Do I have proof lol. What, are we 12 years old now. Who knows for sure, we will see as time goes by won’t we. I find most Chinese will say what you want to hear to be honest anyway so either way it looks good in the pics.

We are not 12 but what's the point of sharing information that's not been corroborated.
Take it easy, guys. Let's wait until the first watches arrive and then we'll see if the bezel numbers are bright enough. In the QC pics they look as good as on my VSF Subs.
Good question, have no experience at all with sourcing those parts. At least full movements are easily available.

Just arrived. Quick shot with no filters or corrects applied so all the flaws show up.
Don't have much time tonight to take more but will do so over the coming days.

thestefster Looking good! How's the brightness of the bezel number plating in low light and how does the bracelet feel?

Brightness is good, no complaints. Can't tell the difference at a glance from my latest VSF Hulk.
Bracelet however, not as good. The clasp feels especially tinny. Manageable, but a bit of a let down. The current VSF Hulk bracelet is much better.
Some quick macro's.

Wow looking great indeed. Congrats. How is the feel and sound of the bezel turning? Please share more pics. Thanks

Is it me or is the date mag too big on these? My actually arrived today and looks like the old ARF did.

Yes it is. I thought that as well...
The other thing I noticed was that the YS in OYSTER is a bit drunk.

Yes you are right, looks a bit too big like the first ARF batch I own and updated with gen crystal.
Oyster looks also weird, didn't noticed that.

It could be just that the gasket is a bit higher causing a greater focal length but been offered another with better lower mag. Seems the ‘Y’ in Oyster is a bit odd but I doubt I’ll notice on the wrist. Replacement watch with better mag below.

You mean it sits a tiny bit higher than the other letters? It's baaarely visible, even rotated and extremely magnified, see below. No issue in my opinion.
I ordered 2 ARF and one has the magnification a bit more than other. Not a deal breaker plus I ordered one for my dad so he needs a bigger magnification so he can see it better. I am happy with the ARF. I wonder how this compares. And can the ARF Asian movement be replaced with ETA easily?

Yep - larger mag is the first thing I noticed. Compared to gen the cyclops is pretty obvious side-by-side.
Is anyone selling gen crystals for these?
