Since the issue of Rehaut was brought my, here is a photos from my QC and let you guys decide for yourself. Personally in my opinion, it is a little off. Will it stop me from getting the watch? Most likely not.

I’d add more, but I know excessive QC are frowned on and my pics are over the 5mb limit.

I placed an order with Eric as soon as I saw this release and just got my QCs. I went ahead and ordered to compare to the new CF version. I should have it in hand in a couple of weeks.

Hey oceon.

Have you received your VSF yachmaster yet? Can you compare with CF!

That looks gorgeous. The only problem with these is always the bad quality of the plating.

I have not. It usually takes about 12-16 days to get here. Its been 8 since it shipped out on the 20th.

Yeah, you can get the plating redone. TBH, NIkz does amazing everose plating, so if you were going that route, just get the better version between Clean and VSF and get it plated and it will look gen-like.

I just got mine today. I wish the bracelet came in a slightly smaller size. If they had D + F that would have been preferred for my 6.5inch wrist. The E+F feels a bit loose.

Can someone offer any suggestions how to go abouts finding a D&F sized oyster flex bracelet that would fit this model? Is it a 20mm sized bracelet that I’m looking for?

Reach out to a TD? I have placed on order for this piece and was told it could be supplied with D+E. May not be VSF but not sure…

are there any gens vs VSF comparison? Would love to see how the VSF color compares to gen.

It's shit but it can be resolved with plating or with a silvo polish (which you can find information on here, but do so at your own risk).

Hi guys, I’ve bought this vsf version. Does anyone know where I can get it replated, I reached out to Nikz but it seems he no longer offers the everose plating. Any recommendations would be appreciated.
