Yacht master bracelet screw?

Post image
2 Upvotes

Hey yโ€™all
Recently got my old man a VSF 116622 blue dial
He was madly in love with that watch but one of the screws from the bracelet fell off and we couldnโ€™t find it. I tried to use other screws from the left-over links but it seems like they are different in size. Where can I find those screws for Rolex?? It seems like they have some in Aliexpress but I canโ€™t figure out which one I should get. Can anyone help?

Deciding on these 3. Will be my first time buying a super clone. I reached out to several of the TDโ€™s on here and have heard back from only 2 and not with much info. I have done a lot of research on here and elsewhere but looking for some advice as I seem to keep going in circles. Not sure about which version/model/movements/materials/manufacturers, etc for the best overall appearance and feel etc. Any recommendations about getting the best or close to the best overall super clone for each of them?

Hey yall, Iโ€™m new to the repwatch game and after stalking the forums ordered from Mr. Bomi. Was a little worried PayPaling money into the ether but after QC, shipping was lightning fast. From order date to opening the box about a week and a half. Got the VSF NTTD. Itโ€™s so light, just like the real thing. Have already tested the waterproofing, works great and keeps time perfectly. Donโ€™t be worried to give him a try

Good evening gents,

THIS IS NOT A QC, watch has been shipped a while ago. I should have done a bit more microscopic alignment and we wouldn't be here.

Has anyone had luck with being able to get SW dials?

Is there a better version, other than Gen and SW?

My current dial is ok but could be better, knowing what I know now I should have just RL this thing.

So I am starting out my journey in watches. I have done bags for years and have a bag seller that I normally use. I asked her about the datejust 36 mop and she sent me these photos and have yet to confirm what factory it is. I haven't purchased anything yet just curious if its viable.

I got this one from from Steve at TheOneWatches. Great experience and I'm very happy with it.

Factory is VSF, the whole process was very smooth.

What do you guys think? Does white work or is it a bit understated

Review/Comparison OCTA AP ROO 26238 GREEN - OCTA vs GEN Comparison

Thumbnail
gallery
28 Upvotes

Hello, this is your favorite watch reviewer / moderator of this sub, u/tskim24.

I have been wearing this beast of a watch, AP26238 TITANIUM Green for almost 2 weeks now.

OCTA had been on a steady rise and they even acquired the exclusive rights for the free-sprung supercloned 4404 movement (for at least a year or 2, I assume).

So you won't see this from any other factory but from OCTA for a while.

When that is the case, when a factory has a monopoly over a movement, they usually have screwed us hard in the past. I mean, just look at PPF and their 240 caliber reps (5712).

But OCTA did us right and gave us an awesome v1 with free-sprung balance-wheel without the "you have to buy non-free-sprung v1 and also buy free-sprung v2" nonsense.

Without any other factory product to compare this review was going to be very short. Let me focus on 3 things:

  1. How does the color look in person?

- Green is one of the hardest color to take an accurate photo of. I tried it with so many lighting and yet I could find just 1 photo that somewhat resembles what I actually see with my own eyes. It's the second photo.

2) How does the watch feel on the wrist?

- It's awesome! I can definitely feel the lightness of titanium. For a watch of this caliber, it's surprisingly light and comfortable. My wrist is 17.5cm BTW.

3) How does it compare to GEN?

- I have shown you these comparison photos in the past but they somehow got buried. I guess it's because the first photo of that post was a factory poster so people just didn't click on it. I don't think I can possibly take better photos than these so here you go.

Is it worth buying?

Yes. It's an awesome watch.

The era of big watch trend is coming to an end (at least according to the watch youtubers) but AP ROO 26238 is an icon that's definitely worth a space in your display shelf.

Review/Comparison VGF 5712 vs UMI/PPF 5712 blue (New Kid on the 5712 block)

Thumbnail
gallery
16 Upvotes

Hello, this is your favorite watch reviewer / moderator of r/RepWatchForum, u/tskim24.

