I got it for 380 with steves compounding sales. The missing bidirectionality is really not a problem. The rotor might be a bit louder, but it's only discernible if you take the watch off of your wrist and put it next to your ear, if even.

Plus, you could argue that the peacock movement is more stable than the Clean movement. and that for 400 euro less.

If you ask me, it's a no-brainer.
shit 380 is a steal, steve from the one watch?

Wait they fitted a 4130 in the 126500?! I thought the sub dials are more spaced out in the new Daytona.
They didi.

Seems like VSF have not fix their winding crown close to gen appearance.....

Shall wait for VSF to fix this flaw in their next version of the 126500 in both their black & white dial variant before I bite the bullet

I wouldn't hold your breath on that. And the CF crown doesn't have the best definition on the bit you'll never look at anyway either.

Do you have one in your posession? I have had 3 and none of them had bad definition, also comparison pics showing that crown is just fine on the clean daytona… for the vsf it is a big NO

Gen vs clean

So is anyone going to talk about the possibilities of VS making 116520's, since they have their hands on DD4130's?

Hello
Is it possible that the Rolex Daytona 126500 and Rolex Submariner 124060 in steel use the exact same Triplock winding crown (diameter: 7 mm)?
If the answer is yes, why does VSF on the new 126500 use a winding crown with the three dots symbol so different from the original?
Wouldn't it be enough to use the winding crown of the 124060?
Look at the photo, the crown of the 124060 doesn't seem bad to me, a sign that VSF knows how to do things well. Or are there other reasons that I don't understand?

Sorry. I still haven't figured out how to insert images correctly. :)
