The VSF Submariners Thread

[StreetFighter]

did you just get this?

This batch seems like the older ones which were replaced about 2 months ago. the new inserts have a thinner pip bezel

Sead buys stock and keeps it in the UK ready to ship. So if you want an older (batch 15, sector Y) model, then Sead is the best guy to ask. The other TD's will buy the watch from the factory/agent when the order is placed so if you want most recent update then best to ask Trustytime or Jtime etc.

12 series wears bigger.

11 series is the better watch for a smaller wrist.

11 series VSF is the better replica watch, it’s closer to gen.

best buy.. 11 hulk, 12 LN.

Cheers for all the valuable information in this thread. I am also thinking about buying a Sub, but I still cannot decide if I should go with the 126610LN or 116610LN.

What about their movements, the VS3135 versus the VS3235, is there a difference in terms of reliability or build quality? I did not find this information, sorry if it's already been discussed. I just read that the Gen 3235 makes more noise than 3135.

Thanks.

If reliability is your thing I would choose 3135. Even in gen it's a proven workhorse whereas the 3235 has some issues as a newer movement and I believe the rep 3235 has a week part in it according to kj2020

What do you mean "it's good"? What's your specific concern?

Sorry it's good and recent batch they have upgrades?
Many thanks.

Many thanks.

If it’s what you ordered and you can’t identify any faults it’s good.

I have a VSF on the way. As in tune as I am with the rep game, I have zero idea how to get gen parts…

Would anyone be able to guide me into getting a gen dial and hands somehow?

Thank you

Hi,

Received my QC pics today, the watch looks really nice, however there is one detail on the clasp that has me a little unsure and that is the gap above the crown, looks a little crooked in the photo. Since no QC photos are allowed here, I wanted to ask if one or the other would be so kind to post a picture of his clasp so I can compare. Would be really nice

 

[leo6929]

In your case, you can post the pictures for your specific concerns, no biggie, that is allowed.

 

[SuRo]

Ok.

@zak133
looks more accurate

I decided to go for the VSF 126610. Now I heard that VSF does black better then other colors. Is the 126610LN all black a better rep then the 126610LV? All black if the safer choice no doubt and could see how the green would be harder to replicate accurately and also could make the watch seem "cheaper". Also heard some reports that the LV actually uses a different bracelet attachment then the LN, like a plastic quick attachment release instead of metal with the LN bracelet. Any feedback on the ln vs lv for the 12 series of VSF?

Report of diff bracelet

 

[GrandmasterChime]

I have the lv. Good watch but definitely not as accurate as plain black

Hi does anyone know if the 114060 has a laser etched crown on the crystal @6 o'clock?
