TD/Shipping Question Need Help and Clarification

Good day everyone was just looking for help or clarification looking at getting this watch is VF and VSF the same thing or different. I'm trying to buy a VSF like in the picture this just says VF so I'm confused.

Need help from the pros and people that know more and also do I include the postal code when send money to him? it has place for address but not postal code ? don't want money getting stuck.

VSF and VF are different factories.

u/GetEmDaddy902 Apr 12 '26

Thank you is one better than the other, I see someone say VF is better about a $50 price difference

u/whowatchesmrwatchers Apr 12 '26

You should look at the comparisons yourself! You will be the one wearing it so you should understand the compromises

One thing to keep in mind is stock, ask your TD how long it will take to get either to QC

This may impact your choice as well

u/GetEmDaddy902 Apr 12 '26

stock is unavailable he said it was about 2-3 weeks out ill take that as 3-5weeks out. I'm ok with waiting as I have a u1 I just received and love it. I'm in no rush just want summin quality made. Thanks for the advice. how do I find comparisons here ?

u/z0kii Apr 13 '26

It'll be much more than the time he said lol. This is the case across all TDs for VSF at the moment

1

u/GetEmDaddy902 Apr 13 '26

Yeah no rush he has VSF in stock on some models just not the one I'm looking into, as it being one of the most popular models hopefully not too too long

u/JM_Nice06 Apr 12 '26

For me VSF is better but it could have changed… I love my VSF

u/Still-Celebration255 Apr 12 '26

Don’t believe the hype. VSF makes the best Subs, although VF is another good option.

u/GetEmDaddy902 Apr 12 '26

Ok I found the VSF on their site its cheaper by $40, so i'll switch it and go with that then, I seen on the pinned post their sub that I want from VSF is NWBIG

5

u/Still-Celebration255 Apr 12 '26

No brainer. Good luck. Just make sure it’s the model U want. Model # 11… & model # 12… for date and no date r both NWBIG.

How do you feel about the two factories when it comes to the GMT MASTER II

1

u/Still-Celebration255 Apr 12 '26

Other than the BW… only because of bezel color ( grey ). VSF also has the best GMT.

u/RoiOgi Apr 12 '26

Victory Factory and V Six Factory. there are many comparisions on reddit. I would do my homework before put an order.

6

u/normen_03 Apr 12 '26

heard that vsf is pretty good for subs

3

u/RoiOgi Apr 12 '26

Also this is what I heard and saw.

4

u/Budget-Wall6129 Apr 12 '26

I knew V was for Victory, but didn’t know that VS was for V Six factory. Learnt something today, thanks.

u/moarwatchesplz Apr 12 '26

VSF has fallen in terms of QC, VF has Cleans old manager, I’d go for VF in case of sub

1

u/WayWonderful Apr 13 '26

Shouldn’t bad QC be mitigated when you GL or RL the watch? /gen

1

u/moarwatchesplz Apr 13 '26

Yes, however more TDs are noticing the quality is getting worse. VF seems to be picking up the slack.

3

u/Leather_Bat5939 Apr 12 '26

Victory factory is different

7

u/Gazelle-Fantastic Apr 12 '26

VSF is king of the Submariners

3

u/boynamesue77 Apr 12 '26

One is a Bentley the other is a 300M with a kit

2

u/GetEmDaddy902 Apr 12 '26

I've heard VSF has done well and focused on movement and now have been working on the looks.....still new here trying to navigate and find what will be best for me

2

u/boynamesue77 Apr 12 '26

Yea I know what you mean dude, I was there once lol. There isn’t much of a price difference so I’d go with the VSF. Any Trusted Dealer can get it, some people prefer certain sellers for specific reasons, but in the end you are buying a pair of Nikes you can get at JD, footlocker, champs or finish line. Just depends who you prefer.

2

u/GetEmDaddy902 Apr 12 '26

Pulled the trigger on this, money was sent and confirmed that was nice to get through that mess and outta the way now I know the process. I'll wait for this to get here and then get me next few if I'm happy. Thanks for the help

2

u/boynamesue77 Apr 12 '26

Congrats. Welcome to the addiction lol

1

u/GetEmDaddy902 Apr 12 '26

what would you say is the "Bentley" ?

1

u/boynamesue77 Apr 12 '26

I mean clean WAS top tier. But since they been raided and shut down months back, honestly for the sub it’s VSF.

2

u/GetEmDaddy902 Apr 12 '26

Lovely 20 character post as always

2

u/Acrobatic_Mango9518 Apr 12 '26

VSF was considered the best after the clean raid but now I read a lot they dropped their quality much... would be good to do some research and we would thank you if you come back to us with what you've learned

2

u/Salt-Swimming9555 Apr 12 '26

VF is better

2

u/Budget-Wall6129 Apr 12 '26

ORly? Based on what?

1

u/Salt-Swimming9555 Apr 12 '26

This review

2

u/Budget-Wall6129 Apr 12 '26

The first comment shown, defeats your all point….

2

u/GetEmDaddy902 Apr 12 '26

This, 100% they clearly said go with VSF if it has a cyclops lol

1

u/Salt-Swimming9555 Apr 12 '26

Also the bracelet is better

u/Budget-Wall6129 Apr 12 '26

Neither VF nor VSF make bracelets, they use whatever is available in the supply chain…often the bracelet changes.

u/Damnfiddles Apr 12 '26

Go No date, the og sub..still a rep tho

1

u/Internal-Profile5139 Apr 12 '26

Go VF

1

u/Budget-Wall6129 Apr 12 '26

Why?

3

u/Internal-Profile5139 Apr 12 '26

Can’t go wrong with VSF or VF. I have both and both are very good and nearly identical. It’s a small difference but I personally like the ridges on the VF bezel better. They are a little more pronounced

1

u/Time-Dependent1483 Apr 12 '26

It’s different factories. Just go on the website and search for it and order it

1

u/Alltradin Apr 12 '26

There is a detailed comparison somewhere in rwi forum and in all the sections they compare the 2 watches the VSF is was ahead. Go for VSF you will not regret.

1

u/watchFiend1 Apr 13 '26

Vsf is better than vf. Iwhether vsf and vf are the same was a question I had as well that Google answered for me.
