Hi guys, just received my VSF LV yesterday in the mail and took some pictures of it in bright natural light and 1 of them in office light setting.

Initial thoughts are that I really feel the quality is very good! Although I suspect that all these top quality reps from most factories would feel this way. I'm just giving my opinion on what I feel about this watch. I do have a black gen sub which I might do a more in depth comparison later but these are just my initial thoughts.

The movement feels really lovely. It winds so smooth and the date clicks and changes over dead center everytime. The bezel turning also clicks very satisfyingly. It feels very close to gen, with probably just a little more back play than the gen.

The bracelet feels surprisingly soft. Initially I thought it was going to be quite stiff with all the comments about dipping it in oil and stuff. Mine came super soft ootb and only comment is that the clasp feels tighter than the gen.

The crystal is great and the cyclops works perfect under normal natural light settings. It reflects a bit more than gen under really bright light but overall still very good.

I am loving this watch and hope those who have it already enjoy it too!

Wait what? Pics or it didn't happen :D

occb2 Did you already know this?

True, face up face down it swing no winding yet, but I leave it stop for now waiting for upper balance KIF spring and then some wash & oil if needed. Hope this is the movement with all joy.

Hi all,

not sure if I can ask this regarding my QC pic.

1. Is the date in correct alignment? It looks like it’s left aligned to me.

2. It seems like there’s a gap at the lower left SEL. What do you guys think?

Sorry if I’m being overly paranoid as this is my 1st rep.

Thanks for your help in advance!

I think the date is aligned. I also don’t think you should worry about the SEL. It looks okay.

Green light that bad boy!

Got my VSF today. First impression: Wow. This is so good compared to the noob v10 hulk I had. Cant tell to ZZF, ARF but is def feels and looks very nice. Clasp is like gen, crystal is like gen, bezel is very impressive. Only thing is the dial that pops out less. Me happy anyway!
