I can say that the dial marker's lume is white enough in this QC pic. However, I can still spot a difference on the dial and hand lume color. The lume on the hand looks greenish while the dial is white. Is this normal on the gen or this is vsf trying to finish their imperfect hands batch?

That’s a shame the mismatch lume issue is still present. I’ve been waiting for this batch to finish before ordering. :(

I had this VSF diver and sold it because of the greenish hour markers. It drove me crazy. Unfortunately it's even more noticeable in real life than on a picture.

It's really strange, because the hour markers on the VSF Planet oceans are pure white.

But still nice a nice watch, especially the red gold one. Congrats!

It’s a rep. Flaws are normal. It looks great, though.

How is the watch holding up? I've ordered the same and on my QC pictures the hand lume is also a bit yellowish/greenish compared to the hour markers. Would be interested in your experience :)

Just received this Seamaster 300m 2019 YG/SS/RU Black VSF from Andrew at Trusty Time and very happy with it.

Timeline:
  • Jan 15, 2021 - made the order to the Trusty Time web-site and got an order confirmation email with paying instructions.
  • Jan 17, 2021 - made the wire transfer
  • Jan 19, 2021 - got the payment confirmation email
  • Jan 27, 2021 - got QC pics. All was looking great. However I thought I saw a tiny weird dot on the bezel, so I asked for more pics.
  • Feb 01, 2021 - got more pics. Was very satisfied and confirmed I was happy with it.
  • Jan 07, 2021 - got an email with the DHL tracking number
  • Feb 15, 2021 - got the watch :)
Seller Review (10/10)

The communication with Andrew from Trusty Time was great. Andrew was very responsive and helpful and I will definitely continue doing business with him.

Watch Review

Accuracy (10/10)
  • The watch is spot on for the last 5 days, performing at (+- 1 second per day). AMAZING!!!
Similar to origin (10/10)
  • I've seen the origin only on YouTube videos and not in person, but to me, it is 100% identical.
  • Size and Thickness are exactly like the origin (an OMF Seamaster I own is 1mm thicker than VSF)
Bezel Action (9/10)
  • The bezel is centered "spot-on" with 120 clicks
  • Very minor (almost unnoticeable) back play
  • Bezel's action is good, however not as good as the original. I can tell this with confidence since I have "played" with the original bezel for a blue Seamaster.
  • Gorgeous black ceramic bezel insert with gold engraving
Dial & Hands (10/10)
  • Loom is great
  • The hour markers and hands are simply beautiful
  • The black sunburst dial is absolutely stunning
  • The hands look perfect
Satisfaction (10/10)

Overall I am highly satisfied. This piece is my new favorite in the collection!


Pictures

Here are some pics for everyone to enjoy!

The pics with the white background are some of
the QC pics sent to me by Andrew, and the other pics are the ones I took.

First time post here. Love/hate this forum! Because I just ordered four rep from Li after finding this place... *sigh*

One of the piece that I ordered is the SMP that I read from here. I rejected the first QC from Li noticing mis-aligning of the bezel with the Dial (I saw that on another thread here!, love you guys)

I’ve had mine for a while now and love it... except.
either I stripped the threads on the crown or in the tube, because I can’t get the crown to screw down now.
Currently trying to find someone that might be able to fix it.
