Why do you expect other people to take your crap then?

Comprehension is your friend as the only crap being dished out is by you and some others.

I can see you're from the Soviet and the others are from Germany & Canada I 'believe'.

I certainly appreciate English may not be your first language & even though you believe you're communicating accurately with a native English speaker you are not.
Your comprehension, and the others of the English language is in need of improvement.

Do me a favour and have a native English speaker, who has no dog in this fight, read all the posts and get their take on it. I'm confident you'll be surprised.

I've never met a Russian so I have no opinion, of course, but the other Germans posting plus the Canadian are exactly how I remember the ones I met.
They're a consistent nationality, that's for certain.

Sorry to bother you, really am. But i would appreciate it if you could set a statement that some guys just stick to the thread topic. Would be great if you could do that. Appreciate your service, and again: sorry for bothering youin this case.

Funny, I'm sworn at and called names and to you I'm the guilty.

Work for you? Sorry, I have a far better and more successful job than anything you may offer. Add to that why would I work for you with 'your' attitude.

Tough guy? No, I just don't take people's crap. Tough guy? No, I just hit back harder.

When I'm not on the receiving end of somebody's BS my posts are more than best manners. If in doubt, go and check them all.

Yes, go tag a mod as when the water is too hot for you guys you go run for help instead of resolving it cordially yourself.

As I said, I wish I hadn't posted anything of assistance to bullies like you lot. Go and buy one yourself without any free assistance and take the chance like some us did.

I bet you have a gigantic penis and a really loud and fast car.:thumbsup:

What kind of prick are you.

I ONLY posted these pics to help the community.

I have NOT changed my mind at all about what I said and show me where I have.
The faults are STILL with the watch & it DOESN'T excuse or justify the lying ad and the selling of the lie by a TD.

If I could delete the post pics I would as clearly you DON'T want to see the delivered product.

I am NOT showing the watch as a proud owner, I am sharing what I received & trying to help people decide what they may do.

It's called defending yourself and by the way, I don't work for you.

When I do & I'm on your premises you can request what you have done. Until then, YOU contribute to the thread yourself.
'm absolutely regretful I posted pics and some details for you and the other 3 clowns above.
I wish I could delete them so hopefully a mod will.

I'm contributing detail and views in this thread and what have you characters done in this thread, nothing at all.
In fact, I believe only one of you clowns actually purchased the RF. If I'm wrong pls let me know.

Aggressive? No, I just don't lay down when attacked by you & the others as I'm not your door mat.
You hunt in a pack it appears, I can guarantee when on your own you're a pussy.

Do me a favour and have a native English speaker, who has no dog in this fight, read all the posts and get their take on it. I'm confident you'll be surprised.

I've read all the posts and come to my conclusion.

You are rude, annoying and irritating, maybe a 1 month break from the forum will help you understand things.

I am about to order it too.
Now, i just had a thought:
If the crystal is one of the main concerns with the RF, maybe just order a crystal from a different maker alongside with the watch and swap them?
But from what maker and would it fit.

Your not the first with that thought. But keep in mind its not sure yet if it is the crystal, or the build underneath.
We dont know.

I think it is the top edge of the crystal that is higher/taler than it should be. Someone posted this earlier. Obviously no one knows if that’s the only problem.
But if i would try another crystal, what is the recommendation?

I just received mine now - after a Halloween-style-horror-episode with the courier that delivered it to another address a few blocks away, thankfully managed to get it back!

Bearing in mind that this is literally the first rep I’ve ordered, and the fact that I’ve never seen a VSF before let alone a gen, but I think this thing is crazy beautiful!

Yes, it just “feels” good, the clasp, bracelet, bezel all just great.

I do have callipers a and the height measures 13.2mm, I also have a decent Canon R5 and an RF macro 100mm so I should be able to take good photos - (but too excited right now!) just specify which part you’re after and I’ll do my best!

We don’t even know what crystal to order or if it will work even fix the issue. To me it’s not worth it and every time I see this RF sun it’s the first thing that pops out. So either you buy the watch and figure out how to fix the crystal, a very noticeable flaw in my humble opionolm, or you wait / go with another factory that has less noticeable flaws. I don’t think the other options currently available have these 3 - 5 glaring flaws TBH.

Just not worth it to me. But if you really like the RF look and can live with the crystal/figure out what to replace, all the power to you!

I wear my reps to impress me not others.
So what’s important to me is the quality feel and finish, not how close to gen it is.
Ironically tough, most of the time the closer to gen it is, the better the quality…
So basically what i am looking for is the best feeling Sub.
And the RF seems for now the best option in that regard, or so i thought. Still looking forward to the direct comparison with the clean.
I don’t mind if the crystal sits a little higher, but if the AR and build quality is bad i do.
So, that’s why i was planing on buying the RF alongside maybe Clean hands (no rough edges) and if i can do the same with the crystal why not.
It is extremely hard to tell just from pictures what factory produces a decent crystal. Hence my question to the community.
Especially because others might benefit from that information as well.

For me, the fundamental and indispensable characteristics of a 'Submariner' are:
-bezel
-crystal and magnifying lens
-case thickness
-bracelet
The dial, hands, date disc, crown and flange engraving are all elements that can only be observed under a microscope.
This RF unfortunately does not have all the features that for me are essential.... in fact my wait did not repay my expectations.
I trust in other factories!
