Looks like the only things different from a VSF 126610LN are the crystal and dial.

It would have been a big tell if those weren’t different.

Hopefully the case number between the lugs is different, too.

I bet it says 126610 because that is what the case is from.

VSF must be suffering from a parts shortage.
Either that or Clean are cleaning up in the market lol

How does this VSF sub look?

i had vsf 126610 vsf and now 116610 vsf. i have to say that version 11 is much better.

I have one of these, the gold colour is way off. It needs replated, once done it'll be a super rep..

Did you get it replated here? How much?

 

[Yankee]

Asked for an updated pic since I wasn't sure if this is like some residue on the dial by the date or just blurriness

Is it really that bad? I don’t mind replating. Thought it looked decent. First gold watch, my favorite gold among Rolex gens. Already have three stainless watches.

i got a VSF 116610LN back in november with S39 serial. how can i tell if it has the updated/brighter bezel numbers with platinum coating? were there any updates with the k25 that the S39 was missing?

If you cant tell, who cares

well i don’t have a k25 to compare. i’ve never held a gen either so i wouldn’t be able to tell what the flaws are on a $100 chinatown rep but that doesn’t mean i’d settle for one. we’re all here to get the best rep possible for our money.

So who are you worried about? Are you scared someones going to run up to you and belittle you in public about your dim insert. Doesnt happen relax you already own it and no it would not be worth updating if by chance you didnt have the latest batch anyway.

Considering the ghost position on the crown (initial batch will be using VS3235 movement, as confirmed by TD's), I think it's best to wait for the V2 version.

I expect this to be at $540 to $570, which is well above that of the excellent VSF 114060. At that price, I think getting a rep with the incorrect movement is not worth it, imho.
