They are not factory stickers. They are protection stickers that I put on all of my watches. You can see them in pictures but not in real life.

Got my VSF smooth bezel rhodium gray DJ41 126300 today.

Everything seems OK. But the crown feels a little flimsy.

Also, I got a wrong white tag for 126334 instead of 126300!!!

That looks pretty bad. How is it attached? Can you superglue it back on?

I couldn’t find the piece that fell off because I was out and about. I only found out when I was about to pay. I won’t be fixing it. I’ll just buy an ARF clasp to replace this VSF one. It doesn’t seem to have a positive click to begin with anyway.

Btw on this video the chinese guy showing the stem,you can see he easily moving the crown like bending it easily like it will easily bend or brake,same thing is like my crown/stem on my vsf,is it like that on your samples?

My ARF felt that way but VSF is pretty sturdy. I am pretty sure it has got something to do with how the crown is mounted on the stem

Has anyone else have a small issue with the crown being to close to the case when rotating the crown?

Im used to having about 2 mm gap before I screw so there is enough space for the threads to interact. On the VSF it's more like 0,5 mm so if a thread would break just a bit it wouldn't be able to screw.

Here it's pressed in to the case. It has not been screwed in. Sorry for the smudge crystal.

Akilles Here's mine for comparison. When I go to the exact starting point of the thread before screwing in, it's a little over 1.5 rotations until it's tightened.

Could you please take a pic when the crown is pushed with one finger towards the threads (the starting point when you screw)
