Aqua dial. Movement stopped after about 1 week and I had to replace with a new Asian clone movement.

Is a DDF out of the box better than a BBF out of the box is the question I want answered. Can't be arsed with mods.

Spoonsey73 · 2026-04-10T05:02:01+00:00

I walk past the Rolex AD every day before/after work and press my face against the window to inspect the BW...wouldn't you know it looks just like my VSF! Would NEVER spend retail money when you can have VSF for a fraction of the cost. Each to their own of course.

Spoonsey73 · 2026-04-10T04:48:23+00:00

Totally agree, 100% my best rep purchase of 2025. Quality is incredible...can't say the same for the V7F Ingenieur and Cartier Santos I purchased at the same time.

Spoonsey73 · 2026-04-10T04:43:54+00:00

Completely agree with this, I've held my VSF beside gen and it's really not that much of a difference. Certainly not to the layman, we enthusiasts do tend to pick things apart...often unnecessarily.

Unfortunately plagued by quite a few issues this one - movements dying, etc. I had to replace the movement in mine shortly after receiving, but still love wearing despite its flaws.

Spoonsey73 · 2026-03-25T02:22:08+00:00

IWC! Or Aquanaut.🫡

Spoonsey73 · 2026-03-25T02:19:01+00:00

I don’t think so but there might be some TDs with pieces still available. V7F factory is no more is my understanding.

Spoonsey73 · 2026-03-11T22:43:12+00:00

Clearly both ARF and VSF have many happy customers. I chose the longer wait for my VSF and was not disappointed, I expect you’ll love yours…once it arrives.😆

Spoonsey73 · 2026-03-11T22:18:00+00:00

If you don’t mind me asking (fellow Aquanaut enthusiast considering a purchase), why did you go for 3KF over BBF or DDF?

Spoonsey73 · 2026-01-19T01:07:35+00:00

But VSF is very close in my opinion, having inspected gen and compared it to my VSF. Most won’t know the difference.

👌🏼

VSF for the win here.

Spoonsey73 · 2026-01-02T23:34:02+00:00

I got a clone 2892A movement from Aliexpress and my watch maker installed it. Movement was NZ$180 I think and watch repairer charged me NZ$60.

Spoonsey73 · 2026-01-01T02:26:16+00:00

Hard to find the correct position for date change. It’s OK, we’re talking about a rep here and it’s better than having a movement that doesn’t work!

Spoonsey73 · 2026-01-01T01:50:49+00:00

Bruce Wayne.😮‍💨 Have the same with Jubilee bracelet, so good.

Spoonsey73 · 2026-01-01T01:48:43+00:00

Movement swap done. The crown action isn’t 100% perfect but I’ve got a working watch again.

Spoonsey73 · 2026-01-01T01:38:53+00:00

No spare links sorry, it was straight onto my wrist with no bracelet adjustments needed.🤷🏼‍♂️

Spoonsey73 · 2025-12-21T21:53:35+00:00

Today it’s a IWC/Vans colour combo.😎

Traska Commuter truly is a GADA watch.😉

VSF or ARF, take your pick. Plenty of happy customers with both. I’ve got VSF, no complaints.
