They were nice but the crown guards were never bang on for a savant like me.
So with all that said, why do you continue to champion the VSF as having (in your own words) an amazing crystal, DW and hands, then proceed to spend I imagine $1k + changing/modding all three?
I’ll not be doing any of that, out the box it’s good enough for a Submariner savant like me. I’m not tying to fool anyone, if you want to pull the wool, put as many genuine parts on that you can find - but it’s still a rep. Out the box, leave it there, it’s really very impressive out the box. Put it next to a real one and you will need a loupe and 20/20 vision to see any major shortfall.

Because regardless if a watch is good out of the box, I would always change those parts in any rep. Gen parts will always be superior to rep parts no matter how good they get. As I said after owning a Gen the things that matter to you change. Also I decided to mod as I will be using my spare vsf parts on another built, sweet upgrade. Having a watch that's 99% gen like for 1/10 of the price it's a pretty sweet deal to me. The more you know, the further you go.
Sometimes that more ignorant you're the more money you either save or spend lol
Thank you captain obvious, that’s a redundant kop out, of course upgrading to gen parts is always going to elevate a watch and yield better results. That doesn’t change the fact that you’re steadfastly continuing to crow that the VSF is “amazing” and the “best”, how amazing can they be if you’re replacing them entirely?
Also, 99% gen? Do you want to re-think that number.
You should stay at zf thread. Zzzzzz
Flippant childish remarks, the last refuge of somebody with no credible argument. I’m done replying to your cognitive dissonance and blanket statements, clogging up good threads. With that said, I hope you mature and grow up soon.
I think I’ll put genuine spring bars on my bracelets, they can and will be better than the cheap rep ones, that’s about it for me!
