Ryan came through big time! Was able to get a pre raid VSF 116618LN .. Here it is next to my gen: to say VSF nailed it is an understatement!

Awesome, brother. This is my next buy when VSF is back up and running. All the fascination by some about the color being horrible was misguided.

And I let everyone scare me away talking about the gold color. Damnit. Never again. Great pick up, buddy.

Thank you for your post, really amazing. It’s interesting because on the Trusty videos, both the Black and Blue dial FG VSF Subs look so copperish! So obviously something is up with a filter or bad camera since your watch is fantastic! Will order a blue VSF FG now.

Agree. I was hesitant for the longest time precisely for that reason. When the VSF arrived yesterday I immediately put it next to my gen and could not believe how incredibly close to gen the color is.

Mine is pretty bad, its a dark orange gold colour, it was no good in my opinion. This latest one next to gen looks pretty good though.. maybe my own is the same, I have no similar watch to compare it to.

Man I reached out to trusty to try and see if there were any black face left and looks like I missed the boat. That one next to the gen is awesome.

This hobby is gonna wind up as bad as my 2a hobby ????

Yes Trusty said to me that the VSF FG models were not available however Lucy has somehow managed to get a VSF FG blue dial one for me. Just awaiting the QC.

I could not find the information, but are they the same weight? (I guess not, but asking)

My gen 116610 fully linked weights about 157gr, my YG 116618 about 228gr. Hope this helps :)
