This picture is great example how good vsf’s halo effect is...

Looks awesome mate. Wear it in good health!

Yes, never seen this before on a rep crystal so obvious also the Blackhole is spot on.

Agreed, never really saw it on rep xtals let alone decent AR.

One more update regarding the movement. I took the watch off on Friday around 6:00 PM. It's Monday 9:00 AM and still running (~63 hours) and now 35 seconds ahead of the atomic clock I used to set it. Not bad, especially as other low cost movements with big power reserve have extreme inaccuracies towards the end of the power reserve (e.g. ETA Powermatic 80).

The movement stopped working at 3:57 PM which results in ~70 hours of power reserve. The spring probably wasn't even 100% wound after only hanging out in the office on Thursday and Friday. Great job by VSF!

Received 1st 126610LN have the LV in route. Getting used to the bigger feel on the wrist, 1mm is there lol kinda wears like a thinner sd43. This 12xxxx model is going to be a great segment for reps....

Looks really great mate, this is certainly my favourite rep at the moment. I just need to buy one now !

It’s funny, I read last night in a review article the 116 case is 40.3 vs 40.8 on the new 126 making it only 0.5mm bigger.

From what I understand, the general consensus is that the 116 is 40.2 while the 126 is 40.5

Dear YellowFin

Great review and photos !

I have been hanging back since the raids and now thinking about pulling the trigger on an VSF 126610LN.

Hold off until things settle down post raids or go ahead and place the order ? Any recommendations ?

Thank you!

I don't know if it is true but last thing I heard VSF is still selling off their new old stock. So there may be no VSF subs in the future. Take the chance and get one. They're awesome.
