Friends, I wanted to buy a 126610 LN, but with VSF closed you have to think of a good alternative.
I had thought green maker had a good rep, but I think it too is closed, so what to buy?
BP 124060/126610 doesn't seem like a good alternative to me.

The best option is wait. The VSF isn’t better by a small margin - its better by a lot.

hello friends, look what happened to me with my new 41mm 3235 VSF watch !! The crown of the closure has come off without further ado .. in fact she has fallen alone and I lost it while I was walking .. Has something similar happened to someone? I have bought several watches from noob and VSF and it had never happened to me .. any ideas? Thanks!

Man it happened to me as well!!!!!! Now waiting for a replacement clasp but nonews from factory

Man it happened to me as well!!!!!! Now waiting for a replacement clasp but no news from factory. I also had to pay for a new clasp even if I complained it broke easily the second time I used the watch ( for me it was a defect )

One key difference Manuel's says oggi which I presume means today.

Yours is 2nd May?

If you could kindly confirm with li today it tomorrow. Then that would be amazing.

You would be a king wearing a crown whereas I would still be trying to a order watch with "one".

Perhaps you can try Aliexpress?

Can't be more true, just wait as VSF is now one step up the other factories.
Here is latest 114060 to keep you waiting :

Everyone is waiting for VSF to open up, but I have some reservations that the quality could shift after a raid. What if a supplier changed or a machine got taken and replaced with something different?
This, of course, is coming from someone with no experience in the industry. It's just what my mind goes to when I imaging a gray-market operation getting raided.

Your concerns are 100% valid for a factory after a raid. For instance, It happen with ZF year.

Well, it seems that VSF is almost back with it's subs, yachts and datejusts, read a post on Reddit by an exceptional contributor of the rep game.

Spoke with trusty this morning: VSF and XF still closed with no date in sight for reopening :(
