VSF VS3135 Submariner Comparison Against the Gen

[Smoke]

The vsf is king for me also it has the best rep xtal I've ever seen in my life well the ar anyway it's like a prof but a bit better the black hole surprised me.its nit as black as gen but there is black hole effect for sure,the edge of the xtal sucks though.

arf hands are still the best by a long way.but the vsf case is top notch and cant be beaten by any of the new watches I've seen .the vsf dial is amazing mine is flawless and so is the insert.it has the best pearl in the game,

The bezel assembly and action and sound is impeccable never have I felt a rep bezel that feels identical to gen to turn
I shut my eyes and turned both bezels lol on the gen and rep .the teeth looks really good like a 2017 /20 gen

looking at the platinum deposit in the insert under a loupe blows away the zzf v2 platinum because under a loupe the zzf or noob platinum or arf has vertical lines going through each number I think that's the way the insert was finished before they deposited the platinum.the vsf is smooth as silk under macro
.
the cg and lugs are amazing and I've got a little comparison that shows the gen and the rep both have identical curve and taper

the sel is also best in class recessed perfectly on my example.but I've not seen the new zzf v3 yet with it's new arf bracelet.but going by the pics the vsf case shits on the zzf because of the cg.but I have a feeling the zzf rehaut will look better than the vsf.im gonna hold back my vsf full.review until they release the hulk I think.but what I can say is the vsf is fucking sick lol and it's only v1.and before the bs starts no I don't works for vsf or any Td I paid full wak for my vsf from trusty andrew.ill post up some pics I took to highlight why the vsf case and sel is so good

Hands dont look bad in real life

For me the Starr of the show is the case and bracelet and sick movement that winds like butter

 

[PolonusTM]

I have already opened the watch to grease orings and to regulate the watch. The movement has very nice, butter like feel when manually winding. It was easy to regulate - when you move the lever it goes into new accuracy very stable way, unlike others where it takes several seconds to stabilise in new position. Overall I am happy

Are you going to replace it with a gen xtal?

smoeke amazing sub, in some photos the VSF bezel reminds me of Noob's in the color Black-gray, does it actually look like this or is it just in these photos?

Of course if I keep it.i may sell it and wait for the hulk version

case and movement seems to take all the votes
What you think about the bracelet ? Compared to gen ? Compared to arf or zzf?

can u do a comparison pic in dull light to see how the paltinum Paint is campered to gen?

for example like this:

 

[Tete]

dla329 My TD already answered me, apparently the first batch of RXF came with a different insert and with little platinum, now they are mounting the same insert as vsf

“Thick date” fear was a bit exaggerated IMHO

Photo makes it fat.

It’s so bold bro! Double Thickness

The VSF from what I have seen is setting the bar for subs.

The VSF is arguably top dog atm, and this is not a criticism but rather a comparison point. Nobody but ARF does the hands right (except the too white lume).

VSF minute hand lume plot is too short and too narrow, the silver borders on both hands are too thick. I can spot it straight away. Still an amazing rep though.

I agree, VSF in many areas looks to be top rep. It looks Great!

I definitely agree about the hand borders, you see it instantly don’t you. I did the first time I saw the rep pics.

I’d say the newest ZZF hands are actually on par / better than ARF, The geometry and curvature just looks right now. I wasn’t keen on ZZF hands at all before. The ARF hands has something that’s off on the hour hand.

my opinion of course.

Waiting for the "reflection"-crew to chime in and explain how you're completely wrong on the curve/taper of the lugs... :thumbsup:
