VSF Releases Daytona 126500 （Equipped with Dandong 4131 beta）

Question for the ones that have the VSF Daytona 126500. What are your thoughts on the bezel and crown? I just received mine. They look good to me. But I do have an APS bezel and gen crown coming.
I just received QC for a VSF 126500 black dial. Watch looks perfect to my eyes, alignment all good etc. And looks like the crown has been updated to get rid of the large dots! Beyond excited for this piece.

I would not accept this QC. Some chinese guy painted some thin pink lines on your watch. Unacceptable...
RL without doubt. This is never a 126500, should be 136500 as the lines on the dial clearly indicate that.

As ugly as they are, the previous versi9n of the crown on this watch was worse. So glad they fixed it.
Even though the CF crystals have improved the last few months, these VSF/SBF crystals are just 1-2 steps above.
guys my fainting falls on this, what do you think? now that vs has launched into the game with the weighted model I think there is no comparison

Don't care about 164g weight for a 220g+ platinum model, the dial color and bezel color is more important for the Platona, it's the whole selling point

It looks good but let's just wait for real in hand pictures.
VS has small advantage using DD4131 in open caseback with better finishing but Clean is also rolling out DD4131 for all their models so they're tied

they’ll have my attention when it’s at least 200g without added links
In the last month, has anyone received a 126500 VSF with the correct winding crown with the correct sized three dots and the correct proportions of the symbol, as on GEN ?
If so, can you post some photos ?
Can you indicate which TD you purchased it from ?
Thanks

VS hasn't updated their crown since release. And in fact it's present on all their watches/4131 steel Daytonas lol.
I had a 126500 VSF black dial that was sourced about two months ago, but sold it on. It was from Theonewatch. The crown looked okay to me in that it didn't have the three giant dots.

That's interesting. That looks like a Clean crown to me tbh! Did you buy it stock or M2M?I had a 126500 VSF black dial that was sourced about two months ago, but sold it on. The crown looked okay to me in that it didn't have the three giant dots.
Last I checked (last week QC), VS Daytona still come with the horrible crown lol. This is QC from just today.
Yeah definitely brand new from Steve. I was pleasantly surprised!That's interesting. That looks like a Clean crown to me tbh! Did you buy it stock or M2M?

I think those 4801 movement versions are so cheap and fun that there's no bother in buying a new one tbqh. I considered picking one up myself but I have so many Daytonas that it would just sit untouched in the box.
