The VSF Submariners Thread

[peterpl]

You know whats funny all these Rolex reps have come a long way since 2010 since I initially joined this rep community. Everything has improved immensely but the DW alignment is still an issue a decade on. Its VERY VERY hard to find a Rolex Rep with a perfectly aligned DW and that is the very first thing I look at these days when trying to tell the rep apart from the gen.

I dunno why its so hard for them to align the printing on the DW so its perfect. Surely this isnt hard to do when even $40 cheapo watches have perfect DW alignment.

hello everyone, I take advantage of our friend's main post to ask for advice on my hont qc photos. the dial looks good to me, even the rehaut is not exactly aligned in all points but it's fine. someone who is more attentive notices other very evident defects. it's a 14060 vsf. even the dial does not seem completely aligned, but I do not understand if it is the perspective [url=https://clickpix.org/image/IMG-6013.HoAGR2] [/URL]

Hey guys, the comparison between the gen starbucks and a modded vsf (gen xtal gasket, polished rehaut, tightened bezel, polished bezel teeth) might be interesting for you. Unfortunately I only made it in German.

It's not a 14060 - rather a 114060...

very beautiful by the way!

don't you find that even the dial is slightly off axis?! if it were up to you, would you accept it? for the rest yes, 114060

The dial is perfect, alignment is spot on. Maybe, but just maybe, the bezel is 0.6° off to the right - which is true for 49.9% of Submariners (the other 49.9% being off to the left)...

Why don't you continue reading here?

A little on QC pics.

QC pics are to satisfy YOU that the watch is OK to YOUR standards, that there are no crooked indices, missing lume, offset chrono hands etc. QC pics are not for picking tells or things that are present in every example of a model such as spelling errors, happy feet, wrong lume colour etc. These...

The purpose of QC pictures

At RWI, we're fortunate to have a few dealers who take the time to individually procure, inspect, and photograph watches for potential buyers. This has not always been the norm, and in fact, it's a recent development. Up until about two years ago, all of the dealers drop-shipped everything and...

Well, after a failed VSF 126610LV with a TD, I went with another seller. This time no official TD, but a seller with a good reputation on Reddit.
And it arrived today. I am so happy with this watch, I ordered a VSF 116610LV. I always had a NOOB Hulk.

I think I unlocked a new addiction. What's next, a Datejust?

Last weekend I bought the same!!

Good line-up, because of the forum I am now a line-up maniac.

Always had a soft spot for the YM, the 126622-0001 and 126622-0002 are my favorite. Not sure I can pull off a Daytona.

Buy a black dial 116500 on Oysterflex instead of bracelet, it's far more lowkey and subtle.

If you get a Panda itll attract attention because the white dial flashes in people's eyes

Hi memebers!
I decided to buy a 126610LN!
Which manufacturer's product is the most similar to the original?
Which one has the most beautiful and elaborate dial?
Can I find a comparison here?

Thank you!

In my opinion: VSF. Clean is also a good option. But wouldn't cheap out.
Clean uses a 3135 that is decorated as a 3235, while VSF uses a cloned 3235.

Gentlemen, need your help. I’m aware VSF upgraded and improved the crystal clarity on the 116610LN. Was it the K25 serial number batch that the crystal was updated?

Just picked up a 116610LN with a K25 serial # and it has an updated crystal in terms of no edge distortion on the date window. It also has the updated dial without the "floating m" flaw...but I had to RL 2 pieces before I got an updated dial. The date wheel sits a little low on days 1-14, but the watch is near perfect otherwise....truly incredible piece.
