For your consideration today is a C&R VSF hulk. This was acquired via a trade...I followed the hype and thought it might blow me away compared to the the zzf I tried. Unfortunately, didn't generate any more emotion in me then prior attempts. The movement feels beautiful, winds as smooth as my genuine ones, keeps good time and shows a good power reserve in my limited ownership. I have worn it out a couple of times, although it is still partially stickered on the clasp and caseback. There is a mark on the clasp (see pictures). Asking $450 plus $8.45 shipping in CONUS via flat rate USPS with tracking unless agreed otherwise, deposited in a local postal box to maintain contactless shipping. PP friends and family no notes or zelle. No implied or expressed warranty. Any questions please ask before sending payment. Please note it might take me a day or two to get it in route. I will keep the buyer posted and ship as fast as I can under the circumstances. On to the pictures

Sir. Would you say that the ZZF is the best out of box Hulk then?

Having had noob, ZZF and VSF in hand, I think VSF wins for movement and bracelet. Both are really good overall, but the finish felt slightly better of the VSF. Both had a beautiful black hole effect on the cyclops, They both use a clean insert so no comparison differences there. Both would easily pass for the genuine and truthfully I did not feel as though any modifications would be required on either one even the date wheel looked good. You would need a genuine sitting next to it and a very keen eye to be able to spot the towels and know for sure what's going on. Even this can be problematic because there are some variations amongst the different years that the hulk has been made by Rolex The only real way to tell for sure would be to crack open the back and look at the movement and see the lack of free sprung balance

Thanks @Rx4Time !!
I appreciate and truly respect your opinion here!
I'm kind of getting back into the hobby, as I stepped out of it last year for other reasons.
I recently purchased a nice VRF from RWI, but I'm still asking the experts on what they consider the best out of box Hulk. Do you also like VRF's version of the Hulk?

I have not had a VRF hulk in hand so I can't offer a direct opinion only that which I've read. Prior to the release of the ZZF and VSF, that was the best one out. Since clean released their hulk bezel insert that is really been a game changer.
