any more movement pics? looks like you took the rotor offHere some pics of the case back taken of
I've fitted the strap from a VSF PO Deep Black. It fits but it's not a perfect fit out of the box. the back of the strap doesn't match the rear lip of the case so I had to stuff some additional material to prevent the strap from turning away from the case.
Using it with the VSF Ceramic Titanium deployant clasp. Below are pics to compare it with a gen DSOTM clasp.
Nice bit of kit but you can see the satinized finish of the ceramic cap isn't quite as fine or deep as the gen. The leading edge isn't as nicely rounded as gen. The polished bits however are indistinguishable.
Biggest tell with the VSF:

Gen

At this stage I’m thinking SBF / VSF are done with this model. The 2 we have is it.
I may have to get rid of the Titanium because I'm liking the way these rubber straps look much more.

Not a bad effort there. The Ali strap is just slightly too short in height to match the lug curvature. Ultra deep is a thick bastard.
I was thinking a rubber strap for mine for a while but I’ve grown to love the metal strap now.
How is your screw in crown going ? Has it stripped yet ?

this is not correct, the Ploprof was a huge success from the beginning, so much so that Torobravo the dealer commented that he got mad at the Ploprof from so many that he sold, it was selling like hot cakes. if you look in the history of the thread ploprof had many pages and this does not have many, I lived those days

saw Bruce Williams' PO Ultra Deep video and was inspired to throw the watch back on the bracelet. This watch is a beast and so much fun to wear!
Sometimes I look down at this watch and wonder what it it had the lacquer dial that the gen has that makes the gradient pop so much more. Has anyone tried sourcing a gen dial to swap?

I have been able to see the gen and the SBF of this model and I can confirm that it is an excellent rep.
The visual defects are the color of the gen titanium is darker and the dial is a bit but this depends on the lighting, but very subtle.
Come on, for the price of the gen and its complexity to obtain it, it is a very, very good replica in my opinion.
As the wise Legend says, there is no perfect rep

It’s is a great rep. Case . Strap, movement, overall weight and feel, lume are excellent. Bezel action is a little bit light and not tactile enough but easily fixed with some dental floss. As I’ve mentioned numerous times, biggest issue with this watch and many other VSF seamasters is the tube and crown quality. Basically rubbish and almost always strip with regular use.
Regardless I’m still enjoying mine and plan on keeping it for quite some time.
