does anyone see any issues with this specture from Geektime? I had the hardest time getting good QC photos from him but alignment and everything seems ok imo. Does the clasp look and bezel look also? I know those are known issues. Thanks in Advance.
heres some more photos including a good video showing the bezel. Any help would be appreciated!

Sorry I double posted there. In one of your pictures, between the 11 o clock and 1 o clock on the watch the bezel ridges seemed to be chipped.

Gotcha, did you have a look at the last photo, i dont see any defect at all.
Ah, you’re right. It must have been the light in some of the photos. Looks good to me, I’d green light it!

22mm is the one I'm using on mine and was recommended to me by the boutique.

Seems pretty clear from reading this forum and reddit, the current bracelet and clasp are of interior quality compared to previous versions. Dissapointed however I'll probably still gl this watch as I still love the style.
Does anyone know of any aftermarket options that could be fitted?
I believe the lugs are 21mm

Thought this might be useful for someone, some QC Videos:

The new clasp

Video of the seconds hand movement, which is possibly an issue in this watch.
Mine looks ok so going to GL this one.

what in particular seem to be the shortcomings of the current version of the bracelet and clasp?

Oof, brutal. This was on my buy-next list but looks like I'll be skipping it until VSF can properly source the bracelet and clasp from V1.
I was going to suggest to try swapping the clasp from the SMP300 but that doesn't address how janky that bracelet looks. You can drive a monster truck through those links.
