lap9387 1 Posted October 16, 2019 Really really really tempted by this. There is a lot of noise about how good the VSF reps are compared to the gen, so at $358, its not too bad at all. http://www.trustytime01.cc/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=35_66&products_id=20418 This looks gorgeous... I just dont know if anyone has one? I cant find any reviews for it... Im going to order a v2 black one with it... but this would make a gorgeous formal watch! does anyone have any comments before i order one? (Constructrive or helpful, not sarcastic ) look forward to replies as always.... PS thanks for the help on the seadweller; pics will be added when it arrives!

fatarms 7,777 Posted October 16, 2019 There's an entire thread dedicated to this watch over at RWI in the Omega section. Complete with photos and reviews. I'm holding out waiting for the YG/SS blue version from VSF. Hoping that comes out soon. I saw that OMF put one out, but waiting to see if the VSF is any better.

thejudge 29 Posted October 16, 2019 Also bear in mind there is a new Bond watch coming out so they maybe re-purposing the parts for that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(Constructrive or helpful, not sarcastic ) I have this watch in stainless steel. I’ve had it for about two weeks now. Very good quality, I don’t have any complaints. Actually thinking about buying the two-tone that you have pictured next My advice is go for it And if you don’t like it you can always p.m. me and list it on M2M and I will purchase Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Intresting 21,710 Posted October 20, 2019 Do you have gold fading issues with 2 tones? This is my only reason for holding out on them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have a couple of two tones and both of them still look great. I hear a lot of talk about the gold fading but personally have not had that problem. I steer away from all gold reps because they usually have too many ware areas and they always seem to look over the top to me. Although I would consider all gold on a strap!

Like a rose gold daytona on strap. I just worry that the gold will wear quickly (they must be so thin!) especially at the joints and bends. It will then really look like crap.

There’s a great thread over on RWI about gold plated, gold filled, gold rolled. If you believe the article here’s a little fun fact, there is no actual gold in any of these Gold plated watches.

Will9614 0 Posted October 20, 2019 Currently looking at getting the blue ceramic dial from intime, but after reading the the 160+ page " thread" on RWI it raises more questions than it answers.. have also searched about on here but couldn't find much specific, Any one have any brief advice with preferred TD's etc etc?
