Rumors or not, VSFs are one of the most amazing rep offerings in years. If they are really gone forever it will take sometime for the rest of the factories to catch up.

Apart from the lies the VSF cyclops tells at certain angles and very apparent in your picture ……

Hi All,
Is the VS3235 gone forever is there the possibility of a different factory making the movement ?

Thank you !

I'm sure something will come up. The know-how and business case was there. It may take some months and 2-3 releases to have something of the same quality, is my bet.

Interesting thread. Who knows if VSF will return. I tend to find a lot of people (correct me if I'm wrong) who claim that a certain factory was much better than what it was after it closes. Not saying it is this time around.

If one was going to purchase 116610 then I see JVS and clean on the same par as VSF. Then after these two, ZF or VVSF coming closely behind.

On 124060 or 114060 then clean is the nest choice.

If VSF was that great, then help me understand how clean falls short.

They may look the same to you but Clean case has wrong CG’s and Clean build quality can be poor. Screw the crown or spin the bezel on a clean and a VSF you’ll see the difference. One feels like a toy watch/$500 replica, the other feels pretty much like a Rolex/well finished high end luxury product.

Great thanks for the insight! It's always hard to tell in pics as I haven't had the clean in hands

Today I received VSF HULK which maybe the last one sold by TD.
And fortunately this is the very good one, having well aligned ‘R’ on rehaut.

Can you elaborate? What R needs to be aligned?
