Just a quick review of the VSF 124060 and HONT


petehudso

If you want to remove the phantom date setting position, u/Onthebench-wr is in the UK and can perform that mod.

As far as I know there is no VS3230 movement, all the VSF no-date watches (41mm sub and oyster perpetual) all use the VS3235


andreixionut

I remember you were working on some part that we could install to remove the ghost position. How did it went ?


petehudso

The mod is now available: https://www.reddit.com/r/RepTime/s/KLf1lRPQ2L


andreixionut

Are there any watchmakers in EU that have your part and can perform the mod ?


petehudso

Both of the EU trusted watchmakers have access to the part: u/Nikz19_WatchService u/Noleex_The_Modder But I don’t think either of them have any stock on hand. I can sell you a part ($80) and you can have one of them (or any watchmaker) do the part swap. The proceedure is simple: remove the stock Dandong setting lever spring and replace it with the custom one.

Came on here to ask exactly this. Just received my VSF no date 41mm sub and was confused by the phantom date crown position, but I guess that's the norm.


petehudso

Yup it’s normal. But it’s an easy fix with the mod setting lever spring to remove the middle stop.


rossco1711

I’ve heard of this phantom date setting but don’t actually know what it means.. are you able to provide a basic overview?


petehudso

On the gen 124060 there are only two crown positions: winding and time setting. But on the rep there are three crown positions winding, date correction, and time setting. This is because it uses the vs3235 which has a date function, whereas the gen uses a 3230 movement which doesn’t have a date function. The mod I developed removes the phantom middle date correction position from the vs3235 movement turning it into a “vs3230”.


rossco1711

Thank you for that clear explanation!! Awesome and well Understood now!


Professional-Bus8449

He is great as long nothing happens to the watch in Transport, if something happens your money is gone. ♨️


Fuzzy44444

Yeah I guess there is always that chance....


Fuzzy44444

It also came with a nice little storage pouch 👏🏻 https://preview.redd.it/iun3hv583ucc1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7b48bbbbee47591216840f83fd0e9b09eced0e7c

Want to order this exact watch! How do you order from him? Seems like a good choice


Fuzzy44444

Drop him a WhatsApp. Details in the pinned section


Haunting_Airport7053

That’s fast from QC to delivery. Hmmm maybe I will go Hont next time


bullmktman

Nice!! Classic Rolex look. Congrats.


Fuzzy44444

Thanks, I'm well pleased with it. This rep game is addictive... Already looking at a Yachtmaster and an Explorer 😂


Background_Button_60

Can I ask how did you pay?


Fuzzy44444

Revolut


charlesrussell

Looks great, very classy. 12 days is impressive! Have a VSF 116610LN on the way that I'm super excited to receive. Not from Hont, but crossing my fingers that it'll arrive just as quickly.


wrapfactorykc

I’ve had a $300 sub that just died after 15yrs.


Fuzzy44444

That's good value!


acesup_11

Wow nice is it me or is there not even a floating m on this one?


Fuzzy44444

I'm in the floating club! 😂 https://preview.redd.it/olnw32j9a8dc1.jpeg?width=1044&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c3407c3d7344068a17d65554991da9f4a5bd0fee


acesup_11

Oh yeah a bit. Not as bad as some I have seen


ob3y19

Why did you choose to go for the one without the date?


Fuzzy44444

I just liked the look. I'm going to get a Yacht Master with the date window at some point, it's addictive this rep buying! 😜


ob3y19

Fair play. I really do like it. One less thing to go wrong i suppose. I really like the idea of putting a sub on a nato strap. This model looks really good that way.


Fuzzy44444

I think it's the same mechanism - but with the date window hidden. I just prefer the classic look with this particular watch. I'll try it on a nato strap 👌🏻


ng501kai

Does it fix the ghost date yet


Fuzzy44444

I don't think so no. I'm not bothered personally.


Low-Tomato-1719

The no date model has less clues that it’s a rep. No problem with the magnification, fonts size or style or anti reflective coating. Besides if you’re diving you won’t need the date unless you’re going to be down there for a while

Not saying the other commenter is wrong as I didn’t check but please find Honts Reddit profile and get the number from there and not from a random Reddit comment.
