Hi guys. i got my VSF Submariner 114060LN No Date at today. It has amazing visual. Just bezel getting hard between 30-20 min. Can one repairman fix it or not? Lume is so good also.

And how do we sure its a VSF Sub? Im so rookie about this topic. Im uploading photos.

And how do we know; its a K25 or 2R5 guys?

The engraving on rehaut @ 6 o'clock position, you will see a serial number.

If new, can I ask who the supplying dealer was as I've been trying to find one of these.

Seller was asian7750. And yes i saw it thx. its a: K25Y0595. So is it Vsf sub? Agree? And that K25 code about VSF factory or directly Rolex numbering system or what?

 

[Art Vandelay]

Yes VSF sub.

K25 rehaut, 7GJ bracelet.

Edit: If you are buying from the TD section here you will get the right watch. They are trusted for a reason.

Watch out for fake mirror sites of the same name.

Also to answer your other question, the VSF serials are generic per batch. So all 114060LNs made around that time will have the same engraving. It is not unique to each piece as per R factory.

The VSF Yachtmaster looks just as good on a simple black leather strap.

The etched crown at 6 o’clock looks to really stand out. Shouldn’t this be barley visible not showing up on pictures.

I guess it would depends on the angle, lighting and any image processing / adjustments you've made.

Have a flick through this thread and see how many examples you can find that have the lec visible if you look for it

First example is on page 1.

You guys with the new watches: how is the bracelet?

Is it..

A. Silky smooth and high quality feeling with a smooth glidelock

or..

B: Sharp edged, stiff and unlubricated with a cheap gritty feeling glidelock

Please let me know how your bracelet feels and which watch you have (11, 12, SS, Gold).



To the man above with the gold watch talking of replating.. If your bracelet is sharp edged you should ideally have it refinished before you have it replated.

Hopefully I’ll have my vsf “12” within the next 10 days. QC all look awesome with it showing +/-3. The clasp shows 3vv so it’s the latest, hopefully best version to date.
