CLEAN Daytona DD4130 vs SA4130 same mechanism??

[Chuck911]

Hello Everyone, I am a newbie trying to buy a Daytona 116506 with the luminescent dial. After researching it thoroughly, I found out that CLEAN with DD4130 mechanism is the way to go.

CLEAN seems to come with both DD4130 vs SA4130 mechanisms for this model. I started reaching out to TDs to check availability and one of the reputable TD claims that DD4130 vs SA4130 are the same mechanisms while another one says they are different and SA is lower quality.

I am confused and I would appreciate your input on this. TIA

Best,
Chuck

Naming conventions of movements is inconsistent, unfortunately.

Welcome Chuck to RWI Community

Do have a good read. Sometimes, some dealers have lesser understanding on the movements because of the fact they do not even have direct access to the watches.

With the sharing of information and resources, you can be sure that you get familiarised with the terms given and look out for the updated versions sold.

Have fun.
