I just want a sub that looks as real as possible for the least money same as everyone and didn't think it would be this hard to find out which to go get ! I give up ,,, Ive spent more time chatting shit in this forum than I thought I'd have to when the group is full of so called experience and expertise ! And no qled is better than oled and why all good company's needing a good screen go to Samsung including apple for their phones !!! And I own an oled and it's brilliant but I also own a Samsung and side by side the Samsung wins and can be found cheaper !!!!! See how easy that was anyone that's been answering in fucking riddles and won't say go buy this or that ! Honestly don't know what the fuck you lot do in here if you can't say one clone is better than another and advise someone on atleast a couple to look at ! Peace out

It's not hard to find, it's just that you don't want to listen to anyone here and you don't want to read anything, you just want to be told what's best, which you've been explained is a question that doesn't make sense.this is not talking in riddles, if you don't want to understand that things are a little different from what you had imagined and listen to people with a little more experiebce than you who tell you how to go about it, then yes you're not gonna find what you're looking for here.
I peoposed a deal to you, which you tried to be smart about, but as soon as you realized that you needed to spend like an hour reading a couple of threads you gave up. Sorry but if you don't have time, neither do members here to prepare a nice little summary for you.
The 2 Clean factories you have mentioned are good rep, you'll lilely be happy with any of these. Now is it going to best solution for you? Back to square 1, only you can tell
I disagree Samsung makes the best TV, I have a Sony which I feel blows samsung out of the water for comparative model/pricing.
See how everyone has differing opinions?
Speaking of this, I prefer the VSF 114060 over the CF version (aka I can accept the VSF flaws better) Unfortunately JTime is out of the VSF, well lets hope the next release from VSF would be an even better version

do you guys trust the waterproofing of VSF straight from factory? Trusty told me it had a waterproof test done by the factory but should i wear in shower/pool or it it going to break?

Never, you might get lucky but youay also ruin a nice rep. Better to always get them tested, won't cost you much and then you'll be safe

I've bought a dozen VSF's and each one I checked has had a loose caseback, only finger tight. So no, don't trust it. Once it has been tightened there's a good chance it'll be waterproof for a few meters a least enough to shower or swim..but it might not. Check your casebacks folks.
After I bought mine I was to the watchsmith leaving it for full service, while there he opened the case back and I can tell you it required some force to open the case and this with proper casenack opener tool for Rollie , definitely not finger tight.
However still don't trust to get this in the water more than a shower, have other watches 300mt that I can swim/dive with
It is also VERY important to put some silicone grease on the gaskets the caseback and the crown

Yes. It is, gen with no stickers as it has been well worn over the years.

This pic shows another gen vs rep thing that has seen not a lot of discussion. The gen markers / hands are white gold so they look most of the times bronze vs the rep markers being always silver / white.
Yup, as with all of rolexes gold. They have a slight yellowish tinge or shimmer to them. Harder to spot on hands and indices due to smaller surface areas and lighting conditions. More obvious on surfaces such as the dj41 fluted bezel.

If you are looking for the almost best modern rep Rollies, honestly VSF is the only way to go despite there are strong contenders like CF and ZF
I received my CF bracelet for my 126610LN today and it does have slightly better SELs, and better clasp with smaller gap. Very minor improvements, but exactly what I was looking for.
My VSF bracelet and a 21mm Jubilee will be listed for sale soon on the forum, PM me if interested.

Finally my litte VSF franken.
AWO clasp from my GMF 116610, closer to gen than 7GJ.
Gen hands, really the 3D effect is a Big difference.
Lumen of gen hands and VSF dial is just the same.
