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

[haasvf5]

Just got what I believe to be one of these. Puretime calls this VVSF. Bezel would not click around half of a full rotation. I noticed that the bezel was higher than the crystal on the lower half.
Upon removing the bezel, I saw that the hytrel ring was sheared, either during installation or when I removed the bezel. I suppose that it was not seated correctly to begin with.

Ouch. So much damage when seen with that zoom.

The hytrel ring definitely is dead and non usable.
What's that terrible scratches on the lug? The watch arrived in that condition?

Damage to the lug and hytrel Probably happened during bezel removal. What did you use to remove the bezel buddy?

I just got my 126610LV today with a 2R9 prefix. I suppose it's JVS?

How much of a variance can I expect out of this rep? +/- 10 secs a day?

The bezel also has some play as we stop, it sorts of go backwards a little. Any ideas how to make it better?
