You can use the VS SEL / lwt it on the watch, so fitment is rop notch. Clasp is another thou, but the uncoe logo luckily looks like a fancy OMEGA logo

So you swap the faults on the bracelet for the fault on the clasp... I don't know if this upgrade is worth it ;-)You can use the VS SEL / lwt it on the watch, so fitment is rop notch. Clasp is another thou, but the uncoe logo luckily looks like a fancy OMEGA logo
But everyone has to decide for themselves ;-)
Correctly, thats why we all chose different factories for different watches. Some are more pedantic on better SELs, some on better xtals, or some on better rehaut polish or whatever. In MY (and only my) honest opinion, the bracelet gives the watch a completely different look.
More 3d and not so flat like the other Aqua Terra bracelets. The clasp logo of "Uncle Straps" is such a minor difference to Omega, for me it does not gets close to the difference of the bracelet which is kind of a president bracelet.
The only thing they’re missing is some form of quick adjust. The quality is top notch.Correctly, thats why we all chose different factories for different watches.

The Omega-Quick-Adjust is rubbish ... so this point is perfectly ok ;-)
BRACELET is WRONG. I wrote it in capital because it is not even a flaw, it is an obvious ignorance! Audacity of VSF here is unbelievable. It is a huge difference. There is no such omega spec. People here talks about minute details and vsf is famous of its attention to detail in rolex, but god what is this horrendous attitude in omega?
I have no idea what this is buddy, could not find a way to find it, could you help me out
You don´t know the newest hottest shit on the internet? It´s called Google!
You are fucking late to the party mate. But you seem more kind of ignorant when not even motivated to google a strapmaker and also read the thread before posting. The bracelet isue was discusses.

Shame on me, i searched the forum on mobile only. You are totally right to roast me lol.
I was not criticizing forum folk, i was criticizing VSF. What i meant was your customers are looking at minute details, is this what you can do VSF? It seems like i should not post while being jet-lag.

I picked one up. I don't care , I'll give it a shot
I'll look at this. Also, thanks for pointing me to this thread. I totally missed it.
I'll review it when I get it. I needed a summer watch so I had the dealer waiting for this release. Bought sight unseen, rofl.

Looking forward to a review, this dial in genuine simply is a beauty. The bracelet makes a massive difference in optics and wearability. Uncle straps bracelets, for me, are less sharp than genuine Omega bracelets, at least the three I had till now.

Love the dial, but I am no reference (colorblind). I cant see shades correctly and what others tell me it is to bright.This is what is released and on the way to me.
But a beauty anyway.
Please don't get me wrong. The VSF is a beautiful watch and if you don't mind the flaws, it's certainly a great summer watch. But not only the strap, but also the colour of the dial is pretty off. The Gen has a ‘teal’ colour with strong green tones, while the VSF has rather strong blue tones. This looks more like "tiffany" than like "teal". But mabye the difference in the metal with different lighting conditions is not quite so bad.
I definitely think the lighting has a lot to do with it. Wish we could see both side by side in natural sunlight.Please don't get me wrong.
