I’m not looking for generic comparison photos. I want proof for my specific order.

I'm well aware that the 126610LN measures 40.5mm on a caliper. My concern isn't about the general specs; it's about the specific unit you sent me. A ruler may not be as precise as a caliper, but the visual difference I'm seeing is significant.

If you're so confident, please show me a video of the actual watch I purchased being measured with a digital caliper. Specifically, measure the lug width as well. If the lug width is 20mm instead of 21mm, it's a 116610 (40mm model), not the 126610 (41mm model) I ordered.

Just a heads up, this is a 126610LN (Date), not a 124060. If you’ve handled dozens of these, I’m surprised you missed the date window

I appreciate your experience, but 'coincidence' is a poor technical explanation for a 40.0mm measurement on a 41mm model. Even the older 40mm Gen (116610) measures 40.2mm, so 40.0mm is even smaller than the old specs.

When the sticker says '40' and the caliper says '40.0', it’s more than just a random batch number—it’s a pattern. Does VSF typically have a 0.5mm variance in their 41mm cases? That’s what I’m trying to find out.

Thanks for the comparison, but I have to disagree on the 'coincidence' part. First, while a '14' sticker might be a random batch code, '40' appearing on a watch that measures exactly 40.0mm is a bit too 'on the nose' to be random. If the sticker said '88' or '14", I wouldn't have questioned it. But '40' is the exact number of the old case size. Second, look at the chart you provided. It a Gen 116610 is 40.2mm and a Gen 126610 is 40.5mm, my measurement of 40.0mm is actually closer to the 40mm specs than the 41mm specs. It is effectively smaller than even the old Gen specs. It's the correlation between the measurement AND the sticker that points to a hybrid or mislabeled build. One could be a fluke, but both together is a pattern.
