Sead takes really natural pics. Waiting on mine - will share. Still not sure why I got a rep of a £30k gen, but its so pretty.

Hehe, me too... Nice to have different colors. Mine should be in the mail soon, approved QC yesterday.... Also waiting for a LV and considering the black and white GMT from VSF....

I would not accept that. The dates are not aligned at all especially the 28 - you will notice that in real life for sure.

Really liking my VSF LV. Just green lit my VSF Smurf & LN. I feel like I’m financing some kids college tuition. Here’s to the triple crown!

Like I said that’s not really a red flag for me that’s a fix I could do with my eyes closed lol

No point....rhodium lasts 6 months tops on rings and watches and that's generous for some mom and pop shop doing it in the back with a spoon of solution mix. Rings and watches are the worst type of jewelry to plate because of the wear they receive. Also you need an activator for the SS since rhodium is an acid solution and would react with the steel alloys.
You would need to plate with nickel first for it to stick but would stick best with pure gold. Rhodium plating has lots of pores, meaning it allows small surface tarnish to form so you need minimum 20 microns thick for it to last well.

I'm assuming they electrpolish the bracelet with the basic formula of Glycolic acid 55%, sulfuric acid 30%, water 15%.

If the colour was yellow gold I agree it's very noticeable between plated and solid however white gold and electropolished SS both reflect 75% of the light.

Plus the fact that if you plate steel (on top of nickel) with Rhodium it will look.....like steel. It will not have the warmer color of gen Rolex because they don't plate with Rhodium
