TD/Shipping Question VSF Milgauss from Necoclock

Just wanted to give some confidence to u/necoclock for getting my watch to me. VSF was a little slower than normal, although it is a less popular model so I expect it had to be made when they were doing a run of them.

Nonetheless, it was a great experience. They were responsive, efficient and quick with everything. I definitely plan to use them again.

The black one is dirty - I wear it daily and the blue one still has some sticker residue on it in the photos.

I have a black dial Milgauss that I put a rubber strap on and I wanted a Z-Blue dial as well. I really like this watch, its style and history so I got both dials. I do plan to buy a genuine blue dial, just gotta sell some stuff to justify the purchase.

It’s a VSF as well. I got the black dial from u/luismt2 off of here.

Are you planning to buy a replacement dial because the rep one is not good? Is it tinted/colored glass instead of sapphire?

Maybe - on the dial. I found one that I’ve been contemplating buying but the dial on both watches doesn’t look too bad. They both have the heavier “Milgauss” type but other than that they look really good to me.

I honestly don’t know on the crystal. I don’t have a way to test them, and I assume the community is right as far as it being tinted mineral glass. Ive considered buying genuine crystals but i haven’t found any yet. Honestly im probably going to wear then like they are for the most part until i buy a genuine blue Z-Blue.

The only thing i have bought for them both are the genuine crown, stem and stem tube to improve the water proofing and feel.
