Thanks, Andrew. This VSF 116610LV looks fabulous! And the VS3135 alone is worth every cent! Thanks for sharing, Andrew.

While there are slight variations, I haven't seen any gen insert with remotely as thick of a font as that.

I have a side by side with gen and it does have fractionally thicker engravings than CF inserts and also the gen has what appears to be a thicker coating of platinum too especially on the digit edges to make it reflect and look more full in appearance. This is fact and not based on pictures! Gen is fitted to the watch. Cf insert is the from a V2s. Hopefully the 1-10 insert is nearer to gen.

So, the inserts are engraved and coated the same. I’m just showing as an example!

It was a nice comparison of the LN (CF vs Gen), but the LV inserts are not the same. For the LN, VSF made their own insert. For the LV they’re using a new, thick numbered clean factory insert. Nevertheless it’s interesting to see the slightly thicker VSF CF LV insert. Makes me a little sad the hulk insert might be a little thick. Still excited for mine to finally ship lol.

You should read slowly before typing. He is making a comparison between a CF v2s (most likely a cf v1-4) insert and a gen insert (not a vsf insert)

Considering that the newer CF bezel is thicker, I think the comparison is still relevant imo... Regardless if is a LN. Don't know how you find a v2s bezel vs gen bezel not relevant mate lol

Haha thanks for the tip, I made a typo in my reply and fixed it accordingly. Also, I’m sorry for being in a bad mood yesterday. Didn’t mean to be so negative towards your one post. Xoxo.

this is a video from one of my supplier (non-TD here), all I gotta say it, this is it guys, this is about as close as we can get, this is just amazing

i have super-franken hulk, i can tell you, by naked eye, there is no difference!!!

It does look very good but let's not jump to conclusions. The biggest tell on hulks is how the insert and even more so the dial react to light, which we can't tell from just one video

Thanks for the video!! Looks nice.

I might be blind, but I can’t really see the sunburst effect on that dial. He seems to be in coffee/drink shop with natural light hitting the dial too.
