No QC, no technical problem, no help needed, not about franken
Just a pic of this wonderful watch, which this thread is about......
A contender for rep of the year this one. It's a NWBIG for sure.

I have a post raid and it's actually better than the pre raid one I had (just swapped for a TC). It's every bit as good in all respects (gen like crown thread, gen like bezel function) only this one has much better hands. Like, much much better, these are like gen.

Did I read somewhere correctly that the SEL of VSF 116 series is better built than their 126 series?

Unfortunately the case shape is very off you would need CF case but then again put a gen crystal on CF as rest is better on CF anyway.
Its' one of those things again once you see it it can't be unseen.
They trimmed it too much looks too straight, slim and not rounded.
New to this thread seems like VSF vs CF is an ongoing debate. I wanted to order a hulk and was hoping for a consensus. It's hard not to be swayed by streetfighters review I know he's not easy to please.

CF SELs are a nice upgrade imo

From this perspective seems a major upgrade. How is it front? Can you please take more pictures?

Really?
So, if I understand correctly, you are saying that VSF 126610 only has a better crystal, and everything else on the Clean 126610 is better?

You do realize the genuine is not very recessed like the 116610CF SELs are a nice upgrade imo

Yep! It’s true and I know that
I just pointed out that statement, because I think its a pretty strong statement and not very precise

I do realize this, yes.
In my photo the SEL is merely resting on the watch w/out spring bar so it is sagging a bit more giving an appearance of more recession.
What CF does is provide a more accurate job on the SEL midlink which overall makes it appear more genuine & appealing to the eye.

But you didn't mention the bracelet midlink you specifically said better sels. This is disingenuousI do realize this, yes.

Well I’m stating my opinion having seen VS, CF, and Gen side by side.
If that isn’t candid enough for you, take care cupcake.
