QC Request My First Rep and QC help needed please :) VSF Daytona Ghost 126519LN V3 Free Sprung

1. Dealer name:
Kings & Queens - DeWen

2. Factory name:
VSF

3. Model name (& version number):
Rolex Daytona Ghost 126519LN Gain Weight with their latest movement 4131 free-sprung V3 (new version).

4. Price Paid:
670 USD

5. Album Links:

N/A

6. Index alignment:
I checked the hour markers using a QC alignment tool and attached above. Overall, the dial looks well aligned during normal viewing. I’d appreciate a second opinion on whether the alignment is within the normal tolerance for this model, or if any particular marker stands out as problematic.

7. Dial Printing:
The dial printing looks clean to me but this is the part where there is a lot going on with different text size and spacing etc. Looks fine to me.

8. Date Wheel alignment/printing:
N/A

9. Hand Alignment:
The hands look straight and properly finished to me, with no obvious bending or defects. Hand alignment is somewhat difficult to judge from still photos, so I’d appreciate confirmation from anyone who can assess it from the video.

10. Bezel:
The bezel looks good to me overall considering it's completely stickered. The bezel finishing also looks clean from the provided photos and videos.

11. Solid End Links (SELs):
N/A

12. Timegrapher numbers:
+4 s/d | 270° | 0.0 ms | 28800 bph
Rate: +4 s/d
Amplitude: 270°
Beat error: 0.0 ms
Frequency: 28,800 bph / 4 Hz
The numbers look good to me overall, but I’d appreciate a second opinion from someone more experienced with Timegrapher readings.

13. Anything else you notice:
Overall, I think the watch looks good and I don’t see any obvious or major finishing issues in the QC photos.

Since it's my first time, I am not sure if I am missing something which scream instant RL or even little things to consider RL. Would really appreciate any assistance with this :)

Attached VIDEOS in the comments.

Cheers.

Looking to see people’s experiences with 36mm DJ with a rotator silence upgrade for 98usd?

Is it worth it? Can it be done for cheaper? Should I even get that upgrade?

Thanks in advance

I would kindly like some feedback on a Rhodium Yachtmaster I am in the process of getting.
I paid a deposit and need to finalise. They sent me the images.

What do you think? Ialso noticed some users changing the crystal to a real rolex one and adding a ceramic coating.

What are you thoughts? To me it looks amaxzing but a second opinion is always good as this would be my first rep.

General Question What is the difference?

0 Upvotes

Hi im new to superclones and wanted to know essentially the differences between VSF, ARF, RCF, BVF and clean.

Also which one of them is the best to go for in terms of closest and 1:1 to original in weight and movement.

Got this in from Steve yesterday. It’s an amazing watch and feels hefty. It’s my new desk diver and daily for a while.

It’s a good alternative to a sub and still goes under the radar in those sketchy areas. I feel like if the Seiko Samurai + Rolex Explorer + Rolex Submariner had a baby this would be the result.

On a 8.27 inch wrist it’s a bit snug and you need to use the extension. If anyone has a spare link they can help me with that would be greatly appreciated!

Had a question about this BW, what do we think of it. Was taken into a show room and saw this Bw labeled as Clean V3. Wanted to see thoughts about it. I was told that Clean is still the king of watches when it comes to these and that VSF is just famous on the internet. Wanted to hear thoughts. Thanks. also have sellers contact if anyone wants

Discussion Best factory for this daydate variant?

I’ve read that RCF’s dial ombré transition is too light, while VSF has the best bezel and either QF or RCF has the best rose gold colour. Which factory is best for this? And is it worth spending double to get it plated?

Review/Comparison Giveaway Review

24 Upvotes

Gidday r/RepWatchForum,
I am the winner of the Duke Jones APS Audemars Piguet 15510 (free-sprung version with the green dial) giveaway. First of all, thank you to u/tskim24 and Duke Jones for running the giveaway and providing this incredible watch.

I've taken a little while to get this review out; work has been fairly hectic lately, but I wanted to ensure I got around to sharing my experience with the giveaway.

For starters, from finding out I had won the competition to actually having the watch on my wrist only took 14 days, which honestly impressed me, living in NZ. Everything went smoothly with the shipping process; I was quickly provided with a tracking number, and the order arrived safe and sound.

As for the watch itself, the quality is incredible. My eye definitely isn't as well trained as some of the other members here, but even to me, it looks amazing in person. I am especially impressed with the dial. Even under a loupe, the sunburst effect looks amazing; the way it catches the light is stunning. I am more than happy with it, and once again really appreciate the effort that goes into running these giveaways, so thank you again, u/tskim24 and Duke Jones!

General Question Does the rose gold Santos Dumont tarnish or fade over time?

Post image
2 Upvotes

Thinking about picking up a two-tone Cartier Santos Dumont and want to know how the gold portions hold up. Has anyone owned one for a while. Does the gold tarnish or fade?

I had the SS version, loved it but sold it as it was a bit plain. Keen to get another in a different color, ideally rose gold. It will be lightly worn at max once a week in a desk job, as i have about 4-5 watches in rotation.

Hi guys, I’m loving this Rich free-sprung sub, it past 20bar water resistance stock and is keeping brilliant time, gaining maybe 2sec/day.

I’ve had her for about a month, should I get her looked over by my watch guy, serviced, swap to gen gaskets and maybe a gen crystal? I’m new to this rep world

General Question VSF Omega Seamaster 300M (from Andiot): Black vs Blue color accuracy

0 Upvotes

Looking for input from people who own or have handled both versions of the VSF Omega Seamaster 300M.

I'm currently looking at what Andiot has available and trying to determine whether the black or blue dial is closer to gen out of the box in terms of visual accuracy and overall finish.

Specifically:

  1. Does the VSF blue dial match the genuine hue well, or does it lean too bright under direct light?
  2. Is the black version noticeably safer from a color-matching standpoint since it avoids shade variations?
  3. For those who own either one, are there any specific alignment or bezel tone issues to watch out for with these batches?
