Not bad. Though I guess DWO is making alignment of DW more difficult. Still for 250 this is insane quality.Accepted my QC’s
Every TD has its own prices
At Andiot Watches 280$ + 40$ shipping also for multiple watches
Mine from Andiot was already in my hands in Germany after 10 days after my order
I don't think it always depends on the cheapest price
Some are a bit more expensive but can get and ship the watches faster than others
I think everyone should order from the TD where they have a good feeling and not just look only at the price

VSF is fantastic. I have the one with the VS3235 and even winding is almost as good as my gen DJs. I'm sure the A2824 version is the same appearance-wise and the only tell would be the winding action of the A2824.
no we only need them to release a 124060 version of this...
Qc accepted, these are for your viewing pleasure only. Old noob subs now irrelevant? I imagine vsf 116610LN and Hulk may someday see a youth edition. Why not? There's obviously plenty of folks who prefer 28xx, me especially. I also think the VS clone movement factory will be raided or disrupted before we ever see prices come down or parts become widely available. This, imo, as a capable hobby watchmaker makes a cheap 28xx model way more of a nobrainer. I can get a nice A2824 for $70 on the bay from a US seller in less than 5 days and have my watch back up and running in 30 mins or less. But A2824 lasts forevs in most cases anyway.
I am curious how VSF applies the numerals on their inserts, do they ever fade like the noobs did? I haven't seen anything on that front. DWO are a pain to glue up sometimes, but a small price to pay for a $250 watch that is so close to the real deal, that the biggest "tell" is the anti-clockwise crown movement to advance the hands, who cares...
Now...what can I sell to get the blue one?

I bought one as well, years after I got my last one (Cartier Santos).
Can’t wait to receive it, my mate has a genuine GMT so he can’t wait ti compare those two.

I need to come up with a non fussy way to remove and adhere inserts....then I could have the blue and black insert whenever I want. @KJ2020 , and ideas?
Obviously don't want to have remove the bezel and compromise hyrtel ring every time.
Might be limited to just use a few pieces of double sided dial dots. But of course increases potential for the insert to fall out, ceramic can shatter from a fall. Then to remove the insert for a swap, 3M black double sided mounting tape, I use this often to stick and pull inserts out.
Anyone know if these inserts on VSF are pressure fit, glue, or adhesive rings?
