A decent plating tool starts at like $1200 and that's not including consumables. I think you'd be better off hiring someone experienced or just buying a genuine bracelet at that point.

Some said the Datejust with the Blue Dial was teased somewhere, has anyone heard additional Info regarding the matter? Gravitating towards the rhodium Dial but the Blue would be awesome.

Rhodium it's been out for ages. I heard that they were ready to release the blue dial but they delayed it a bit, you can pre order it already tho. It's just a couple of days for it to come out. My td said he got a lot of them in pre order so for sure the first batch will sell out fast.

Really? None of my TD's have it yet, it appears. Do you have a link to a TD that has it in stock?

Thanks for the answer. I´ll get a Sub first and wait for pics of the blue Dial and get it once I saw it :) But with the Quality of VSF these days a pre-order isn´t a bad idea, either. Have a great evening.

I still think that arf have better case,bezel and lugs
looks like all latest batch have finally sharp genlike lugs and same shape but vsf is superior in other things
best would be -> ARF complete case with bezel which is more genlike and bezel is more rhodium color compared to vsf too white silver bezel -> vsf movement,dial and bracelet which have much better SEL shape

Everyone has their own opinion and i respect it but still pointless to post a picture of a watch with plastic foil and one without it. I will make proper photos of mine with my proper camera, once i get it. First people said bezel was another color and that was not the case. The only thing i can tell from your picture is that if that's supposed to be a grey dial then arf fucked that up, looks white and that wouldnt be the first grey arf dial i see that looks white.

Maybe im wrong but i dont see any plastick here on puretime,all plastics removed,still looks too white compared to case

Those td photos are not always accurate, im telling you because i work on photography, most of the times those photos are taken in white boxes with super bright led lights. Check the thread and you will the pictures op posted on natural light, bezel looks exactly the same color as the case. I was also referring to the pictures you posted which imo was kinda pointless, dont really support the claims you made. I don't want to change your opinion or anything like that, im just pointing out that. So far only one person on this thread has gotten the watch. Hopefully we will see some more in the next couple of days.

I ordered and paid for a rhodium DJ from Hont on December 30th, got a message today saying they’re out of stock with no ETA on when he can get more.
Has anybody heard anything related to this?

GeekTime might have one available, I ordered a second black dial and he sent me the QC for a rhodium dial last night. So either he accidently sent me the wrong QC link or ordered a rhodium for me by mistake.

I bought a Noob 41 from Trustytime, a new gen DW, crown, and blue dial. All but the crown has come yet, however the damn crown stem release doesn't work... There is also a little screw in the bracelet that won't screw all the way in. Small thing, but sometimes hangs on fabric. I could fix that, however I can't get the crown out. I decided instead of just purchasing a new SH3235 I would try out this VSF. Just ordered one now, excited to get it and check it out! Does anyone know if it's really work getting the watch serviced by the TD? I never seen any before/after pics of the service, but the Noob I did pay for it and it winds quite smooth and holds 7-14 seconds a day. I worry maybe the service accidently broke the crown release and wonder if maybe I can just run the movement in solution when I change out the DW and dial. What's everyone's opinion on that?
