How soon do you think indexes will be fixed? (will it release with 41mm indexes?)

Maybe soon. Maybe never. VSF subs still have the floating-m "error" on the dial. (And yes, I used "scare quotes" around error because there's an ocean of ink that's been spilled over whether any sub gen dials ever had a floating-m.

so is this really VSF? is VSF back in business?

Yep, they’re never gone actually, just low profile.

 

[SwePe]

VSF is def up and running. But seems to be some insecurities about when in time this version in specific will be available.

 

[Radiomir369]

In case the dial will not be improved - could it be possible to use/install a GEN dial? Will it fit?

 

[drwatch]

Awesome rep! I be honest. I did notice the indexes and the lugs. But after mentioning it cant be unseen.
Seems like I have to wait for V2. But the rest of it looks astonishing. Hope VSF will fix it soon. They might get flooded with orders afterwards.

Ordered this 36 from Lucy. I already have the same configuration 41mm from Clean.

Can’t wait to wear it. 36 is the perfect size.

Excited to hear what you think once you have it. I’ve just gotten my GMF DJ36 the other week. Happy with it but it’ll be interesting to compare.

I was excited about this until I saw the price. I don't know why, but I was not expecting it to be as high as it is.

Ah my very first Rolex. 36mm DJs are still so underrated whether its gen or rep. It needs more love!

Me too, I also think it is very expensive - more or less same level as a Sub.

How much is it? Should be about the same as the 41?

It is the same. I have never looked at the 41mm price either as I don't like its proportions. I don't know, I just thought a smaller version would be a bit cheaper.

I understand your logic but then again, i believe the manufacturing process is quite similar in cost for both. And looking at other factories the 36 and 41 are usually in the same range.

I’ve seen them for around $588.

More colours outs now black with batons. Blue with diamond, black with diamonds and white with Roman numerals but the 116234 ref

It is the level of an VSF 122610. But there is no (expensive) rotating ceramic bezel like the sub equipped with => much less production costs. Can not understand the pricing of the Datejust.

 

[Feefo]

That's steep. Exploiting the name they made with the 41 and other models. Manufacturing cost is not the driver, else why does gmf cost 200 bucks less? Just for the movement? It is a good movement, but worth 200 more than an eta clone? Nah, not going this road with this version. Now one has to hope some other factory enters the race or gmf steps up its game.
