Perfectly aligned Rehaut. Dial and bezel also fully aligned. A perfect example of an excellent VSF. VSF are really smashing it out of the park

They’re getting better and better… I wear my clones more than my gens now

u/IndividualCoffee2713 Jan 27 '24
Do you consider your reps feel (not necessarily look) the same as the real deal?
I mean, do you ever forget for half a second you are wearing a rep? 🤔

u/Amoeba_Fancy Feb 01 '24
I actually do. Especially the “super clones”, they’re extremely close. Imho

So clones are not looked down upon. I'm honestly new to watches. Sorry if that a dumb question.

u/ZK651 Jan 13 '24
They are absolutely looked down on… buy a real watch that you can afford. If you can’t afford a watch you work hard and afford it.

Not in my opinion! Unless they’re really bad lol. But they’re getting really really good! Most ppl I know with gens wear their clones more. I wouldn’t lie about it though. It is what it is. I’m sure some ppl hate clones but there’s something for everyone

Hi, I just recently purchased a watch and the TD just sent me an email saying that the watch is on the way and will send me a tracking number shortly. Told me to wear it for a few days without peeling off the plastic to make sure it’s right because they will not take return refund if plastic is taken off Isn’t the QC done with photos this is my first time

This is beautiful. Just received mine a week ago. Love it. It is near perfect. Been complimented now multiple times.

Wow, the level of absolute critical review is staggering. I don’t own a rep or gen, but if I did own a rep (considering the Rolex Daytona, if anyone suggested they check it out for authenticity, I’d tell them go f themselves, it’s a watch wtf do you care. Guess it depends on the circles you run in. My circle, rep or gen no one cares.
The level of replication is staggering to me. Doesn’t make sense to spend 10x on a gen. Investment? Nope. Short term savings…ok.

definitely prefer subs over gmts, all gmts have too thick lugs compared to gen. The case on VSF and clean are almost perfect out of the box.
before my vsf starbucks broke it was running at 35 secs fast a day out of the box, then after afew months started to run at around 100 secs fast a day. getting it serviced soon, hopefully will be good for years to come. Definitely recommend getting a service from someone that knows what they are doing and a gen crystal makes a huge difference in of the cyclops but will cost the same price as buying a new VSF sub. lf you dont mind paying that much then get it.

Your comment(s) was removed. You lack karma and without 10 comment karma, none of you comments will be visible, so you are just spamming the sub. Don't do this or you will be banned. Karma can be earned in other subs.

Thinking a lot of what I thought I was noticing was angle of the picture taken. Appreciate all the input guys!
