So now that the Clean 40mm has been released-what would be the consensus? VSF or Clean? With my luck, I'm afraid that my TD would source me the only 40mm VSF left with the wrong crown....

I cannot speak for the VSF, but the Clean that just arrived is incredible ...

Oh, I thought he added the VSF to the post, I guess not.

@Reaps Any thought on VSF amd CF 40 Explorer? They now both have correct crowns. I am torn between the two. If they are both visually excellent, I might get VSF for a better movement.

I got CF 36 Explorer after reading your comments on this model. Couldn't be happier. 🤩

Thanks in advance.

I haven't really paid attention to the 40mm Explorer but my advice still stands, whichever one you can get for cheaper, because to me they look the same :ROFLMAO: , I'm sure there are nuances

I would lean Clean in general always but you can't go wrong with either me thinks.

If VS just make sure you REALLY pay attention to that crown!

This rep looks great now with the updated crown. Are going to order one soon.
Does anyone know if the glidelock clasp from a 12-series sub will fit the explorer bracelet?

Not sure, but if no one answers, I'll have an Explorer I here soon and see if a clasp from a 124060 fits. I could be wrong, but I don't see why it wouldn't.

Edit: nvm I didn't read properly. I thought this was the explorer II thread

Based on this analysis, I fully reccomend Clean.

VSF case and bracelet taper is wrong yet once again.
