In all honesty, I need some karma, had to make a new account and have only been lurking for a long time until now. 

So iv decided to make this little review of my time with my watches and yes I know about the giant gaps in the SEL in the picture.

These are my own opinions, and may not reflect your experience.

So right about 48 months ago I decided to buy the VSF S19 and the S29 116610LN after reading a lot on another forums when they had many of the Gen vs VSF reviews.

Both the watches felt great in the hand and winding them was smooth with no issues.
But after a few days the seconds / day was a little of, so i decided to get them serviced.

Went with an non approved watchsmith in EU (plz don’t do this) because of their YouTube videos.
Paid about €400/watch for a full teardown , clean , nano treatment, rebuild,regulate and  green result from waterproof tester.
But when I got them back, the winding felt like sand / grinding from the movement.

But they have been holding up great,
Showering , pool use and I have washing them in the sink with toothbrush and soap about 1-2 times/month.
The bezel insert have had no fading unlike my old Noob v7 from many years ago.
They tend to go around -+3 sec/day 

I have done some treatment myself with silicone grease from ProDive for o-rings and gasket a few months back. 
And spa time with babyoil for the bracelets.
(Wash with soap after to rinse of the oils and dry)

Now to the compare between my watches accordingly to me;

S19 (7GJ clasp)
Better Centered Datewheel
Better Screws on the Bracelet 
Feels better when winding watch 
Better Bezel insert placement 
Better Engraving on Rolex Clasp inside 
Not so sharp corners on clasp
Great SEL with no gap

S29 (6SH clasp)
Not so sharp bezel
Not so sharp crown
Better printed Datewheel on some dates 
Better Rehaut Engraving (no RO LEX & Space after crown logo @ 12 o clock)
Better Hands (not so fat Mercedes)
Better Clasp outside details 
Better timekeeping (+Seconds / day)
Better Bezel movement 
Better Silver Rings around Hour Markers 
Gaps in SELs

Despite all the + on the S29, I daily the S19 the most, probably because I prefer the overall feeling of the bracelet and clasp.

My main complaint right now is the winding feels cheap after full service, sadly.
Is there any way to improve on that myself ?

In your own experience, who had the models i have now and made the jump, would it be an upgrade to get any of the newer VSF models with serial starting with Q66, any great improvements from 4 years to now ?

Thanks for all the wisdom from the community
