Actually the whole watch look great.

It's not engraved. It's embossed and polished.

To me, watching the video, it looks engraved and polished...

For me, after watching both videos, the dial is correct like gen.

Look at the dial:

TD’s are only receiving a small portion of their orders for now.

It's pretty damn good. I'm nitpicking, but the OMEGA font is a little thinner. I'm not sure I would call it a deal breaker.

Some flaws I see (all from picture comparison, i know it is not the best, but no one have the rep yet, so... ) :

1) bezel dots looks flat (cloud be the light, need to see more pics) - major

2) perl looks small - major

3) I'm not sure about the hands "brush" effect (need closer images), I think i should be "deeper" - minor

4) not sure about the dial effect (need to see a video) - if true, major

5) wrong thickness? (should be 13mm or 15mm i think, it is hard to find reliable info about it) - if correct, major

6) not sure about the font (looks different, however, i'm not an export on fonts) - medium after watching pt video i think this is ok

7) crown guard is shorter - minor

8) seconds hand pin is different - minor after watching pt video i think this is ok

9) back lugs engraving should be black (not silver) - minor after watching pt video, they are black



And even with all these flaws, I'm gonna order this one...

GEN is 43,5 x 14,5mm

The unit from the video measures:

in my opinion, based on the previous pics and videos, the appreciable flaws are minor.

Just ordered from Mary. Should get QC today or tomorrow.

Welcome back! I paid as soon as my TD sent these & said "in stock".










I barely glanced at the pics and just knew; you know.

I can live with the short crown guard.

 

[Vric]

Yeah me too I ordered as soon as I saw the video of it yesterday

Nice pics, are they from the VSF version? TD?

Thanks for the pics

I like it too much

Yes, the pics are from VSF. That's their factory sticker on the face of the watch. My TD isn't listed here so I'm not sure sure if I can promote them. PM me for info if interested.

I'm wondering why VSF now uses an asian decorated movement in their latest releases instead of the clone movement used before...
I own a VSF PO GMT with their 8605 clone that's working flawlessly since January when I got it... and still wearing it everyday...

Anyone has a clue? Just an economic choice or did they discover a flaw in their cloned movements?

This watch has a single barrel 3 hand movement. no GMT, no quick hour jump, not even a datewheel. I guess it's just simpler and more reliable to use a mass produced movement
