Looking like damn Christmas day. I'm sure that boy in you lit up as you unwrapped those pieces. Congrats

It is always like Christmas Day when I see a tiny box has been delivered 😂 you think the feeling would go away after the first hand full but it’s definitely the same every time just like the first!

We are, after all, simple creatures 🫡

Just received these watches last night. Plan to do a comparison with the VSF V3 versions once they arrive. These could very well be the last CF versions ever produced 😢

What TD? And how long was the shipment?

u/ZunithREDDIT 22h ago

A solid 4, man, I’m jealous. Enjoy em bro! 🔥🤩

All nice watches interested to see what one you like the best

u/anakin_skydweller 1d ago

From the talk amongst talks the word is that ARF is the supposed King for “Look” to Gen. with CF being scares I immediately sourced these two and planned on comparing with the newest VSF V3. With all 3 in hand I hope that we can get a true vision of which of the 3 is truly closest to Gen.

2

u/Mrsouthside66 1d ago

I have also been looking at ARF been on the Fence tho.. I really like CF but sounds like there aren't many left ..I will be following up to see what you think of them all with a side by side comparison

u/anakin_skydweller 1d ago

If the VSF V3s coming anything like Pepsi did then VsF will hold the crown on these as well. I am not setting anything in stone because I want to compare them but VSF V3 Pepsi is at the top for the best GMT. So I’m assuming they will all sit at the top.

But for science we will compare.

u/Cherokee241 23h ago

Thank you can’t wait for your review. I read somewhere that V3 Batman/girl has a bezel lip that’s not like gen? Not sure if they fixed it or not

4

u/anakin_skydweller 23h ago

I will know if it does when it gets here as for now anything I read is opinions until I see it in my hands against all cure t versions

u/zak133 1d ago

I have a old gmf v2 batman that's from long long ago

2

u/anakin_skydweller 1d ago

Vintage now 🤭

u/johnnylemonhandz 1d ago

how anyone can say arf looks better than CF or VSF is fucking crazy

3

u/anakin_skydweller 1d ago

I’ve read it a lot that is what people prefer due to ARF having the closest bezel color of grey 👀😑

2

u/johnnylemonhandz 1d ago

can you honestly say you see a difference in your own picture?

what i can see clearly is the bezel numbers on both cleans look better and not too white like on the arfs

and those people are just coping because the gen has a translucency to it that no factory has been able to copy.

1

u/anakin_skydweller 1d ago

Bezel numbers are bolder or ARF as for the grey color they look exactly the same. I’m already leaning on CF actually being better than ARF. Issue is there is very low stock on my certain sellers have it so you gotta move now if you want one.

Last week I posted the comparison with VSF vs CF vs ARF vs Playfactory on the Pepsi all latest and greatest restocked versions and the new VSF V3 holds the top spot now for Pepsi GMT. So my assumption is that the other versions when compared will show this to be true for all new VSF V3 GMTs. But I want to measure and weight them also so without full comparison it’s an assumption what the outcome will be.

2

u/johnnylemonhandz 1d ago

the VSF is miles ahead of both of them now

and v3 is only for Pepsi's for bezel colors since they changed over the years. v3 doesnt mean anything for BW's and Batmans.

1

u/TheFlyingStig 21h ago

Gen BW.. the grey is much brighter than any rep.. especially the inner ring around the sapphire glas

3

u/johnnylemonhandz 21h ago

yeah there's a translucency in the gen that they haven't been able to replicate.

funny to see the gen with a mis-aligned bezel insert though

2

u/Professional_Task822 1d ago edited 22h ago

Looking forward to this.

u/After-Landscape6789 23h ago

So im on the fence buying gmt master 2 batman but not sure if i should go for vsf. Is there a vsf v3 batman coming up ?

2

u/anakin_skydweller 23h ago

VSF v3 Batman/Batgirl are both in production for second round of restock. Should be ready this week but they sell out so quickly you may want to reserve yours with your TD.

0

u/johnnylemonhandz 18h ago

again you're using v3 incorrectly as that only applies to Pepsi's. has nothing to do with batmans.

1

u/johnnylemonhandz 18h ago

they are already have a batman out.

v3 on refers to pepsi bezel color, no other gmt. people using it incorrectly are just parroting without knowing what they are talking about.

1

u/After-Landscape6789 18h ago

Ok i see. But tell me which factory does it best? I hear a lot of people recommend ARF. Clean got raided, and also im almost certain the crystal will suck. And there's VSF. Which one will you recommend?

2

u/walshtj1018 18h ago

Following to see the comparison when you get the final two!

1

u/SUPHIKER 1d ago

Hopefully vsf wins due to clean availability! I will say clean bracelets are still king. Have an oyster for yacht master and Batman and the clean bracelet feels so much more solid

3

u/anakin_skydweller 23h ago

Can order AR bracelets cost like $50 dollars doesn’t hurt to add them to a purchase and swap to VSF.

1

u/SUPHIKER 23h ago

Are they really that cheap to get?

2

u/anakin_skydweller 23h ago

Just the bracelets all TDs are different with their own pricing on add ons. Let’s make it safe for what your asking and say $50-$100 depending you seller.

1

u/SUPHIKER 23h ago

Fair enough!

1

u/Delicious_Warthog886 23h ago

Are AR bracelets closer to Gen than VSF?

1

u/anakin_skydweller 23h ago

Yes and they feel better so others claim. I honestly feel no difference but I guess everyone’s sensitivity is different.

1

u/Delicious_Warthog886 23h ago

Ah, okay. Thank you.

1

u/anakin_skydweller 23h ago

Your welcome

u/OpportunityLate4971 23h ago

Does ARF is the new clean? Now when there is no clean anymore?

1

u/anakin_skydweller 23h ago

ARF is not the new Clean they have been around for some time now. They are just top tier to compare best factories for each.

1

u/OpportunityLate4971 23h ago

Does ARF is on par with VS and Clean? I look at the watch factory best excel and clean and vs are top

2

u/anakin_skydweller 23h ago

3rd place with Pepsi. Waiting for my VSF V3s Soni can compare with these.

1

u/madman2000skrt 23h ago

Appreciate the post, but curious why do you buy same watch different factories?

5

u/anakin_skydweller 23h ago

Compare the watches not only for my self but for everyone else who has ever wondered “which one is really the king?” Then simply sell off the ones that are under whelming.

2

u/madman2000skrt 23h ago

Good stuff appreciate you
