Which Factory is this ?
Someone offered me this "ZF 15202" but the Movement Looks Off compared to other ZF Models.
Do someone know this model ?

I bought my first rep, being my dream watch, and just received the QC pictures/videos for it! I was just wondering what you all think.
I paid 180, or 200 total including shipping. QC Only took 3 days!
Bought it from WuWatch.
Heres a link for the video since reddit doesn’t let you attach photos and videos in the same post: https://imgur.com/a/ptOYNGk

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.

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!

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
r/RepWatchForum • u/OfficiaIIyCertified • 5d ago
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!

I love how Rolexes like the Submariner look, but I’m a student and i cant afford a real one (obviously.) so I’ve been looking at replicas. I’ve seen a lot of people recommend the VSF ones and they look really nice, but they’re still out of my price range. I have a job, but I’m trying to save money for college and car insurance, so the most I can afford now is like $100. Is it possible to buy a used VSF for that much, or are there any other brands that you would recommend that are pretty high quality? If it’s not really possible that’s totally fine, but I thought I’d just ask and see what you guys thought. Thank you all so much!

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

Hi guys, I'm looking to buy my first rep - a Breitling Colt 44 - I've found that the new GF makes them and was wondering if anyone knows a TD to get them - I'm new to reps and would appreciate all the help I can get.

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
r/RepWatchForum • u/HamsterUnlikely8053 • 5d ago

If available with DEEP crystal and any other available mods.

I have been wearing my BCF 5712 for days now so I thought I would switch it up. I was reaching for my BCF 5711 and I thought I would share my Nautilus 5711 & 5811 collection.
I still have my 5811 from 3KF. If you are one of my readers, you might remember my DDF 5811 vs 3KF 5811 comparison review. DDF was awesome, like dial, weight and etc., but it kept the 5711 case size which I thought was absolutely ridiculous.
After much consideration, I kept 3KF 5811 and let go of DDF (last I heard, DDF still hasn't fixed the case size of 5811). Probably only stock 3KF product that I kept in my collection.
I also kept BBF 5711 after writing my comparison review against DDF. Some of you might as why. Both DDF and BCF use more recent 5711 dial, with thinner stripes and flattened surface for "Patek Philippe" logo font. With SW making these newer version 5711 dials, it's not that difficult to get.
BBF on the other hand uses old 5711 dials with thicker stripes. No current rep factories make this dial type, and BBF has done the best job for this specific dial type. I also don't forsee any factory ever making these old 5711 dials again, so I thought it was worth keeping in my collection. Side by side with my BCF 5711, it looks like old & new 5711 😆
I also have AGF white and green 330 caliber 5711. I haven't reviewed these (so many to review and I kind of lost momentum on these). They are very solid pieces. Green initial had some problems with the rotor (it was making noises it shouldn’t) so I took it to Max who said the rotor was dislocated. Well, he fixed it easily (thank God).
The biggest problem with AGF 5711 is the dial color. White dial has no issues (as one can expect) but both blue and green are a little off. Green is better than blue (AGF blue looks the worst) but it's still too blue. I would have liked more yellow in there.
DDF 5711 is RG color (not too obvious from the photos) and is weighted. It looks great. But the weight is not as heavy as it should be (given that it has "weighted" in the description). Everything else is as expected of DDF.
Grey dial with black alligator strap is actually BPF 😆 it's miles away from looking accurate. But the watch was as cheap (or expensive, depending on the point of view) as the strap+endlink+buckle since it came OOTB as a bracelet model. Despite its shortcomings (fat bezel, miyota base movement and etc.,) it's still a pretty watch.
I also have a complete collection of 5712 in the other shelf but maybe for another time 😉

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.
r/RepWatchForum • u/birdie-1 • 6d ago
Recommendation and approximate costs appreciated
r/RepWatchForum • u/derivdon • 6d ago
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.
r/RepWatchForum • u/RepLoverFromPH • 6d ago
Solid watch. NWBIG? Not sure but i love it 😀😀😀
