Clean will be releasing the Yacht Master 40mm in the next few days. It'll be using a VR movement. Not sure if it'll be the 3135 or 3235.

Source? Very much interested in this!

Are we talking about SS or Rose Gold YM40 version?

Multiple TDs have confirmed this. They will release 3 models this week of the 40mm Yacht Master. I could only begin to concur that it'll be the Grey and Blue dial SS and the rose gold version.

You've just made my day! Can't come soon enough... would love to get my hands on a CF 126622 Rhodium - clueless about the specs and accuracy, but coming from CF I expect a decency level that should easily make them competitive with this currently underproduced model.

You’re sure it’s a 2836 and not a 2824-2?
If so the crown turning of the movement with an 2836 movement is same as 3135 right ?

so I finally found my base watch for my build.
it should be an ARF 3135.
it arrived in the ARF coffin and bracelet had the plastic wrap with the ARF hologram.
so far so good.

when I looked at the dial I noticed that the dial have the coronet @ 6 position like om the 12xxx series with the 3235 movement.
This is the firs time I have seen this on ARF with the 3135 movement.
also the DW seems not that bold like we used to see in ARF’s with clone movement.

could anyone help me to identify if this is truly a ARF or something else?

Wow, very curious--if indded ARF they've introduced a new dial126622. I have a recently purchased ARF blue yachty (4-months ago received)...based on prior dial 116622 model (no coronet)...and bezel rotates 120 clicks (24 clicks is not right). From which trusted dealer did you purchase?

I wasn’t be able to source one with 3135 case from a TD only 2824..
A couple TD’s told me they can suplie but after payment they wasn’t be able…
Until now this is my most frustrating build I have ever done. :eek:

So finally a couple weeks ago a reputable seller from a Facebook group inform me that his supplier had some old stock.

Since it’s a base watch I don’t really care about the Dial bezel or anything.
But the most important is if the gen bezel will fit
Movement dial hands xtal I believe it will since it have the clone 3135..

Is ARF still producing watches?
