Apparently from what my translate says there is going to be a new improved SA3135? Can someone perhaps translate it?

The embedded pictures don‘t work for me, but thanks for sharing the link.
Now I know what people mean, when they state „dirt in the movement“ - holy moly, my nails are cleaner after working a day in the garden :D

Stuvetjee , thanks for the heads-up! It will be interesting to find out in what watches/factories these will be used in and if this is better than the SH3135. Thanks, mate!

No probs mate, according to Mrlin this will be a very clean new improved movement. If they are treated the same as the SA4130 clone it will be better than the SH i know for sure!

This might be a reaction to the new generation of clone movements coming on the market with better QC and raising the bar overall (case in point the new VSF Omega Superclone), not to mention Noob's reaction to ARF superior QC

Till now I was very upset that there will be no more ETA-Clones in the future ... but I think this is a big step in the right direction for 3135 clones.

Looking forward to see the experts here inspect the new movement.

wow.

I mean, that looks remarkable. Other than some differences in the direction of the machining and some near microscopic geometry differences, (and of course missing engraving and gold fill) this looks like a gen shot.

I hope this works as good as it looks, because it looks fantastic.

i think it's still in sample/testing phase, thats why it is not yet filled. According to the article. The production of the current SA3135 has been stopped and only stock is now sold to repfacs. So we should see this new updated movement soon.

OP, would you know who is making this? I hope there won’t be another Noob lock-out like what happened to the SA4130

Well there is still the SH 3135 so why should there be a lock-out?

It's not from a repfactory, Just a movement factory who will eventually supply to Noob, BP and perhaps JF/ARF me thinks.

Why can't they make the correct lever on the balance bridge of these clones?

Yeah, I figure it's just like ARF using the 3135 from a movement maker in Shanghai, thus the SH-3135 as opposed to SA-3135. If ARF uses this new movement instead of 2824-2 or the touted SH-3135 "Smoke" version that never saw light, then that will be awesome!

They should be making a clone 3235 not an upgraded 3135 haha

Ugh... I missed the 'no more eta clone movements' train. Can someone elaborate as to what is happening to the ETA clones and why they are going extinct?

One thing is pictures promoting the new movement, another thing is how the movement will actually be rolled out in mass production
