Here are a couple of dial comparisons. Unless you're scrutinizing @ 20x you can't detect a difference in the VSF 126610 dial and a genuine dial. And I'm sure gens can vary a bit as well.

Same with the black 126610LN bezel. It's virtually identical to the gen, including sputter coated engraving and not paint. The numbers will not wash out with solvents or acetone.

Hi Everyone,
I am really interested to buy the latest version of 904L VSF VS3135 116610. Checked with 2 trusted dealers and they mentioned that the VSF factory is closed with no sight of opening.
Do you know any TD who can source one for me?

I’d give it up. You won’t find a VSF through a TD. Maybe in the M2M section but you’re one of a million

You can go on reddit and ask who has one, but tell them you will pay $3000 for it. Its the only way to get one right now. Or you can get a 116610 from another factory that would look still great and save your self time and frustration when you do pay $3k for a VSF and then once you do get it you will see its a fake VSF and you got ripped off. Check with a TD which factories make a 116610 and just get the ones that YOU think looks closest to photos you can get online. Thats your best bet. VSF still wasnt as good as the R Factory.

I gradually read the forum and thank you for the comparison.

I've read enough and I think VSF can't be found and maybe good choice is CF? if necessary, correct me if I'm wrong.

Will there be a 904L bracelet for the 116600?
