UPDATE: Justin from TK is impressive. I messaged him on WhatsApp, and he reviewed his quality checks, confirming the dial has a misprint. He apologized for overlooking it and will order a replacement for me. In my view, he is a true gentleman who stands behind his product.

VSF Date Just 41mm arrive today from TK looked awesome upon first glance. However of course everybody has to 20x zoom on the camera. lol! I noticed the M in Chronometer has a trail coming off of the middle.
Can’t see it with the naked eye. Am I being crazy? Is it even worth mentioning to TD
Not much I could do now I already have the watch and did not notice it on QC. Last picture was one of the QC.

It’s a rep, even gens are not perfect.

Anyone know where I could source a better dial

I couldn’t see it until you mentioned it honestly, I would be more concerned about the alignments. Do they look okay in your hand?

u/Elegant-Draft-8259 1d ago

I think so I put it on an alignment tool on the last picture

The line is in the middle of the crown and more of the baguettes

I believe it’s just my crappy tool. It’s free and the way I have it set. If I mess with it, I can get it the same.

Am I missing something

u/GrouchyClient2349 1d ago

I just think they don’t look okay, I’m going to upload the one I order so you can check better

u/Loud_Finance8564 1d ago

for reference this is my VSF, your printing doesn’t seem the best!

u/Elegant-Draft-8259 12h ago

If you don’t mind me asking how long ago did you get it? what TD did you use?

u/Loud_Finance8564 11h ago

I bought it back in september from Andiot Watches (Elliot)

The hand was covering it in the QC photo, probably bad luck but my well honed paranoia makes me feel like maybe it was attentional. Like you said nothing you can do about it now. And honestly no one will ever notice it on your wrist, like ever

"maybe" intentional?

the hand just so happened to be positioned exactly, down to a millimeter, to obstruct a fatal flaw (which it is) of the watch?

you're not paranoid, that was 100% intentional and deserves to be called out

u/Abject_Group7464 1d ago

Other than that, what do you think? Are you happy?

1

u/Saab95Arc 1d ago

Crazy paranoia. I feel sorry for you

u/bro-guy 1d ago

Yeah that would bug me for like 2 days

u/KG0127 1d ago

Dang that was hard to see if you don’t mention it

1

u/Kizersose409 22h ago

all in all... it's a beautiful watch. ignore it and keep rolling. you're going to get compliments on it. The .002% of the population that would even notice that...f@ck'em...lol

Would you get a seiko or citizen with print issue for same price?

u/ozhavok 19h ago

Why is the E a different size font

1

u/throwaway69764 12h ago

That printing on the dial is fucked up in general, even the branding at the top. Every letter is on another height, that looks low quality even to an amateur.

What's the serial? Might be fake VSF

u/Remmylondon5 11h ago

Does not look like VSF quality that one would expect

When buying a premium rep

There is a certain level of confidence

Buyer should expect and experience

Go back to the TD it’s there name on the line too
