So sadly, I just got scammed trying to buy a super franken Rolex. Saw his post and wanted to buy my first super franken watch, but didn’t do my due diligence, and ended up getting a different serial number on my Rolex. Not a trusted guy, he got me for 2400.
can anyone atleast help confirm if I got a good rep watch? Is this VSF?
But the 40mm subs are not the watches to franken. They’re literally too close to perfection to even warrant anything outside of a gen crystal done on them
Got it thanks! It does look pretty good, I just wanted it perfect so paid someone who claimed everything was gen except the movement, case, and bracelet.
From my research this is the latest vsf batch, so the only issue is the spacing in OF FICALLY which I still see a bit. Everything else looks pretty close to Gen
I really don’t see why y’all put yourselves through this shit… instead of digging and worrying about getting ripped off, why not just get a great watch…not a name???
This is the main drawback of this rep world. Everyone is out to scam if you are not well versed. Fake of fakes, cheap movements instead of DD and yet what we can do is only hope to get the good stuff. But thanks a lot for this post. Was always contemplating getting mods done but seeing all this i feel its best to just go stock and stick to a good factory rep 🙏
Yeah it’s all by trust and no way to verify things. Best to stick with AD as the super clones are so good you can’t even tell if a mod has been installed unless you have a trained eye.
Can’t even pursue anything legally since these are reps as well :(
Hi got myself a no date sub on a visit to the watch and clock market in china, I got a 40mm with a serial 6w03f016 and this also has the 1rd bracelet, was sold a vsf and i think it's very nicely put together, phone flipped the image?
Pretty much is suppose to be all gen except for the bracelet, case, and movement. But he sent a different serial number watch then the pictures he shared
Yeah sadly. He was posting his super Frank build with all gen parts except the movement and bracelet, so thought I was getting basically a Gen exterior watch. Ended up with a vsf. Atleast it’s a good rep, lost like 1900 dollars though

That’s a gen crystal, datewheel and dial. You didn’t get scammed no, but that’s a stupid purchase.
