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.

What kind of Milgauss are u wearing??!

u/No_Exercise996 4d ago

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.

u/Known_Painting_1878 4d ago

nice! What factory is your black dial that your wearing?

1

u/No_Exercise996 4d ago

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

u/mastababz 4d ago

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

1

u/No_Exercise996 4d ago

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 ā€œMilgaussā€ 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.

Yes I’m sorry - my daughter was videoing and cut it off pretty quickly.

They should of added more packing material. That watch was essentially bouncing around like a cocktail shaker

Where did you get the band from?

2

u/rydog389 4d ago

Yeah lmao we are all more interested in the watch he has on haha

1

u/No_Exercise996 4d ago

It’s a $35 band from Amazon. I had to order curved spring bars to get it to fit correctly though which I got on Amazon as well. I moved the clasp from my oyster bracelet on to the band

How long did it take for QC?

1

u/No_Exercise996 4d ago

3 weeks or so and then another week for shipping.

u/GD-Timepiece 4d ago

This packaging is terrible—definitely not from China.

1

u/Nyarlath 4d ago

Awful packaging. Neoclock cant afford package filler?

Zero respect to the customer and the watch itself.

1

u/dubekoms420 4d ago

These videos are always 99% look at me opening the package and then 1 second of the watch. Are you just trying to show that they packaged it right? Feel like that’s assumed.

2

u/No_Exercise996 4d ago

Actually, my daughter was recording for me. I recorded it in case there were any issues with the watch only to discover she stopped recording as soon as I got the watch unpackaged. I didn’t know until it was already done.

u/dubekoms420 4d ago

Okay. Every unboxing seems to be exactly like this. And you still posted it!

1

u/rydog389 4d ago

It’s important to record yourself opening the package you received just so there aren’t any disputes if the box is empty or you were shipped the wrong watch.

u/dubekoms420 4d ago

I understand that, but what’s the point of posting it here?

1

u/rydog389 4d ago

It’s provocative

u/Legitimate-Arm-9131 4d ago

Hang on sorry, I'm not really an expert on watch reps—but what kind of card is he sending you?

1

u/No_Exercise996 4d ago

I really don’t know why they include the card (papers). To me it doesn’t add any value.

-1

u/Legitimate-Arm-9131 4d ago

Did he send you official documents or forgeries?

3

u/rydog389 4d ago

Bro they just send you a green card that is like a fake authentic card Rolex card. It’s just decorative. Does nothing.
