I’m in the predicament of pretty much everyone else.

Either wait on the assumption these are filtering through because VSF is slowly starting back up or pull the trigger now because they really are the last

Really unsure. Would love via Hont but not at $888. Not buying via Trusty.

Can’t VSF just come back and sell them to us for $500?

Why, what happened? I buy from trusty, he's my first choice. I only go elsewhere if he can't help, never let me down.

I’m just going on other peoples opinions

I’ve never actually copped anything myself yet. I’m waiting to pick up my first, that hopefully a VSF 126610

Andrew is highly recommended and he will get you a VSF126610, if you are quick. Also, if you are in the UK, he is the easiest TD to pay. Just select bank transfer and you'll get 5% off and a UK acc to send payment to, dead easy.

How do I contact Andrew, is it through trusty time?

Sorry for the stupid question, i'm new here.

Yes Andrew is Trustytime

Thank you. Tried the link to the trustytime webpage via the TD section here. Did not work on two different browsers. Anyone experience the same?

Are they actually VSFs though. Some on Reddit saying they’re an amalgamation

As for the movement, VS3235s have an extra jewel on the auto wind module that other clone movements don't have. They also have a shock jewel (cap jewel and spring) for the escape wheel while other movements have a standard jewel without the shock spring and cap jewel. And the VS movements accept all gen parts including the balance which other movements do not. The back must be opened and a close inspection made.

I'm not a big stickler for cgs, but those definitely look different between those two watches

ZF have best case set dwo color index and hands..oh and crystal is better…but this is only my opinion..
Vsf is awesome watch..but prefer ZF….

ZF has a beautiful Hulk!

Gotta disagree on case though, the VS case is much more accurate to gen & bezel insert is exactly the same between the two.

Only benefit is the darker dial color.
