a bit off topic..new to the smurf--have a JF on the way, pics thereof appear incredibly gen-like with respect to dial color vs bezel and gen. I expect bezel action, bracelet and overall feel to be far inferior to VSF...wonder if a mash-up possible..?

i received my qc pics from jtime today and I noticed the serial number starts with S39… has anyone seen such SN for smurf? I believe it’s D05.. for vsf smurf.

Would love to know if anyone has similar SN? Thanks

My Smurf is D0. Pre raids.

It's a great watch, gets all eyes on it. I wish I could pull off the look to actually wear it more and not sit in its case :(

Accepted QCs from Jtime. Looked good to me but I needed to accept quickly to ship before CNY.

pretty stoked about it.

Can I get some opinions about the rehaut? Looked okay to me but someone was saying it looks wonky.

I just recieved a 116619LB Smurf.. it's a brand new watch serial K25..

It's not the same VSF quality of my other VSF watches, this watch looks great but it feels like a rep?! In particular the bracelet feels cheap and rattly, it's totally unlubricated and each link grinds and squeaks against the one next to it. The bracelet has sharp edges that I can shave my fingernail with. The sides of the watch case has sharp edges too. The glidelock feels crap.
The pearl on the insert has a very fine rim which doesn't look quite right to my eye.

Positives, the crown screw action is butter, the bezel action is perfect and SEL is recess is good x4. The cyclops has no distortion, the hands are nicely 3d.. but it feels like a rep.

Compared to my VSF116610LV which was one of the first ones whe they launched, that watch feels like a Rolex and it glides through your hands like a sheet of silk, this new one does not, it's clunky and sqeaucky and sharp edged.

What is going on VSF?

I had the VSF Hulk too, and I was available to pull the trigger for this Smurf, now I have doubts... Anyone with Clean that have motivation for a little review?
