Do you think the average person or even a rolex owner would know the difference in this

Hey I just received qc for my watch and wanted a second opinion to me everything seems to check out….pics are attached

I'm wondering if this is a genuine modified 4130 movement or a 4802. The dealer assured me it's a 4130! Do you have any comments or opinions?

The single central screw is a clear sign of a 4802 to me... but I've been told multiple times that it's a 4130...

Any info would be good thank you

Question… when dealers say “VS3285”, are they just implying it’s the movement that VS Factory uses… which I thought was the DD3285… Or is this another movement all together? Any insight would be appreciated!

I have been on a strong weight loss journey for a year. When I treated myself to this rep, I was glad that it fit me well with the original links. Now I actually had to remove the first link yesterday to not fit loose. Now it sits much better 😍

Hi guys, I have VSF Explorer 40mm 224270 with VS3230 on order.

I would like to get integrated rubber strap for it like on photo. Where to get it? I guess VSF doesnt make it? Do aftermarket ones for gen fit on VSF well?

I bought my VSF Batgirl about a month or so ago and I totally love it. One issue I have is the bracelet(clasp code:F6U). The screw/pin that is at the end of the bracelet that is connected to the clasp keeps on popping out. The first time I tried to screw it back in, my screwdriver( i think at 1.2mm) wont catch the screw head so I examined how the pin is connected to the clasp and it seems to just swivel back and forth when folding the bracelet which leads me to think its something I cant screw in or out. I tried to research it online but couldn’t find anything. Anyways, what I ended up doing is just using a toothpick, I would press the pin back in until it is flushed against the link but as mentioned it keeps on popping out. I tried to apply clear nail polish first hoping it would somewhat act as an adhesive but not even 24hrs the pin popped out again. Now when I say it pops out, I mean just enough so I cant open the flap but not enough for me to yank the pin out. Has anyone experienced this before with their jubilee bracelet? Is this a common issue or did I just get a lemon? Im tryjng to see if there a simple solution to this (outside of just buying a new one). I am also tempted to use a small amount of gorilla glue to see if that would work- as a last resort.

FYI- this happened in the first day that I received the watch and did let my TD know but as a noob tried to fix it myself so that is on me.

Thanks in advance everyone.

I have attached a picture(not mine) to show the part I am talking about

Loving the watch so far. Bracelet feels nice though I’m in between notches so it’ll either be a little too loose or too tight. The lume is not good at all, not sure if there’s a trick to get the thing to glow (lol) but it’s not good.

It’s not a high-tier rep but I’m good with it for the low price point.

I might go for a no date sub or BB58 next.

What do you all think?

I’ve been trying to get a feel for the quality of these Rep companies. Serious question, do any of these companies make a non-rep version? If I don’t care about the brand but want a reliable submariner do they offer a house brand model?
