Case shape is different on eta vs 3135, just doesn’t seem like a fair comparison is all. The ZZF hulk is miles better than the VSF but that’s just my opinion. It’s a good review with good pics, woulda been cool if they were all 3135 though.

I have gen 214060 and VSF and two ZZFV3's, Hulk and No Date. I can tell you the VSF In my view wins over the ZZFV3 and I love my ZZFV3's, I am not any particular factory fan boy! Main win points are the VSF crystal and cyclops which rivals gen. The bracelet too. The dial is soooo gen like. The lume is very close as well. Let us not forget the VS3135 movement which is very smooth. I don't really look at the CG's, the Case itself or the Lugs. The rehaut is an issue with VSF. Mine is way off on the centering of the coronet at 12 and the first R and X's to the left and right. The ZZFV3 wins on rehaut. But at least ZZF make a No Date which is all I really like. The ZZF is a really close 2nd! A very nice watch. The gen is better on every point! But for near $12,000 for a grey market gen you have to ask yourseslf ................? Is it worth it? It was to me.

Great insight and mini review from another genuine and zzf owner.

Only difference between the eta and 3135 zzf watches is the crown height - which makes the crown guards a little less open on 2836 watch than they are on the 3135.. but even on the 3135, they do not have the same profile and rounded shape, the angle of cut in towards the case or the slight curl of the crown guard flowing from the outer surfaces from the lugs...neither v2 or v3 get the crown guards as as good as the VSF.

More and more people are receiving these and agreeing they are super reps out the box, guys with a collection genuine watches and reps are impressed and some guys (like me) are just blown away. If you get yourself a VSF you'll know there is a quality watch coming your way with a nice gen like finish, weight, look feel and movement. As I said above, I'm buying another (LN) to keep in stickers just to have! I'll compare it with my gen LN this time.

Wow it really is a great time for sub rep market... these are all amazing.

Bad time if you're trying to buy gen...also makes it apparently it may not be worth it even at MSRP!

Thats a little bit disingenuous. The reality is though vsf may call yheres a v1 it is made possible because of sll the previous work done by other manufacturers. Remember these factories buy there parts from some of the same suppliers so there v1 benefits from others versions evolution. On paper there is actually not much to moan about on the noob v11 except its a noob and out of favour

khurum_m Thank you for supplying the VFS to me.
When I had the ZZF V3, I thought this was it. An excellent rep. BUT now having the VFS, my vote goes to VFS.
I have not spent ages analysing every little detail of the watch. I let others do that, and I read their reviews :)
The ZZF is a close second. The VFS dial is more like the gen, and I have to agree that the bracelet is slightly better than ZZF. the bezel movement better on VFS.
I have taken the pictures today with my iPhone pro, lighting was not great today.

In pictures VFS is on left, ZZF on right, Gen in middle
Hope this helps. I have enjoyed reading others peoples contribution to this post.
I am sold on VFS.

Amazing review thanks. Even beter that you can compare VSF ZZF and Genuine all at once and you that confirm my findings and the opinions of many others on the forum..

VSF LN and LV should both be on the NWBIG list as far as I am concerned.

Beautiful comparison, what a pity that the crystal and cyclops is still not on par.
