VSF will release 4 Crpo with their 8500 super clone movement

[mech500]

This looks gorgeous.. Make me want one and sell the LMPO..

Haha.

I compared the LMPO with my gen 2500 and the LMPO bracelet felt light and flimsy.

Also check out the lume application on the VSF. They could never get LMPO this crisp:

I owned a 43.5mm gen P.O (pic below for fun) and from memory this new VSF is more than good enough in terms of overall quality (without taking out a loupe)

Well love the thickness of lmpo but you are right I owned 3 lmpo and all of them have uneven lume

Ah good point. The 2500 POs wear very well on the wrist.

The models 8X00 POs are VERY thick. Not to everyone’s taste.

I may decide to go to 8500 if they release the titanium version!

Thanks for your review and great pics!

Can you show a a profile picture on a wrist?

I love it, but I'm worried about its height of almost 16mm on my 6,75 inch wrist ...

Thanks in advance!

Anyone else have received this amazing VSF planet ocean?

I also have 6.75” wrist.

The P.O thick but I like it.

Side by side with GMT (which I believe is marginally thinner than a Submariner due to lower depth rating....I think):

Thanks a lot for your pics and helpful !!

It looks very nice on wrist, a little thick for my taste but it’s amazing.

I owned a PO 42 2500, and it was very nice and comfortable on wrist... but maybe now I want to try this beauty ...

mech500 Have you handled a noob crpo bracelet before? how does this vsf stand compared to noobs? Thanks for the effort and congrats with the new watch.

I have a LMPO V5 on the way and I am having a very hard time stopping myself from getting one of these as well! Maybe I should and decide later which to sell, or keep both, hmm..... Great pics.

Extremely impressed by this rep.

Movement is winding butter smooth, quick set hour works well. Date seems to start changing over very early, 11pm on mine, completes change at 12

AR is also very good, you can barely see a crystal at some angles.

Bracelet is solid and clasps closes securely

Yes I have owned Noob and V6F CrPOs.

From memory the new VSf bracelet is comparable to the Noob in terms of quality. Not much difference from what I can recall....but I am very impressed with the heft and finish on the vsf. All screws and pins came out easily, not the usual battle to adjust the bracelet.


My VSf bracelet mid-links felt a little stiff this morning so i sprayed some WD40 on them and it’s loosened up nicely (obviously washed off the bracelet afterwards).

Hey guys What if we compare noob crpo and vrf? Vrf is much more accurate and better developed? And what do you think about the mechanisms? The mechanism of vrf it is possible to maintain it without any problems?

DANGGGG! These look sharp. Now I am really in trouble deciding which one to get as my first watch.

LMPO or VSF CRPO. I seriously need help!

I decided to get both then make the decision to sell one or keep both. My only reservation about the CrPO is thickness. But have to see how it looks first.

I spoke to Sead at Supermirrors about this: he rates the LMPO as having a better finish. Make of that what you will!

That looks great on the rubber. Only negatives are the wrong profile angle on the bracelet’s sel which is normal on Omega reps and the insert finish is not matte enough at some angles. Watch head is very well done though !

Good point. The SEL does very wear different to gen. I might try the free rubber strap today.

Can you explain what that means for a newbie like me? What is the profile angle / bracelet sel?

Another question to the owners, is the dial kind of blueish? It looks like on some pictures, then on some it looks anthrazit/black.
