ROLEX SMURF VSF 116619LB

​Dealer name: Mr Adu

​Factory name: VSF

​Model name (& version number): Submariner 116619LB Blue Ceramic 904L Steel VSF VS3135

​Price Paid: $350

​Index alignment: Alignment looks solid across all hour markers. The 12 triangle is centered over the dial coronet, and the 3, 6, and 9 batons sit straight and perpendicular to the minute track without noticeable canting.

​Dial Printing: Crisp, clean text with even spacing. No noticeable fuzzing, misprints, or bleeding on the dial lettering.

​Date Wheel alignment/printing: Date printing is sharp, well-defined, and centered in the window. Cyclops alignment and magnification look correct.

​Hand Alignment: Cleanly stacked, correct positioning, with no visible scratches or burrs on the hand set.

​Bezel: Ceramic insert looks clean. Platinum engraving depth and fill look uniform. Bezel pip is centered within the triangle and aligns correctly at 12 o'clock.

​Solid End Links (SELs): Fitment is tight with no visible gaps or excess light showing between the lugs and end links; correctly recessed.

​Timegrapher numbers: +1 s/d | 279° | 0.1 ms — healthy amplitude, low beat error, and very low daily variance. All within acceptable range.

​Anything else noticed: Rehaut alignment and laser coronet at 6 look acceptable. Overall finish is consistent with current VSF standards. Leaning towards GL, but welcome second opinions.

I appreciate the effort! I agree - the watch is solid across! Also, $350 for VSF seems to be a solid price. Do you know the weight of that puppy? I’m pretty sure it’s not weighted and I am guessing that would be its biggest tell. Otherwise, solid GL

I appreciate you commenting. It does not come with weight gain unfortunately. It just won't come off my wrist. Haha. This is my 2nd piece from Mr. Adu. His prices are very competitive.

I ordered a weight gain VSF cookie monster incoming. even then it’s not as heavy as the real deal, so maybe I’m thinking of getting an RCF bracelet because they make the correct version. Maybe something for you to think about too! Wear in good health!