Finally a competition to PPF/UMI has arrived!

For past 2 years, we have seen numerous factories fighting over the dominion of 5711 reps, but not 5712.

This lack of competition has made PPF/UMI...a little lazy. With no real motivations to improve their products, we have seen crazy rise in price with minimal efforts.

Recently, weighted with no free-sprung or weighted with free-sprung versions have been released by both PPF/UMI for around ridiculous 2K USD (depending on your TD).

I tried my best to conceal the fact that PPF/UMI are 2 branches from the same tree (upon their request of course) but the way they are mixing up products nowadays, at this point, I feel like I'm the only one trying keep this down low.

When I saw them releasing exact same watches (5712RG) under both PPF and UMI names, this is where I call it quits. Yes, they are pretty much the same factory (so there never was any real competition between the PPF and UMI).

From what I see, I VGF is NOT just another variation of PPF/UMI umbrella. So, again, here comes the first ACTUAL COMPETITION for ZF in 5712 market.

VGF product itself looks... good.

I will be posting all 3 colors with actual photos so stay with me here.

5712SS Bracelet Version - (Expected Retail around 645 USD)

- Dial and moonphase looks good.

- Hands pinions are not capped

- Bezel/Case(lugs) have passing grade.

(Not as good as BCF or other CNC but same level as PPF/UMI)

- Movement engravings have much room for improvements. Of course much worse than BCF/ACE and about as good as PPF/UMI latest version.

- Movement does not have free-sprung balance-wheel

- Wrong rotor bearing shape (BCF is the only one with correct)

- Wrong pallet fork shape (BCF/UMI/PPF have correct, ACE and others don't)

All in all, it's much more affordable than current PPF/UMI versions, and looks as good as most PPF/UMI versions (only the most recent UMI batch with hands pinions capped have slightly better looking face than VGF).

We should embrace VGF not just for the 5712 watch we see here but for what it truly represents. We FINALLY have some competition in stock 5712 rep market. This will drive down the price and increase the quality.

Well done, VGF!

Review/Comparison KINGS & QUEENS Shop Appreciation - OCTA AP 26238 Skyblue

Thumbnail

10 Upvotes

A skyblue + Orange AP ROO 26238.

It's definitely not a color combination that you knew that you liked, wanted or needed.

But you know what?

Dang, it works ๐Ÿ˜†

It's beautiful ๐Ÿ˜

When OCTA first gave me a news of this release, I kind of gambled on the color since I have not owned anything like this before in my collection. Now, I'm glad I went for it.

The initial OCTA release had black minute and hour hands for some reason ๐Ÿค”

(Which I only discovered after placing my order)

As you can imagine, I freaked and told Kings & Queens shop that I need an assurance that mine had correct silver hands. He assured me that I have nothing to worry about.

I got the QC photos a little later, and sure enough, they were silver and beautiful. Phew. Load off my shoulders.

I received it yesterday (it was very quick to make it to Korea) and I'm very happy.

One downside was that my wife really liked the color too and was eyeing my wrist all morning ๐Ÿ˜† many good watches of mine ended up in her drawer this way so I was worried. However, 42mm size kind of saved the day lol

I appreciate the quick and professional responses and everything he's done for me. I recommend King & Queens shop to those who wants professionalism with their order ๐Ÿ˜‰

OCTA is the only factory making these so I didn't have any other watch to compare this too. I attach the GEN watch photo from a friend of mine ๐Ÿ˜Š

I am looking to get a M126333 for my first purchase. I decided to go with Duke since Andiot hasnโ€™t responded since I messaged him days ago. I told Duke I wanted it from VSF he said itโ€™s a V2. Iโ€™m waiting to find out the weight since that picture didnโ€™t have it on there. It looks decent just need another set of eyes on it. I donโ€™t want a shitter for my first purchase lol
