Is it possible due to differences in environment, light, software and smartphone GPU or even editing. But I also think the same. I am confused whether the VSF sold by Jtime and Trusty is the same as Miro (non TD) which is cheaper price of $100.
I ordered from Jtime today and once I approve QC will share here. Li confirmed with me via WhatsApp that the gold on this newer model is lighter and more accurate to gen. Fingers crossed!

QC came in and I approved. Can’t really tell from the lighting if the “new” color is right, so I’ll have to wait until it arrives. Either way I’m excited for a quality piece!
I dont believe re-plating will make them any close to gen. Tone of gold can change a bit, but will still be out of range, so why bother? No need to spend money and try hard to communicate with the guys who will plate your watch.
I saw a re-plated one in M2M sales sometime ago, it was very badly done. I believe it was better with factories own plating.
If you want it closer, and if you want it to shine perfectly from distance - you need true 18K gold wrapping. Not plating. But still wont worth it. So, waste of time to me.
Whatever you do, it will not be that close to gen. Thats why i dont preffer two tone or full gold reps, just steel ones. (I have a wrapped TT sub-C which is very good and price was double of the plated one - but gold wrapping cracked in 1-2 little parts after a long time - and factories are not producing wrapped anymore as far as i know.)
Anyway, its not so easy to tell its gen or not from distance if you are not used to seeing TT rolexes everyday.
So just use it, enjoy it.
I think It looks amazing, are u gonna change the crystal or the current one is good??
Really looking forward to this one... can someone confirm that VSF has changed the gold colour to a lighter one? If so what am I to ask my TD, v2?
I have always bought from Andrew for the last13 years, so I guess I'll still buy from him unless there is a distinct advantage in buying from another seller?
I can confirm (per above). I specifically asked (JTime) if this was the "new version" with a lighter gold color. I'd check with Andrew given he likely has access, and will know the difference. Good hunting!
