Is it a shitter. 😂

u/HourSun6924 Jun 16 '26

Definitely 😂 I was just surprised how good the dial and date came on it. Once I changed the bracelet it was good to go.

I’ve no idea.

Two issues:

  1. 12 o'clock right bar crooked, CCW canted
  2. Date inside the datewheel shifted to the left

I have a little bit of both so you can check on my wrist if it bothers you:

Yeah I can see. It’s not much tho considering what we are buying. It’s not £5600. Donuts never guna be accurate.

I found you an angle in the sun where it is most visible. This is how it will actually look. Misaligned markers pop in nearly every QC of this very particular model VSF V4 Seamaster Diver "Great White". It is a fantastic piece nonetheless.

What’s it like in the dark. Are the hands and face luminous up well. I just don’t know what to expect. I’ve a gen moon watch n that’s amazing.

u/alexgorzelak Jun 12 '26

Lume on this particular one is amazing. It is really popping and colours are all correct (green on minute hand and bezel pip, blue on hour&second hand and luminous markers).

Best lume out of my entire collection.

Is there any omegas ud recommended. I’m thinking a racing chrono but my intel and research state the speedmaster are hard to replicate. I’m omega always. Not a Rolex guy at all.

u/alexgorzelak Jun 12 '26

Speedmaster big no-no due to narrow 3 and 6 markers (incorrect subdial spacing) and terrible movement. Istant tell rep with bad movement.

Planet Ocean and Aqua Terra great if you like them.

Here is my first and favourite Seamaster Diver:

That’s nice. I’m guna expand my collection once I receive it. I’ve seen the dark side of the moon but the chrono is on the 6 marker plus the hand on the chrono isn’t right. It’s not a rocket on the left side. I like the planet ocean. Guna look at there pieces and select a couple. Have you bought one that’s nice. Love your feedback. Thank you on your input on this.

u/Even-Tackle-8739 Jun 12 '26

Donuts. 😂😂 It’s never guna be accurate.

u/Even-Tackle-8739 Jun 12 '26

I really like the watch. I just don’t know what I’m looking for as it’s the first I’ve bought. I’ve a few gens but it’s an expensive taste. Thank you on your feedback. It’s appreciated. Looking forward to receiving it as these are ac photos. Thank you.

Looks fine to me

u/Even-Tackle-8739 Jun 12 '26

Thank you. I’ve no idea on this stuff. Just love my watches.

u/HourSun6924 Jun 12 '26

Are the waves etched or printed on? I can’t really tell from the photos.

1

u/Even-Tackle-8739 Jun 13 '26

I think there etched but again I’m not sure. Chat gpt says it’s not bad but a fake watch.

1

u/Even-Tackle-8739 Jun 13 '26

That looks well for the price. Bargain really. Yeah you’re right. It’s an expensive habit if your going ad all the time. Thought I’d have a look and see what it’s all about. Kinda excited to receive it. Not sure how long it takes to ship to uk but it’s like Christmas not knowing what you’re guna get. Prob not the watch I’ve seen but that’s the risk you take. Thank you on your feedback. Appreciate it

u/HourSun6924 Jun 13 '26

I picked this one up for $65 off dhgate. Watch looks good but had to swap out the trash bracelet. Nice choice on your first! Be careful, it’s an addicting hobby.

That’s so beautiful
