Here ya go. The cyclops issue looks way worse in this shot due to the angle of the photo, its only slightly off in reality, hardly noticeable unless you are an obsessed rep addict ;-)

I'd love to see the gen next to this.

how does this sit on the wrist like a big 42mm...i have the yacht 40mm in RG....thinking of trying this one. is it big looking. i have an omega 300m that is 42 sometimes i wonder if its too big or not. or maybe i'm just used to 40mm subs all day long.

It doesn't feel like a 42.. more like a 40. Its slim as well so you don't really notice it. Its a perfect size IMO.

Yes, the QC pics are nice.
He might have used the ultra wide angle lens on his phone :D

Of course Gen looks crispier, and the gen photo is much better taken, with better light and reflection control.
Even here, we can see the distortion on the TD's photo, but better than the photo shown before!

The VSF looks really nice, and close to gen.
The VSF bezel looks really nice also.

Can't wait to get mine. I will post some pictures taken with my Nikon Z 6 and 100mm Macro lens...

Cheers

Can't wait to see the pics! :)

Looks great! Thanks for sharing.

If you get a chance, some daylight shots would be cool.

I had one and sold it , I couldn't get used to the size of the lume plot markers , they take some getting used to , and be aware the lug withs are 21mm not 20mm like all other oysterflex bands .
I was very impressed with the glidelock clasp once trusty replaced it as it wouldn't close fully , I would prefer it in 40mm , gens are 40k if I remember

No photos?
What about the other things?
Dial, hands, crystal, movement...

It's here.
First impressions are awesome!
I will take some better pics when I have the time.
This bezel is great. Love the way the numerals shine.

Hands are very nice and clean, dial also, DW font similar to gen, crystal is very nice, and noticeably better than the one on my ARF v3.
Movement winds smoothly and crown screws in nicely.

Here's a side by side, with a gen, for reference.

Looks fantastic, love the contrast between the bezel and the case. Also it fits really nice at least on your wrist. Also good to hear that the 3235 winds smoothly, Vsf really taking the lead when it comes to clone momvemts. Enjoy it!

Thanks :)

Note that I have a 17.8cm wrist (7 inches) and this is indeed the maximum wrist size you can go with with this oyster bracelet (even 18.2cm will be tight).

The oysterflex is super comfortable. First time trying one and it goes really well around the wrist.

Cheers
