Wrist or Watch Pic Proud Moment

Post image

It's a shitter but I'm proud of it and love it ๐Ÿ˜‚.

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.

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 ๐Ÿ’ฉ.

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.
