I received the watches and am very impressed ...

I know that the inner crown has many rolex inscriptions and
I see several people talking about the rehaut "R" which would not be aligned, and I confess that I cannot understand what you are referring exactly ... is it possible to find out?
By being picky,
I may have a complaint that I have to make concerning my 2 VSF watches, in the center where the hands are fixed, on the central dial appears a wave (like a pebble in water) and I imagine that the GEN does not have this wave ... can you confirm ?

The first R next to the crown should be in line with the seconds marker. Which it isnt

The wave you refer to is the dimple around the pinion which does exist in gen but is not very prominent

many thanks, for answer...

just to be sure to understant, the "R" must be alligned (centred) with the first marker ? that's it ?
for example mine is too to the right ...

Ok ! so for me it's not important the rehaut... the watch is fantastic... and now i can confirm the date is not too bold in reality... just a little...

VSF V1 (done)

i'm waiting V2 to see what's the next level :)

A pleasure to discuss with everybody !

That looks really sweet! What a great rep! The DW isn’t that big a deal, it looks close enough to satisfy me.
Looking forward to the LV which is imminent.


i want the no date and the smurf but I’m so tempted to get the hulk. Can’t wait to see how it looks.

Not at all and so far haven't heard anyone having such problem and I have seen lots of vsf on reddit. Although one of my friends vsf had a bit of back play, mine was fantastic.

Stunning.
It almost looks like a gen.
Only a nerd, like us, can see some minor flaws...

That crystal is something amazing!

I've ordered the VSF Yachtmaster 42 (I prefer it to the submariner date), and will wait for the other VSF versions (No date, Hulk and the two tones).

After that, I think I can rest a bit, because these reps are amazing.

Does anyone have a watch in-hand that has the fixed rehaut? I know there's one person who showed QC pics where it looked better, but I'm yet to see one that someone has received that it's straightened out.

its not exactly fixed from what you can see it looks like they shifted the movement so the first letter looks aligned but in the other markets it is not 100% aligned i will shifted mine a bit so I can look bit better.
