Yes the SELs are 21mm. The bracelet is tapered of course.

East factory bezel insert installed

 

[TheNickGuy]

Liam F , curious as to why you made a change to the bezel insert?

 

[bertieng]

What's so great about the East Factory insert over to that of the VSF's?

 

[Liam F]

I broke the VSF insert and struggled to source a VSF replacement so went fo the East Factory. I can't notice any difference on the wrist between the 2. Using an eye loop the platinum paint does look a crisper on the East Factory. I would say a marginal improvement but perhaps not worth the cash.

Lucky man, enjoy. I’ve been waiting for my 126610LN to come back from the watch smith for a while now. It’s more than I’ve missed most people.

Does anyone know or heard anything regarding if VSF is going to release a 124060 anytime soon?

CF is excellent. I see no difference in mine and VSF.

Which model VSF are you using as a reference? thanks for the response!

Good for you to have this perception. Keep enjoying your CF watches

I have a couple of VSF 126610s.
I acquired a genuine 3230 movement and ordered a CF 124060 just to get the dial so I could add the dial and gen movement to a vsf watch. Once I compared the cf and vsf side by side I could see no difference between them, so I put the gen movement into the CF. At that time they did have a crystal with a weird bevel that I changed, but in later models fixed that. It appears the cases, dials, and bezels all come from the same place as vsf.

Is it just me, or is the rehaut a bit deep on the VSF’s?

However it would be nice with a VS3230 movement instead of the VR if one doesn’t want to source a gen movement
Even if the VR3230/VR3235 is convenient with sharing parts with 3135 movement

How is the lume compared between CF and VSF? Have seen some CFs with poor lume on hands

Hello folks
Looking for a no date vsf submariner
anyone know which TD has them in stock. Usually use Andrew at trusty but he doesn’t have. I know I’m going to get some heat for asking but I can’t find the info!
