VSF will release 4 Crpo with their 8500 super clone movement

[Rooneey]

sunnydale looking nice!
Anyone knows if the orange version looks as flawless as grey one please?

Grey is lovely, but i would prefer orange to be honest (unless orangeis not as good as this one)

I hate the waiting game. Payed 9/11 for a 42mm silver numbers, still no QC...

kobe24 hey man, do you know if VSF plans to release any other crpo with their clone movements? Really hoping for the one in titanium and blue ceramic

Just got mine today, not time to post photos yet. Initial thoughts - I've just sold and posted off my 2-year-old Noob today. I think the bracelet feels a bit better on the Noob and definitely the Omega engraving on the clasp.

This feels a bit flimsy when you adjust the time and to adjust the date the hour hand moves, I don't think the AR is quite as good as some have said either.

having said all that the reason for buying and improvements are the font on the dial - more gen like and the movement looks way better.

I think I need to oil the bracelet as it has that rep feel, what's the best thing to use? WD40? baby oil?

I've used a can of spray silicone lubricant before. Think that's the best option.

Buy a $30 ultrasonic jewelry cleaner to use rather than an oil bath.

This will just kill Noob sales, it is in every way better than it! Maybe the crown is working better in Noob but that is not a problem.

Awesome watch! I noticed that the date is mid-way through cycling at 11 o'clock in the pics. How long does it take to completely cycle?

I think it starts at around 11 or so, earlier than genuine but changes at 12.

Here is my 45.5mm vsf. Just got it earlier today. Looks prett awesome, but i'm a bit underwhelmed by the crown action. Haven't tried it on the bracelet yet, but the rubber is quite nice. For others with the 8500 how is the time keeping performing so far?

Just received QC from InTime. Order placed 2 September.

Awaiting some more pics of the dial logo and Omega writing. Can barely see them on the QC and also a pic of the rubber strap, but otherwise looks good to me.

Mine is running at -1.7 s after a day. Hard to beat that. The bezel action is not the best, but the overall look of the watch on the wrist is awesome.

What's wrong with the bezel action? Is it a 42 or 45mm

 

[Omega_guy123]

Should the Omega logo on the crown be facing the correct way when fully screwed in or not?


Never noticed if gens are, mines upside down when screwed in

Mine is 45mm. Hard to explain, just has more movement to it than it should

That's strange, the bezel action on mine is almost exactly the same as gen. Maybe a touch stiffer.

Sorry to sound dense but how is a 45mm watch measured? Is it the width of the glass or the case from button end to button end. I asked as got my 45mm watch today and it appears to be the same size as my 42mm watches?
