Nice upgrades. Now just do the hands and you'll have something really indistinguishable.

Similar question, is the bezel insert the same as the old one? Or is it different for the 41mm?
No need to change the retainer ring.
You can just replace the Gen bezel.
Mine has been updated with Gen bezel, crystal, hands, dial and calendar disk.
All of Gen parts were moved from Noob V6S super franken which I built 5years ago.
I have also Gen crown but I don't think to change the crown going so far as to replace the crown tube.
VSF crown looks so nice.

What’s this feature?
EDIT.. my bad, it’s a trick of the light. Never seen that before!

Need a look at movement to confirm if it’s a VS3135.
The watch itself could well be a VSF116610, I’d like to see a better pic with the watch not so close to camera so I can see the crown guards properly.
I found a second hand vsf. do you think this is a vsf 3135?
I added more photos. I can't see the movement without buying it. I think it's vsf.

thanks for the info. So you fitted gen bezel and used the vsf retaining ring and vsf bezel hytrel ring right? The bezel turns smooth?

Yes, you have to. The gen bezel gasket and the vsf bezel gasket are extremely different and there is no way to make it fit a gen bezel unless with extensive modding (read sanding the gasket by half its thickness)
Retainer ring is VSF but I don’t use VSF hytrel ring because it was damaged when VSF bezel taken off.
Hytrel ring might be Gen or Noob V6S.
I have been using it for 5 years.
Of course bezel turns smoothly.
VSF retainer ring and bezel inside profile seems Gen spec.
