Petition to stop recommending BVF as THEE NWBIG Santos
BVF has too many easy callouts to be everyone's top NWBIG. I almost bought one before I did my own deep-dive research, and I'd be so bummed if I didn't go with a different factory instead (such as V6F, KOR, or GF)
On a BVF:
- Entire case shape around lugs is wrong (see pic 2)
- Most dials are rotated clockwise
- Floating R in Cartier (sometimes)
- Bezel screws are bulbous and round instead of flat like gen.
- Bezel is wavy and screw cutouts are rounded
- Hands are painted blue instead of flame-heated. Obvious up-close because of the bubbles, drips, and dust in the paint.
- Crown shape is very squared off instead of rounded like gen.
- Blue crown gem falls out
How did BVF get its great reputation here?
