Thanks a lot for this comparison and your other post comparison, so good!! I was curious if you have noticed any difference in the tone of the metal on the VSF in terms of how it hits the light etc? Does the bracelet pop the same as your gen?
Some times I get the feeling my bracelet feels a little dull compared to my Steinhart but I don't have a gen 116610 to compare to, it could just be my mind trying to find fault! lol.

flyinhawaiian KRF looks super close! Dial color and font thickness seem a tad bit different but could be due to lighting.

Nice. How is the quality and feel compared to the Tudor?

The font thickness is actually spot-on on the KRF imo but it's just not as 'raised' as the gen.
Quality is great. The KRF bracelet feels just like the gen straight out of the box and would be indistinguishable from gen if it were not for the screw pins. (For some reason the pins on the gen bracelet aren't as flush as the pins on the KRF, which is the only tell)
I am not too much into Tudor do you mind telling which one is gen? I suspect due to description left one is krf and the right one is gen?
Yeah I guess that too, not an expert though, but for me the lugs shapes rest the case.
Not an easy rep to tell without the Gen at the side.

Left is actually gen haha. It is pretty hard to tell without both in hand

I thought right was gen too until you mentioned the raised text haha.
Is the dial color close enough on the rep? I have very small wrist and BB36 may just be my next rep

Dial color is very close but of course being a rep it is not 100% perfect. It's hard to describe but the KRF seems a tiny bit 'less vibrant' in low indirect light. On the wrist/in normal lighting conditions it is pretty indistinguishable though.
Where are the pandas, Smurfs, pam960, side by side pcs??? someone must own rep and gen of these models...right?
In this thread, we can post pics of reps with their genuine counterpart, side by side.
First up a VSF super rep:
VSF116610 -v- Genuine
Out the box, no mods on this rep.
Can you post a link on where to purchase this watch?
