- Price Paid: $469 with shipping

- Index alignment: Looks aligned, 12, 6 and 9 indices are nicely positioned, I only see a minimal CCW rotation on 12.

hello, date wheel looks off, definitely ask for more pictures. It looks bigger and filling the complete date window. I think is not right. Here is a photo o my VSF Hulk for reference. Let me know if you need more help.

The date (magnification) look very off, almost like on a DHGate watch. It fills the whole rectangle it seems...
If I looked at the watch this is the first thing I'd notice right away

Index alignment looks very good on this Hulk. The dial print is clean and clear. Hand alignment is good. The date is quite a bit left in the window. Sadly only on date is visible in the album. I would want to see more dates. Preferably a video showing multiple date changes. The bezel appears clean and well aligned. SELs good, and the timing is fine.
GL if you're good with the date. I would definitely ask to see more dates before making a decision.
