Keep in mind, Sead´s stock isn’t EU stock any more. It´s now UK stock and this is the current problem we have!

I have 116610LN from VSF... I really love the watch the only thing that I forgot was it this model with VS3135 that had 70 hours power reserve or the newer 41models? I am so confused because my watch stops after not wearing it for like 16+... (not serviced yet). Please educate me, thanks.

70 hours is for the 3235 movement, the 3135 is aroumd 48 hours. You can let the watch die them fullt wound it and see how much the power reserve really last.

Hello in a 116610LN the bezel is a little bit loose. The rotation is extremely smooth (you can turn it with one finger) and has a little play left a right.

Is there a way to fix this and make the bezel stiffer and reduce the play?

I have the option of importing a VSF 116610LN from the USA to Germany (EU). how good are the chances that the watch will arrive here?

Please, could someone among the most experienced tell me if this VSF really mounts gen parts? The following gen parts on a VSF basis should be installed:
Gen dial
Gen bezel
Gen insert
Gen hands
Gen crystal
Gen crown
Gen DW

Thank you very much

Thank you very much

yes,however for the gen crown you must put a gen tube also otherwise it leaves a gap between the crown and the case wich is ugly

I think he’s asking if THAT watch has gen parts installed. To which I would say yes based on the photos.

But I am curious about the gen crown in VSF tube as I’ve never heard you needed a gen tube to facilitate the crown swap….

Thanks, didn't understand it correctly.
You dont "need" exactly,the gen crown screws on the vsf tube fine but it doesn't go all the way down and it leaves a gap wich is ugly,and thats why you need a gen tube in order to screw all the way down to the case...
