What about this bezel?

Both bezel and hands are v2
i saw many of them in new batches with v2 bezel but with v1 hands (lume on the minute hand was to close to the edge of the hand on v1) but your sample is excelent and v2

That’s great news, I got this from Sead! It’s going to get a vs3235 movement, gen date wheel, dial, hands, crystal, smooth bezel and crown-if it fits. I don’t think the gen 605 crown fits the CF.

Where did you source the VS movement from?

Old and new cyclops with glue around cyclops to look more like gen

xtal still overall bad. highly recommend prof's with black hole effect or obviously gen - gets rid of that white outline around the edges due to the double bevel

Hands are V1 as well. Seems like CF aren’t pushing V2 hands a lot lately.

You mean white outline around whole crystal gasket or around cyclops, around the crystal gasket i can put gen gasket so no problem but if you think white around the cyclos that is glue which all gens have lol this crystal looks very nice to me now i just want to see it in real life and compare with my vsf..
pictures of gen cyclops, all have white outline glue

Agree. Also this „new“ ootb Xtal is bad, Gen or Prof would be the first upgrade I would choose.

Can’t justify proof really.
With install he’ll charge $210? For another $150 you can get gen.
But maybe it’s just me..

If the VS3235 starts to be put in the DJ41s along with the CF Subs etc., does this mean the argument that VR > VS for future part availability shouldn't be a thing anymore?

Is that confirmed CF will use VS3235 on their datejust?
I see rumors but I asked Li from jTime he said they will never do it. Confusing.
VR is used way more than VS and it’s everywhere. If that will be the case with VS and more factories will use it im assuming it won’t be an issue.

sorry who are?
it’s not confirmed anywhere this rumor of VS3235 on CF. afaik these movements are scarce at the moment, as VSF DJs are not in production and 41mm VSF subs are low on stock from TDs.

I see your point mate. I would go for Gen honestly (money = value).
its a expensive upgrade but the most effective bringing the watch more gen like, same as WG plating.
it depends on how good your eyes are looking at a high end rep, but Crystals with cyclops (also VSF xtal) are 100% call out for me.
