VSF VS3135 Submariner Comparison Against the Gen

[Jayalvin777]

Looking forward for the no date and then I will be retiring from the 40mm subs. Vsf really nailed it.

So how is the new batch vsf looking

QC already accepted this morning. To show the batch they send right now.

I just received both VSF LN and LV from Andrew and they have correct rehault alignment.

Please post pictures. I would be shocked if this is the case.

Angus review doesn't really matter anymore, it's too late. There are already good reviews from vsf vs Gen and zzf. Every single Gen owner preferred the vsf and from the pictoral reviews most of the people agrees with that. You most likely will die waiting for the perfect rehaut from vsf and if it ever happens you have to pray they don't fuck something else. My opinion if you're in the market for a sub just go for it.

Actually not all Substar said the ZF is better against his VSF. Which is totally fine

Ok, I think this is the first time I’ve actually seen a correct LN rehaut from VSF. May be time to buy!

Thanks for sharing.

Yeah I don't take seriously his opinion considering he vsf was trash then he went to get a watch with mismatching lume hands.

With VSF you need to spend 700 EUR for gen hands and date wheel to make it look like ZF and ZZF OTB and you still have the bad rehaut.

He also said ‘his 126610’ didn’t have AR on the crystal, so observation skills / punch of salt and all that...

You could say the same about any rep. ZF hands fall short of ARF, so why not upgrade the ZF to a gen hand set? The D/W is not better on the ZF. And don’t ignore the crown guards on the ZZF being the wrong shape.

Hmm hands maybe, but date wheel? C’mon.

Yet we’re suppose to take your opinion seriously when you felt compelled to spend 1K + modding your VSF, despite it being “the best”.

Do you own the VSF? Maybe you got a bad example? The date wheel on mine is perfect unless you’re looking through a loupe and even then it’s very very close.

correct and agree, but the most important thing that is the case is 90% as a gen. That cannot be corrected in ZF or ZZF. I do not defend VSF (the DJ 41 VSF is garbage) but until today it is the only one that comes close to gen.

Oh yes that sel recession does look good on oyster i must agree,better than arf,arf have bad recession on oyster but very nice on jubilee

 

[Tete]

And to be fair and realistic, no rep sub hands are good, only Arf comes close but their lumen fill is not good, so they can't be used either. All rep sub have flat, tinny-looking hands. All sub rep should be exchanged for gen hands, if it really bothers you.

I know all of them have their flaws and it's down to what's important to you.

I really wanted to try out the VSF but the QC I got from Sead's UK stock was not good it was the last one so probably one that got rejected by others. First R was very off and DW as aligned to left so much that it almost went under the date window.

I wanted one before Christmas so ended up buying the ZZF from diamant that was in his hulk battle.

Anyway will get VSF or ZF next that to try them out as well.

VSF hand set is a real let down... biggest problem with it imo, it's strange it's a problem on all their Rolex watches right now. Hoping the new DJ41 they make doesn't suffer the same problem. But VSF Mercedes hands are pretty trash. Lets the rest of it down.

Personally, if you're waiting for VSF No-Date... Honestly, stop waiting. Grab yourself a ZZF No Date...
The crystal is fantastic, and the hand set is almost gen quality. It really is a NWBIG imo.
