agreed. Can’t wait to change it. It’s weird how some QC’s have bold DW’s and those from other TD’s don’t? I wonder if they were just using up excess DW’s from other V6F/RXF side hustles??

I doubt they are different more like dependent on what dates are showing. Some love to show 11 for example which always looks good

I think the hands are a bit off.,

When mine arrives I’ll see. Pearl on the insert is nicely seated the case does look good.

I find it interesting that people keep harping on the datewheel. It a bit bold but we already knew that from day 1 when it was unveiled. That’s the least of my concerns.

Looks it's pretty clear the vsf case and sel looks gen this looks like the best case .the cg are amazing compared to the zzf cg

May I ask when comparing these 2 in the photo, what do you think about hands (especially hour hand)? I cant really say about 3D effect but it looks like Silver colored borders on hands on CSF (especially hour hand again) look thicker than the ZZF. Is VSF hands too thick or are they good? Compared to gen or each other? Thanks in advance.

Received my QC. I’m happy with it and shall approve once I get the photos of the movement I requested.

SEL’s look amazing, Rehaut alignment is spot on, lugs shape is gorgeous, insert color looks nice. Datewheel looks decent - more gen like than I expected. Only thing that appeared to be off was a part of the clasp. It might just be the lighting though. Overall it seems to be a very nicely done submariner replica by VSF. Excited to see them in the Rolex game!

Yup. ZZFs cgs are too fat. The only thing that kind of concerns me, which is hard to gauge with pictures, is the slope of the VSF's rehaut wall. In pictures it looks like the rehaut wall on the VSF is sort of funnel shape.. wider on top - by the crystal, and narrower at the bottom - by the dial.

I wonder if its just an optical illusion and the wall is in fact angled straight down..

Its not about the fatness, its about the shape of the slope.

It's very strange coming out of a respectable factory like vs some with a thick font and some not.
And also in some there is a space between the letter L and the letter Y in the word SFFICIALLY.
Regarding movment ..
Factory vs seems to have done a great job but we do not really have the ability to know what it is like. Is it reliable and stable or does not break down after a week.
Compared to the VR3135 we have more experience and it is good and stable etc ..
From what I see
I like the markers in zzf more and in other things it seems that vs is better
A slightly thick date font does not bother me personally

Li pics are the best in the QC pic game.the dw in li pics looks like a gen font pretty much compared to the font on my qc pics from Andrew that has a thicker looking font.but tbf Andrews qc pics ain't great so that may be what's making the font look fat ?possibly poor exposure

All these new additions are making my head spin :)

I have a zzf v3 and a vsf on order with Li. Both Hulks.

if I understood everything correct, vsf did their own dial and insert right? Or are they using CF like ZZF?
