JVS 126610 S3235....Fake VSF???

[Watchguy369]

Hont told me then, both serials are available. nothing about v2.

Hont said to me too that only the serial changes, so I asked here if anyone knew if something else was also changing.
However we hope that Hont is indeed the TD closest to the factories. He is telling everyone that VSF will be back soon

Hello all, first post, but I've been doing research here for a bit, lots of knowledge that I've just begun to digest.
I'm looking to purchase my first rep but am looking for a little help, mainly towards the recent factory shake ups that I've read about.
All that to ask, is there some type of consensus here regarding top tier subs akin to a vsf available now, cookie monster specifically.
Apologies if this isn't the best thread for the question.

Edit 2 .

I have a message in to hont and I've spoke to chazing , they said " there's a JDF version, but Quality wise , not sure yet since it’s a new release . But I think it’s up there"

That's not exactly confidence inspiring lol.

sorry, newb questions. I did try and do the research, which led my frustrated self here to ask for a cheat sheet.

It seems to be consensus that ATM Jvs might(!) be the "best Submariner". Even though, think about they sre replicas which can have some "monday watches".

The thing is, its a common Newbie Wuestion that was asked about 2 million times ("Who has the best Sub?") - thats the cause why reactions are mostly a bit angry
Every factory has their own flaws. Look at all of them and decide which flaws you can accept for your acceptY then you have the best Sub for yourself - its very individual.

ps: welcome to this encyclopaedia and have fun reading

Thanks, it's also that it seems different trusted dealers are calling certain makers by different names while being the same factory which has added to the frustration as a new guy trying to do some searching. I've had a really informative PM with a very helpful member here who has the same opinion, which is basically what I came up with before posting. Thanks gents.

you could take a look at the gmf v2

 

[Zirj3211]

Thanks. I'm not even a perfectionist by any means, I'm considering everything with the new movement. Probably should have worded my op a little differently to emphasize the confusion of makers being advertised as different names that led to my chasing my own tail in circles for a few days.

It seems that the best bet for a reasonably good quality Sub is JVS now

 

[Watchguy369]

Sometimes factorys called thereself otherwise. For example JF: 316L steel models are "JF", and 904L models are called "ARF".

 

[GGEuroHEADSHOT]

Just to let everybody know, the JVS bracelet was tested to be 316SS

Who did this test?
What are the references for the 904L SS then?

Honestly, I feel like I've been scammed. Just received a JVS 114060. It looks really good and all, I wouldn't have ever noticed about the different steel.
But now that I know it, I feel a little disappointed.

I ordered a JVS 126610, it should arrive next week, these are the photos I sent. 2R20X are the initials. Was it the expected second version? It was sent on the 26th of November.
When I get here, I'll post good pictures, but let me know what you think. I used google translator.

 

[Tiago Comério]

i'm so happy. Has arrived. The photo does not reflect reality. I will review and give more details later. I can only say one thing, wonderful.
