Tbh i can't tell the difference between it and the gen, even the overall feel and look of this watch is same as any gen rolex i held, crystal is very clear same as my gen 16610ln.
It is my fav replica watch i owned so far.

As for the video, keep in mind that this is a professional camera with a large sensor, which gives much more detail. In front of a standard camera. In reality the hands look much better



Could we have some more of these ‘incredible ‘pics of you, please????

Can't share any pics cause my phonecam is broken ....

Recieved my Yachti today and i just have to say " Woooow" Never seen such a nice crystal from a ootb rep .... the overall feeling is very good ! For some people it's maybe nonsense but i really like that the watch comes in the travelbox with all hangtags and the matching Card ! This is a super + for me :)

Get one yourself , you won't regret !

@jayalvin. Beautiful pics. Thanks for sharing. Is it just me, or do the bezel markings on the replica seem slightly shorter compared to the gen? The height of the gen bezel markings just seem to be slightly taller and have more depth.

Yes, VSF bezel markings are slightly shorter.
But I am with Jayalvin777 - the VSF bezel seems better than the original :D

Remember, these are marcro shots. You won't be able to tell much difference in the wrist.

That looks good and excellent pics. Thank you.

I am not terribly familiar with the tiny details of this model in gen but the hour hand looks longer than Rolex typically uses.

In 6 digit ceramic models (not including the 2020 models because I haven't looked at them closely enough) but Rolex usually uses a hand that juuuusssttt reaches the reaches the 3, 6, 9 12 markers. Like just touches.

I don't know if every model does this. But most models I've looked at closely do tend to do this.

These hand macros really spell out how different the hands are. People always talk about Rolex hands having a more 3D effect but it seems, looking at the macros, that it's achieved to a significant degree by simply having the lume recessed below the level of the gold/metal. Are Gen hands deeper? I appreciate the measurements would be tiny, but has anyone ever measured the depth of Gen hands and compared them to rep?

In this model the hour hand passes the markers.

I think if it was the same camera and the same lens the difference would have looked less significant. And the same lighting..very affects the overall look

I'm sure that's true - to an extent. But we all know Rolex hands are lovely and 3D looking and most Rep hands are far too flat looking - so there's obviously a difference.
