NFleischer 4,355 Posted March 13, 2021 I recently upgraded my Noob V6 Hulk (right) to the '5 star reviewed' VSF. My GF was beneficiary of older Noob which she loves. I have to say the Noob after about 6-7 years held up well, still running strong. Dial and rehaut crisper on VSF but in person not so dramatic. Hype about 904 SS and 316 SS also a bit overdone IMO, again not so dramatic in the flesh. My point, we get swept up by marketing, every update V5-V6 whatever is the new grail. That's not to say reps haven't improved over past few years, which they have. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GingerApple 7,272 Posted March 13, 2021 I've not got the best eyes; more likely my fuck up. Or an unclear/misleading pic perhaps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GingerApple 7,272 Posted March 13, 2021 Those markers for example look like sharp right angles instead of nicely rounded edges - or is it just the pic? The VSF Crystal should be an obvious giveaway too - a very good black hole. And the bezel insert should be way nicer than the Noob across different light sources - is it?

NFleischer 4,355 Posted March 13, 2021 Here's an earlier picture in direct light. Perhaps bezel and dial are somewhat darker, fading? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GingerApple 7,272 Posted March 13, 2021 The markers look a lot rounder there. That first pic, they look like they could take your eyes out! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NFleischer 4,355 Posted March 13, 2021 I’m pretty sure Andrew sent right watch. Colors change in different lighting. Seems a bit darker now? My point was 7 year old watch still pretty good and how I’m prone to hype. For extreme nitpicking, go on RWI. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

God, your eyesight is good! Which is surprising, as I thought you’d be blind as a bat since I’ve heard too much masturbation makes you go blind 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Exactly what I thought as well:-) The second picture clears it up, I do fancy a VSF myself they are great Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NFleischer 4,355 Posted March 13, 2021 Thanks, anyone heard of fading bezel/dial with VSF? I know that happens with other factories sometimes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
banditeleven2 0 Posted June 29, 2021 ZZF might be worth a go, if you can source one. IMO the best Hulk rep out of the "box". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
