Surface Transitions
The most informative starting point is transitions between surface treatments instead of overall brightness. Document where brushing stops, polishing begins and edges change direction around lugs, bezel and bracelet. Normal wear must be separated from manufacturing traits before finish quality is used diagnostically. The source names Clean Factory / VSF(VS Factory) as factory attribution; keep that as classification metadata only.
Calendar Geometry
The first evidence set worth building concerns the date system rather than the dial in general. Study numeral centering, vertical position, aperture geometry and the date window’s relationship to adjacent markers. Judge magnification or offset only from a straight-on dial image, since viewing angle can distort both. The source names Clean Factory / VSF(VS Factory) as factory attribution; keep that as classification metadata only.
Bracelet Integration
The most discriminating opening check is how the 18kt Yellow Gold meets the head of the watch. Benchmark end-link seating, first-link articulation, gap consistency and the transition from lug to bracelet. These interfaces are often more diagnostic than center-link shine in seller photography. Clean Factory / VSF(VS Factory) is useful for version tracking, not for proving authenticity.
Next Verification Step
The final note should distinguish listed specifications from features that were actually observed or mechanically confirmed. Any final comparison should return to a verified example of 116238, not merely the wider model family.


















William Thomas –
I kept coming back to this one after looking at several options. The overall finish is clean, and blue dial and 36mm case adds just enough visual interest. I like that it can work with everyday clothes without looking out of place. It ended up being a better fit for my needs than I expected.
