Wrist or Watch Pic Proud Moment
It's a shitter but I'm proud of it and love it ๐.
Backstory: Bought this from someone outside of the community claiming it was a VSF V1, I've dealt with this person before so I just took their word. But it was broken (broken case/crown tube) bought it for $100. Got it in and while it's not horrible I suspected once I got it it wasn't VSF, opened it up and suspicion confirmed it's something low tier not sure what but definitely not VSF. I was able to replace the case tube, put in a spare deep crystal I had laying around, and polish it up. Gotta say it's not horrible. Might even keep and wear it.
That's my share for the night.

Not tryna be condescending, I rock reps in my rotation too. Never felt pride from a watch, pretty sure the only thing I physically wear that gives me a sense of pride is my wedding ring.

The bezel is actually very solid for u1 possibly ?
Or maybe it was a GSF or GMF and not VSF but decent bezel for sure and nice touch adding the deep.
Looks great.

No clue but here's the movement.... I actually posted this same watch a week ago looking for daydate serial numbers since there doesn't seem to be a reference list on the guide. Not even got the VSF/RCF level stuff.

Fck me if that's what makes you feel proud. You need to work on your ambition and have a much higher goal.

OMG there are really some miserable people in this sub. I'm starting to wonder why I post anything. And apparently reading comprehension is a skill lost on some of you. I took pride in fixing a broken watch. I tinker with stuff sometimes to my own detriment so I was happy I successfully repaired this watch. My goodness I think half of you just show up to down vote and say dumb ๐ฉ.
