I would hazard a guess that this yellow-green tinge is from the sun or lamp and would be white after a while. Like there

Just received my ORF black last night. comes with free black strap but I changed it into another set of rubber straps with deployment clasp.

Something looks very odd with the white dial version.
Here is my blue Qc approved already of course.
Also seen that Sead has both blue and black in the U.K. to buy.

Just messaged Sead. Been eyeing up the vsf for a while. Think I'll give this a go

I love it. Seriously, for my untrained eyes, I can't find any fault. Winding is smooth and rotor spins without noise. First day running without any +/- to the time. Need to monitor for longer time.

So the big question , IS IT BETTER THAN VSF?


Sent from my iPhone using RWI

Overall yes. Better case and bracelet and the hour markers are also nicer. Movement plates are better finished but still plates of course.
I have the AGF version which shares the ORF case and bracelet but the insides of the VSF(a strange combo!) so do have hands on experience of it to some degree. Blue ORF arriving this week too.

Thats nice to hear, but how did u get this AGF version? Or you just bought both of VSF and ORF and just combined both?

Bark & jack made a comparison video between a gen and what I higly suspect to be an Orf white dial smp 300.
The white dial looks terrible as you can clearly see on the vid, Vsf is much better in this regard for this particular colour.

Sorry bro just searched and looks like there is an AGF

Thanks for the info. So this combo is better than the VSF or the ORF alone ?

I wouldn’t bother with the AGF. I bought it before orf was available. I’d noticed they shared the same case and bracelet but it’s inferior to vsf in other ways and certainly not as good as the orf.

Nope. The rep in his comparison is VSF.
Andrew has confirmed to me that all ORF's have a fixed serial number - 82050098, that's the easiest way to tell if you are not sure about the maker.

I have the same serial number as mentioned above. Plus point is that the serial numbers are the same for the movement and the case.
