Is the TC sub not based on a 5 digit sub?

If you can get your hands on that one would be nice right ?

Sorry guys, I can’t find it anywhere. I know I read a thread regarding the clean V4 and how it’s different than the V4 installed in the latest VSF hulk. The clean V4 available from TD is different right? The pearl and platinum only?

Yep. VS has better platinum fill and pearl. But both have same color as they are both a CF product.

Very nice, when I see a TC it's always an enjoyable moment. Those things are gorgeous.

Will the bezel platinum fade on my VSF?

No, it will not!

Here is a daily worn for over a year beside a new/worn a few hours watch..

..literally no difference whatsoever.

VSF platinum fill for the win!

What factory are these watches ?

Thanks buddy (and wolfkissed). Here is a little TC porn for you…

TC was the only 5 digit Sub to ever get the case and crown guards right. What an amazing basis for a 1:1 Franken (which this is, work in progress) these are.

This ended up costing me small fortune after the watch I traded it for got nicked in the post and I had to pay to resolve that, then import taxes too etc.. it was worth the expense though.

Take a picture with no direct light in a darker environment to really get the answer we’re looking for.

Under direct sun they all look brand new.

CF ones fade badly and quickly but you cannot see it at direct light.

How much is gold is in a VSF126613..

There is about 15-23g of gold in a two tone Rolex depending on the model.
The price of gold today is $1890 per oz/28g.

So.. how much gold is in my gold VSF?

None. Nothing, not a molecule of gold/Au, not a single milligram.

It has gold colour plate, that'' all. It's not even an accurate gold colour, its crap, dark yellow/orange, avoid VSF gold unless you intend to have it replated with real gold.
