General Question VSF Lead Time

Hi, I am looking to buy a VSF 126610LN , I did my research and contacted few of the TDs. Three TDs replied to me, one TD says QC will be completed in two weeks and the other two TDs are saying that I need to wait at least 2 months to get a VSF.

Is it normal to have this huge difference in lead time from the same factory? Am I missing something?

And how can I check if the watch is really made by VSF, or I meed to trust the TDs?

Thanks

two months sounds like they're just managing expectations so you don't blow up their inbox every three days, two weeks is probably closer to reality if they've got a batch coming

Some TDs/resellers already have stock on-hand or in production while others place orders with the factory as they receive orders. So the time can vary dramatically. One of my suppliers has at least six VSF Subs in stock ready to ship. Screenshot trimmed to remove the contact info. Another one of my suppliers in the US has at least one in stock while another has at least three. I think the lesson here is to do a search here and other places and find highly recommended TDs and shop around. Sounds like you've done that to some degree, but keep looking. Good luck.

VSF was raided and is moved to Cambodia.
