I would have to agree with you on this. I think it is even better than my VSF 11 series that I also have.

Different crystal.

The VSF 126610 crystal has AR to the inside - if you hold it in the sunlight you will see there are no multiple reflections of the indices and hands bouncing around. It also has the correct corresponding AR LEC.

The 116610 does not have AR - and this is as it should be.

Are you all serious? It was a JOKE. Never heard about sarcasm? Nobody is able to measure 0,000012 mm, even me. You are all discussing about flaws on SELs. Which flaws?.. for me there is nothing. Looks gen-like. Or something like "fit and finish". What is this fu... "fit and finish"? Since 159 pages i've tried to understand - with no success.

My "ten" just a flaw, that i recognize.. am i allowed?

Just checked mine, seems even worse. The 10 and 40 engravings are 0,00016 mm closer to the inner side while the 30 is 0,00015mm closer to the outer side. How could VSF fuck that up so badly? HUGE TELL FROM ACROSS THE ROOM.

On a serious note, mate. Are you actually aware that many semiconductor devices are still produced in the feature size you're talking about?

Ok.. i lknow, that its just a rep. And i have enough brain to understand, that i would not get the same quality, as 9.000,00 Euro gen.

I really didn't expect that quality... and i love it.

I just asked about the possibility of changing bezel... like many of you guys changing chrystal or hands.

My friend.
First of all , gen parts are currently very difficult to find if not impossible. We're talking about a watch released in September.
Then if you want to spend on mods , well , everyone does what he wants. There are about 2.700 posts and in all of them you can read that this watch is fine , take it and wear it.
I'll give you a small account of the mods:

1) Gen full Bezel 3,450 Euro
2) Gen Dial 1,400 Euros
3) Gen Xtal 450 Euro
4) Hands Set 600 Euro
5) Gen DWO 150 Euro (3135 latest model it's ok)
For the prices I have my sources........ ;)

So you would spend around 6.000 Euro for a Franken or more or less 3.000 for basic mods....?
For me it's just crazy thinking. It remains my personal opinion.... :)

I forgot to write something.
Without thinking badly of anyone , but it is a discussion I had on the phone with a friend of mine who owns a Rolly Dealer in Italy about a gen xtal for me.
This watch version , for those who do not have a perfect knowledge of Rolly models , is a drama. It would be enough to replace the Balance Wheel and bridge , change the gems of the caliber 'cause they have a different color, change the crystal , adjust the coupling angle SEL and with BOX and PAPER it is a moment to fool many people.
So if a person who has been working for Rolly for around 35 years says this is , 'cause the VSF is indeed almost perfectly crafted.
I apologize if my English sucks.

Punk_Boy I think I understand you correctly, and I would agree that it's so well crafted. Someone might WANT to change something, but they don't NEED to change anything. You go to a job interview with the president of Rolex wearing one of these watches and not have to worry!

This kills any Rolex sub rep I’ve owned. I’ve owned so many too. If snag one now before a v2 appears and something changes for the worse

When I got mine I thought of this... I had bought so many watches lately... but why wait for a V2 and find out that they screwed something, lol :p

That will make him SO happy to know you struggled to get it at the dealership! It will prove your dedication to the brand and you'll get the job. And once you're a Rolex executive, I hope you'll remember your friends back at RWI. Maybe you can send us those hard-to-get parts! :D

Guys,

I have recently purchased a gen 126610 LV. If anyone knows who is selling a VSF 126610lv or can lend me his watch, let me know.

I wanted to make some comparison pictures for the community.

I ordered the LV 48 hours after my LN arrived. They are incredible reps.

VSF doesn’t play those games. They usually don’t screw things up.I highly doubt we will see v2 of this model anytime soon as it’s nearly perfect. They may do silent upgrade from batch to batch but there won’t be any major upgrade.

I second this, vsf would probably do a couple of silent releases judging but the numerous batch differences from the previous lv models where i see better rehaut and different clasp and bracelet quality over time
