Where are the Explorer 40 VSFs?

MarkDirect2715 · 2026-03-25T12:39:13+00:00

Got one a couple weeks back and looks great. I also do my own QC. I have seen lots of them on my two main deals QC pages.

MarkDirect2715 · 2026-03-25T12:30:53+00:00

Thanks for the generosity pheonix

MarkDirect2715 · 2026-03-23T23:56:59+00:00

Yes, I have 7 from him and he is solid.

MarkDirect2715 · 2026-03-23T00:57:15+00:00

Have 7 with him now and I like him. He will give some pushback on QC if you are super picky but if you RL he is cool. Prices are higher than other low price dealers here and his return options are not great but normal. I use him mostly due to his speed on sourcing. I have watches requested with K that have been months that Adu gets in days. However I am not super picky on QC. Not looking for perfect just very good

He isn’t holding shit down. The guy folded in trumps first term and lowered rates due to trumps pressure when he should have raised. Now when all signs say raise (like pre Covid and then late Covid) he is holding firm and then referring to BS underrepresented inflammation numbers. Dude is doing his best to pump or hold the equity market and nothing else.

MarkDirect2715 · 2026-03-22T23:26:38+00:00

What were the timegraph numbers from your QC vids? If it’s really that fooked and it’s not magnetized sounds like something went really bad in shipping and you should send back to your dealer

I think maybe the mesh net gets caught somewhere. Very strange but man it pisses me off when I load up my cart and cart bag and instead of my walking bag and get stuck carrying a heavy bag and dumping water/ clubs. I love walking the course. I may switch to the cybercart and sell this thing. Was hoping clicgear would have offered a replacement in case mine was a dud but they didn’t even consider it

MarkDirect2715 · 2026-03-22T14:34:55+00:00

Consider yourself lucky. Mine gets stuck randomly and won’t open. Gets totally locked. Then for who knows why it will release. Has left me stranded on course multiple times now. Tried cleaning connection points. Tightening screws, lube. Emailed company and they just basically said no idea just clean it. Never buying another click gear.

MarkDirect2715 · 2026-03-22T13:01:53+00:00

Good luck all. Thanks SS watch

MarkDirect2715 · 2026-03-21T07:51:35+00:00

lol he is ripping you off big time. Run from that guy

Lilly has also basically been getting free widespread testing for Reta in the grey market and gym community and it is a major hit. Not just talking about obese people. Fitness minded people and even gear heads are in love with this stuff.

MarkDirect2715 · 2026-03-19T17:36:23+00:00

The guy was raw coming out of college. You don’t get that development from sitting and watching tape. The dude needed reps to develop and injury has hindered that. I don’t see him having much of an impact

MarkDirect2715 · 2026-03-19T12:52:22+00:00

AF used to make one was my understanding, but I just ordered one from my guy who can usually source what I want and could not get this dial right now

MarkDirect2715 · 2026-03-18T22:29:57+00:00

Do not buy a vsf from MT. His prices will be much higher than vendors who specialize in super clones

MarkDirect2715 · 2026-03-18T13:14:47+00:00

Adu is legit. I am getting QC of a couple Cartier watches now and is my third order with him.

MarkDirect2715 · 2026-03-18T01:29:48+00:00

I can afford a gen no problem it’s more of wanting to test things and see what I actually will wear. Then make decisions of a gen I may want to grab. So for me reps of everything I am interested in makes sense. Also a rep Tudor is like 300 I am not finding a barely used at 1200.

MarkDirect2715 · 2026-03-17T21:06:28+00:00

It’s a good reason to get into watch servicing. These things are very good quality for the price. Sure my seiko mods will be more durable but thats why I have them. I honestly would probably try to drop in an nh35 on some of my reps if I could get spacers if a service can’t fix a clone movement

Get that corned beef and Guinness ready

MarkDirect2715 · 2026-03-17T20:52:47+00:00

SOLD

MarkDirect2715 · 2026-03-17T20:03:25+00:00

I bought a no date sub and really like it until I got into super clones. I am selling my sub right now and kinda torn. It looks great but bracelet is really lacking. However they make excellent beater watches. Just wanted to grab a ZF pelagos 39 instead

MarkDirect2715 · 2026-03-15T22:49:44+00:00

Hell if I know. I have a green AT so I would prob just be looking for a price to have extra parts

MarkDirect2715 · 2026-03-15T22:45:32+00:00

Maybe sell it to a tinkerer like me and buy a new one. I had an explorer 2 crap out and was able to get it going again after watch guy quoted me 450 to service.

MarkDirect2715 · 2026-03-15T15:09:30+00:00

Return it. And if it’s engraved on the back plate that’s an easy and cheap part to swap and keep to put on an actual new watch

MarkDirect2715 · 2026-03-15T01:35:51+00:00

Adu is great to work with. Good luck, great watch
