leave it soaked in baby oil overnight. you will see what a difference!

remove the bracelet from the case, place it in a deep container, and fill the container with baby oil

Take a ziplock bag and put your bracelet in it. Then fill the bag with baby oil so it’s submerged, shake it for a bit and leave the bracelet. Come back and shake again. Some guys leave it over night, a few hours will do the job.
I like to save the oil in the bag for next time as well.

Do you actually pour oil (baby oil, olive oil) onto the bracelet, directly? Is that how you guys proceed? I’ve received my 12LN a few days ago and the bracelet squeaks a bit

I remove the bracelet, remove the spring bars, thread a paperclip through one of the spring bar holes (optional) then i soak for 24 hours in unscented baby oil (mineral oil) in a small container with enough to cover the bracelet.
After 24 hours, lift out with paperclip and drain off excess oil. Then wrap in paper towel for a while to let any remaining oil drain. Final optional step a quick wash with soapy water if there is still excess oil.

I use baby oil because it is completely safe on the skin, unlike a lot of other lubricants.

Side benefit, any excess oil will give you baby soft wrist skin. ;)

sorry who are?
i do the same with the ziplock but with soap and warm water. i feel that it attracts less dust when it dries up compared to baby oil

Thank you so much guys, I put it in baby oil for a few hours and wow, the rattle is gone! I've read about this before but actually never tried it because I didn't believe baby oil would fix this. Going to do this on all my watches now lol. Bracelet feels smooth just like on my genuine subs.

I am borrowing this QC picture from this thread, I already received mine. Does anyone else notice the clasp flip thingy (with the crown on), it is not symmetrical. Mine is also like this. Is this a common issue?

Yes I have that one mine as well that I received, but it still fits securely so not a big issue for me.

Hi guys, I am quite new: I have red a lot of post and I am a bit confused. Someone can confirm that today the best replica of the Starbucks submariner 41 mm is JVS ( better than Clean then) ? And I noted that is available only to yhe TD Amf. Someone can confirm please if my understanding is correct ? Thank you (review will follow). Kind regards

beyond that it must please you. each decided the "best" of him. but, objectively, and recognized by many users here, VSF welcomes a lot of acclaim. especially the movement vs unanimously

You are in completely the wrong thread I'm afraid. I suggest you read the extensive threads on here on the VSF and Clean 126610LV models and come to you own conclusion. In short, both models are superb, but the VSF is not freely available since the factory was closed down.

The only answer to this is that the best replica is the one that YOU like the best. People on here will tell you VSF is best, wait ARF is best, wait Clean is best, no wait JVS is best. We are all different and can all live and not live with different flaws, and let’s be honest any replica of a £10’000 watch for £400 is going to have flaws.
Buy what floats your boat and don’t listen to anyone else or you’ll drive yourself insane
Sorry, this was meant for #Alemipd
