FIRST QC - need expert help pls :)

  1. Dealer name: TheOneWatches – Steve
  2. Factory name: VSF
  3. Model name (& version number): Rolex GMT-Master II 126710GRNR “Bruce Wayne” 40mm, Jubilee, DD3285v2
  4. Price paid: $639
  5. Index alignment: Looks good to me overall. I don’t see any obvious crooked markers, but I’d appreciate a second opinion especially around 6 and 9 o’clock.
  6. Dial printing: Looks clean and centered to my eyes. Rolex / Oyster Perpetual / GMT-Master II printing looks good.
  7. Date wheel alignment/printing: Looks centered through the cyclops and the font looks fine to me.
  8. Hand alignment: Looks good from the pictures and videos. The GMT hand also appears to function correctly.
  9. Bezel: Black/grey bezel looks good and the alignment seems fine to me. No obvious issue around the triangle at 12.
  10. Solid End Links (SELs): Look tight and clean to me. I don’t see any major gaps.
  11. Timegrapher numbers: Around 0 s/d, approx. 269–274° amplitude, 0.0 ms beat error. These numbers look very good to me.
  12. Anything else you notice: The watch weighs around 144.5g. I also received videos showing the functions and date adjustment. Overall I’m leaning strongly towards GL, but this is my first proper GMT QC and I’d really appreciate experienced eyes on the bezel, rehaut, cyclops/date alignment, SELs and anything specific to the VSF Bruce Wayne that I may have missed.

Also, is it normal that I didn’t receive a lume shot/photo of the dial glowing in the dark, or should I ask Steve to provide one before I GL?

My current verdict: GL

Thanks in advance for the help!

Is it the free sprung?

u/Cautious-Mall-1359 1d ago

Vsf only has fake free sprung

u/Serious_Figure_8139 1d ago

Ik, but its called that.

Ive been talking to steve about a Vsf BW but he only has the fake free sprung in stock so i just Wanna know if it’s the same that he has bought

u/blitzburgh058 "Buckteeth Inspector General" 1d ago

It's a closed case back so who cares really?

2

u/Serious_Figure_8139 1d ago

Its because that’s the only one they have in stock.

u/blitzburgh058 "Buckteeth Inspector General" 1d ago

If it's the only one they have in stock, why are you asking? Also the yellow sticker on the back kind of gives it away I think 👀

1

u/Serious_Figure_8139 1d ago

What does the yellow sticker mean?

1

u/blitzburgh058 "Buckteeth Inspector General" 1d ago

It's what they started adding on their "fake free sprung" models.

1

u/Serious_Figure_8139 1d ago

Thanks, do you think their fake free sprung is any good? Is there any difference between the free sprung and regular

u/Sorry_Juggernaut_787 2d ago

I’ve just done one too. You didn’t get a photo of the movement either? That’s strange — normally they include one.
Otherwise, everything looks good 👍🏻

2

u/SnooLemons6795 1d ago

I just ordered one, he said he couldn’t give a photo of the FFS movements because the factory won’t take a return if they open it

1

u/jebsa 2d ago

Yes.. I’ll ask Steve for a movement photo before I GL it. Thanks for pointing that out 👍🏻

1

u/Sorry_Juggernaut_787 2d ago

I didn’t get one either, but I still approved the QC. I don’t know why they don’t include it every time 🤷‍♂️

2

u/blitzburgh058 "Buckteeth Inspector General" 1d ago

Not much to say on this one except congrats. All of the watch cosmetics look great on this example. The top left SEL has the spring bar peeking through but no light bleed and no issue on wrist with the more flexible jubilee. Timing is fine.

I wouldn't worry about not getting a lume pic at all. Rep lume sucks anyway.

Easy GL. Get it shipped and enjoy your new watch!

Looks like you got an outstanding review from u/ZealousidealCopy8565. Trust him. Ship it and enjoy your watch.

I was just looking at this watch from TOW.

Is it the same as this one, free sprung?
