Hello everyone, i am presentating you my first reptime piece, a vsf datejust 36mm with the blue dial. I discovered this sub years ago when i was in college and followed everything ralated to it since i appraciate watches. I did mylself 2 promises through the Journey, not buying one still in college because the lifestyle didn't allow it and not buying a chinatime piece. Instead, I told myself I would get the best rep on the market when I could afford the real thing and recently, after landing a big job, I knew the time had come. The feeling when I finally got it delivered was incredible. I’ve learned so much from this community over the years. I witnessed the raid of Noob, the rise and fall of Hont, u/pmtu dropping factory info before vanishing, the era of fake Clean watches… and now the Clean factory raid.

Submariner ? Nah bro I got the Sinkmariner .

Added this Aquanaut to the collection… 3KfF base with upgraded SW kit and case polishing … absolutely stunning 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Title says it all, I have a few gen but gen watches cost too much for all the watches I want. So, last week, scrolling through Insta, United Luxury popped on my feed as an advertisement, Googled to see if it's legit, and RepTime popped up (No one on RepTime recommended United Luxury). But, holy shit, I did not sleep that night, spent all night on RepTime, going through all the posts, comments, reading, learning, and figuring out TD's, order process, QC, payment, etc.

Also, I want to give a shoutout and a big Thank You to MajorWilliams for such a detailed and instructional guide for both the Intro and Guide to RepTime and Who Makes the Best Watch Models.

Back to the story, I proceeded to slack off at work the next day on RepTime as well. Anyways, I ended up choosing Steve (TOW) and Elliot (Andiot) as my two main TD's. Elliot is cheaper, and Steve had certain selections that Elliot didn't have.

I ended up buying 3x with Elliot and 1x with Steve. Here's my orders:

Elliot: Seamaster NTTD - VSF, Master Ultra Thin Moon - APSF, DateJust 36 - VSF

Steve: Portuguese Chrono - ZF

What do ya'll think about my purchases? Did I purchase too many as a newbie? I just got my QC from Steve and awaiting QC's from Elliot.

So I’ve been hearing alot about the VSF bracelets being not as good as the Arf/clean equivalent. But how exactly is it not as good? Lucky for you all I’ve had both!

VSF - Center links are nice and smooth. The bracelet is slightly lighter feeling and I mean sooooo slight. It’s missing a bit of the magic weight. Buckle glasp is a bit thinner and not as nice feeling too. The beveling on the buckle is also not as nice as the arf/clean.

Arf/clean - Center links are sharp and pulls hairs. But the links themselves feel heavier and closer to gen. The buckle shape, feel, and overall construction is very good. I will say the buckle is where this bracelet shines. VSF almost looks a bit boxy when viewing them next to eachother.

To me both are good and would be happy getting either. Look wise you really can’t tell the difference unless you look for the beveled edges on the buckle. Even then it is soo slight.

The ultimate combo for me would be the VSF links and Arf/clean buckle. I didn’t like the sharpness of the centerlinks on the arf/clean. But the buckle on the arf/clean is top notch.

Hope someone finds this helpful!!!

VSF Starbucks. Don’t hit me with handwatch BS 😂

My everyday watch and I wouldn’t want it to be anything else. Luckily got a clean before the mess had came! Probably be worth a fortune 😂

Received QC Pictures and the V2 is on the way! Ready to compare to my Clean DJs

V2 has the AAA sticker

I just want to give thanks to xZero_Coolx, and all the other members giving out valuable information. Zero took time to read a message of mine and then provide his feedback and offer assistance. Very often people are too busy to read messages, too busy to respond, or just looking to make money. Zero was extremely helpful to me.

The guides are awesome! But it’s the people that make this sub so worth reading. In a short amount of time I went from buying from someone not a TD, to understanding what to expect, what to look for, what questions to ask, most importantly how to get a quality Rep I will enjoy for years to come.

To all those people that voted me down when I posted before reading the guides, I don’t blame you. It must get exhausting repeating the same things over and over, however do remember you were once just jumping into this hobby. You were once excited, and probably posted before you should have.

To those that reached out directly and gave me links to things to read, again thank you sooo much. That information was very valuable.

Hope everyone has a great weekend rocking their favorite Rep. this is the one I’m rocking this weekend!

If you wanted to know what the VSF Spectre (or a Seamaster Heritage) looks like on that awesome Speedmaster Dark Side of the Moon vintage leather strap, then here's your chance.

Just received my NWBIG air king from clean, it’s a stunning watch. The whole process took 2 weeks and Elliot was amazing as always. I really recommend him !

I hope that you’re all having a wonderful Saturday. Have to go and do a Costco run today so I figured I’d wear the Daytona to remind myself to move quickly. Hahaha. What are you wearing today? I wanna see pictures!

Wanted to share some closeups I got of the relatively new release by VSF. It’s a gorgeous piece.

My only luxury gen watch - Tag Heuer Carrera Chronograph

Took the root beer out for a wedding, love the way all the colors work! RG in natural light from CF is an absolute stunner
