Why mention Trump in a fake watch forum?

I was trying to equate Kalev007's dogmatic obsession with ZZFs (to the exclusion of appreciating the other person's pov) with something contemporary - Trump supporters fitted that bill. I could have chosen hardcore religious loonies or the American gun lobby if you'd prefer? Perhaps all of those three things are the same though?

it was enough to put Trump / Biden and you avoided recalls

Back on the subject of watches.... I wanted to fill you guys in. As you know I have both the VSF LN and ZZF V3. I decided to do a little modding yesterday... I wanted to try and combine the best of both watches and create a beautiful hulk rep containing the following

VSF Case
VSF Movement
Gen crystal
Gen datewheel
Everything else ZZF.

To my surprise, the VS3135 with ZFF’s Clean Factory dial did NOT fit into the VSF CASE... the dial diameter is slightly larger (couldn’t find my damn calipers, sorry I’d guess about 0.5-1mm). I also noticed when removing the VS3135 from the VSF case that it was pretty snug, was a bit difficult to rotate the movement in the case to remove the casing screws.

Long story short. I ended up with the following watch and I love it.

Gen Crystal
Gen Datewheel
VS3135 movement
The rest ZZF.

Sucks the CF Dial didn’t fit into the VSF case as it would have been nice to have the VSF crown guards; nevertheless I’m not a stickler on them this works for me. Just wanted to let everyone else know that you can’t swap them in case they were planning on it.

Let's not do politics - back on track with the Hulk. Does anyone know the clasp code on the VSF Hulk? Same as the LN?

Edit - I've found it; it seems it's the same, ie 7GJ

Looks amazing. Do you see a big difference between VSF vs Gen Crystal?

Also, does the Gen crystal fit into the VSF case?

Yes it does, also another member in the other vsf thread already fitted a gen crystal on his vsf LN.

Thanks brother. This is good info. Any other parts you know that would fit?

Where are you guys generally sourcing your Gen parts?

Almost every Gen part should fit, so you can go as far as you want. I send my watch to interaktiv and will be mounting Gen hands, datewheel and crystal.
