Marine_918 0 Posted June 15, 2021 Since VSF and others have been shut/raided, what are the opinions on the next best factory to VSF in terms of the Rolex 116610LV (hulk)? From what I can find Clean Factory (previously ZZF?) seems to be pretty high standards in terms of quality. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tribefan 6,768 Posted June 15, 2021 It's more a question of what is available than what is best. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sent from my LYA-L29 using Tapatalk What are the chances of someone selling one of the '2020' versions at a reasonable price though, from what I here people are holding on to the VSF versions regardless of the make because they are like gold dust to get hold of now.

GingerApple 7,304 Posted June 15, 2021 I like this thread, very inventive! Not, 'Who has the best sub,' but 'Who has the second best Sub?' And your ploy worked, no one abused you and indeed everyone helped. You sir, are a genius! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are you suggesting we're just a bunch of profiteers on here? Because I'll have you know we do no such thing, sir! And where are you "here'ing" such vile gossip anyway?

It would make perfect sense that any of the factories that have closed permanently, the prices of those watches on the second hand market are going to go up in price due to them not been available anymore. Especially the sort after brands/makes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Flinnt 2,009 Posted June 16, 2021 I’m placing my bets on the VSF tap flowing again in a few months. Although I have plenty of VSF watches, I want plenty more. I’m kicking myself for only buying one Noob Daytona and always thinking I can buy more later. I never imagined Noob would be under threat of not returning at this point in time.

It was mostly tongue-in-cheek for the likes of the GingerPhallus, but the point about not profiteering on this site is true, anyone who tries will be tarred and feathered. So it's worth keeping your eyes on our M2M and creating a WTB post, no matter how unlikely it seems. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There will always be someone to take their place. Its a matter of time, when the market is so lucrative. Heck, the CCP might get into the action themselves.

I was the same, I bought the VSF Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean early last year and had my eye on the VSF 'Hulk' for this year but never quite got round to buying it!!! 3 hours ago, FunnyStarSystem said: It was mostly tongue-in-cheek for the likes of the GingerPhallus, but the point about not profiteering on this site is true, anyone who tries will be tarred and feathered.
