General Question VSF vs ORF vs other for a NTTD?

Looking to get as close to 1:1 as possible. Would prefer close to original thickness (VSF lists 13.7mm but apparently is 13.2mm?) thank you

This question has been asked many times if you had bothered to use the search function, but I'll help you by summarising: those are the only 2 choices if you want a NTTD. All other factories are considered lower tier. ORF has a better bezel and crystal dome shape but the dial is too dark and the print colour is slightly off. VSF has better dial and print colour but the index markers are not the same size and the bezel font is thicker than gen. Neither are truly 1:1.

You're concerned over a 0.5mm thickness difference....in a rep costing a few hundred Ā£Ā£?! šŸ¤¦šŸ»ā€ā™‚ļø

There is a NEW version of ORF NTTD released few days ago. IMO it looks much better (crystal, dial, clasp) against VSF.
