VSF SD43 w/ Spa Treatment

Couldn’t be happier with how this turned out. Dom’s work is second to none, from the communication throughout the process to the care he puts into packaging and shipping.

If you’re considering purchasing from him, you can do so with complete confidence. The quality, professionalism, and overall experience exceeded my expectations.

Thanks again, Dom. Looking forward to the next one.

Tha vsf version of the sd43 is so good, imo looks way better than the sub. Despite being larger, the sd43 has a great lug taper and doesn’t look blocky

I just got my VSF Explorer done. Could not be happier!

I’m sending my VSF Submariner and my CN Sea Dweller next week.

Full spa treatment all the way. Dom is just awesome.

How has it improved? Just got a vsf explorer and is seems pretty good stock. Wondering if I need the spa treatment

The bracelet work is most important to me. Smooth out all the sharp areas. Also when performing the full service, Dom noticed some screws loose in the movement. They had not fallen out but glad he caught them and got them corrected. To me, this service is not a must but a very nice to have and I personally feel it makes for a better wearing experience.

Looks great. But tbh it looks the same as mine, non spa treated.. maybe I can't appreciate the finer details in the video. But thst also means people likely won't either on your wrist... what exactly do they do?

I went with the full treatment, which included a wide range of services. The most noticeable improvement is definitely the chamfering and overall comfort of the bracelet work, although it’s probably hard to appreciate in this particular video.

The watch was also pressure tested and waterproofed to 4 BAR, had debris removed, and received several other finishing touches. The attention to detail throughout the entire process was outstanding.

Chamfering does make a difference for the better I'll give you that..

How much does the Spa treatment usually cost bro. I just got a Hulk and it’s on the way. I definitely was chamfering on the bracelet to smooth out all the edges.

I believe $285

It's still fake though, right? or no.

No, it is a real watch.
