3rd try. Hope I got all the requirements for a post this time!

  1. Dealer name: J-Time

  2. Factory name: VSF

  3. Model name (& version number): Daytona 116520 VSF 1:1 Best Edition 904L SS Case and Bracelet White Dial DD4130

  4. Price Paid: $648 USD

  5. Album Links: Link access fixed https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1r\_dnM-LDVMnGBsR6vAJPlJc3Dxe-uQCY

  6. Index alignment: Hard to tell. The photos are not straight on so the alignment tool doesn't overlay well. Seems a bit off maybe?

  7. Dial Printing: Seems fine to my untrained eye. This is where the experienced assistance comes in!

  8. Date Wheel alignment/printing: no date

  9. Hand Alignment: looks okay but see #6

  10. Bezel: looks like something has contaminated the bezel between 75 and 85. Some photos look like scratched due to maybe trying to remove. Please give input on this issue.

  11. Solid End Links (SELs): Probably okay.

  12. Timegrapher numbers: checked the video and referenced against the acceptable numbers. All in spec.

  13. Anything else you notice: Just the alignment and potential scratches/contamination marks on the bezel are my main concerns.

I appreciate experienced feedback from the group!

I'm working with a TD and after being told a watch was available and sending payment, I found out after 10 days this is not the case. I had ordered a blue face DJ for around $518 USD. Dealer told me after 10 days VSF doesn't have it and no eta.

Dealer sent photos of watches "in the warehouse" if I wanted to change to something else. So I picked out a Daytona and sent another $130 USD to top up the payment. 1 or 2 days was the deal for QC for the in stock watches.

Going on 3 days now. Is it normal to have this kind of experience? I'll follow up again.

My knowledge is pretty limited and I need 3 more karma points to post on repQC. Please help me out with some karma so I can get some feedback from the group when the QC info comes my way.....hopefully today.

Hey all. Does anyone have experience with gold watches and know if the gold wears off and looks terrible after a while? I've heard maybe 1 or two years is the life of this look.

I'm getting g a SS Daytona atm and please help with karma so I can post in QC!

Does anyone know where to get PVD coating on a rep Rolex? Do any of the factories offer this as an option? I'd prefer an all in one solution rather than send a watch out into the ether.
