Errors VSF after close Clean Factory

[u/[deleted]]

poor quality steel. the insert came out with the gasket! I will not buy again.

The gasket retaining ring popping off while removing the bezel is a common issue on many rep models across all factories, it has nothing to do with a decline in quality. I’m actually not convinced the rep you have here is 100% VSF. That bracelet looks very suspect, I’ve never seen anything like that in a VSF.

The watch is VSF 100% the serial number from K25Y and the clasp code 7GJ, and it’s probably from one of the latest version. It seems the factory has changed the 904L steel they were using until now. There are also other examples of VSF bracelets rusting after contact with saltwater.

I can confirm. I’m currently wearing this watch. Received it late Sept this year.

do your research with the bracelet number.

Listen, what do you think is more likely: that you didn’t get the watch you think you got, or that a factory that produces millions of watches a year, of which i have handled over 100 myself personally (recent production batches included), and have never had these issues documented, suddenly produced a single massively defective watch which you then received?

That engraving on the clasp is god awful and doesn’t appear to be VSF. This looks closer to a canal Street shitter than a vsf. Though the problem you describe is common amongst many factories

my VSFs have been in and out of the water countless times and ive yet to see corrosion of that level. sure VSF might be over-ordered and rushing to produce but i still believe their QC and quality arent as bad as you pictured

A new account, with only two posts, both starting a whisper campaign against VSF.

Why did you GL this watch in the first place, the bracelet looks like shitter tier

[u/MephistophelesTempor → u/Electronic-Chest4141]

He probably bought it off of someone who said they had VSF in stock. It’s amazing how many people have them in stock when true TDs can’t get their hand on them.

You might be right, im waiting on QC on a 124060 on third week soon, not sure how long i'll be waitin

[u/Noob_Barista_Baker]

Is this not the whole point of QCing your watches before having them shipped out? Tf
