As mentioned before the color of the lume on camera really depends on which kind of camera you're using and if you look closely at the video you posted you can see that the lume has different colors, they're just not as noticeable due to the camera used.

Always take the lume shot from td's with a grain of salt. White balance on cameras aleays fuck up the lume. I got a wc from my dealer where the hamds appeared green and dial markers blue and the end it was all the same color.

Couldn't agree more lol, had a seamaster with yellow lume on qc pics but when it arrived it was just white

Biggest flaw is still the logo. It is off centered :(

Didn’t notice it until you pointed it out. Ah well, already GL so not gonna fret about it. It’s not as noticeable as on the Diver 300m ceramic logo misalignment so I think I can live with it!

Oh hmm..... It doesn't look off-centered to me.

A few things I noticed about this VSF release in general (Not referring to anyone's specific QC pics)

1. CG looks better when compared to the 2018 Seamaster VSF v2
2. Lume markers still look a bit too domed (gen sits more flat)
3. Looks like the metal bracelet hasn't been updated

Yea, you gotta reaaaally look for it which is why I missed it initially. I don’t think it’s a big deal given it’s a v1. It’s small enough a gap that unless I’m zooming in it isn’t that noticeable.

If you look up gen pics of seamaster, many gens have this misalignment. My 2018 VSF v2 also is misaligned but I didn't notice until I took a macro shot of it lol.

Mines ordered and I cannot wait for this one. Had the white vsf seamaster twice, sold the first one, missed it so bought another, then I decided I wanted an aqua Terra so sold my second one, bought an aqua Terra, owned it for a week or two and got bored, hardly wore it, so sold it... Now here I am buying another vsf omega. Like vsf and the stuff they are making and I'm not overly fussy. When it comes to reps I wear them and don't worry at all about them. If something happens to it then at least it wasn't the gen. Often a tenth of the price of gen or better makes me feel like I'm winning somehow. I'll post images once it arrives hopefully beat the holiday season and it ships soon. Also I've declined the opportunity to QC. I ain't got time for that sh1t!

Beautiful piece. Little bit more feminine than say the ceramic and titanium version I have been wearing for some time but that’s not a bad thing. Looks pretty.

Here are some real life pics for information.

It’s an omega yacht master. Lol

I like the fact that microtome videos the watch and looks at it , some TDS offer appalling qc pics , marker misaligned, lug pins sticking out on nautilus, they must be sick of having to much of money to bother then offer the same watch again trying it on I’ll look into his site

So glad VSF produced a rep of this so quickly. Love at first sight when i chanced upon this watch in an article. Curious so see how accurate the case back design is to the gen. And also, does the VSF bezel look off color to the gen, anyone?
