this is gonna turn out - I hope I can make this Father's Day the best he's ever had! Maybe I'll have to buy him a Gen for his 60th this year hgoon:
