Here we go, several rumours and confirmation from TDs stating that ARF is indeed working on a 116710 with proper 3186 movement.
For me, I'll use this one as a new base for my old franken 116710LN with ICHS. ICHS always bothered me, even if it is just seen very very close. It is still there.

Maybe they'll also manage to nail a proper BLNR bezel, who knows ? Join me in the waiting room :)

If reliable and truly 1:1 to the gen, the movement alone would be worth all the cost of the rep (like the SA4130 from Noob).

CNY is over, I'm hoping for at least a sneak peak from Angus/PT :D

I have source most of the gen 116710ln parts now, so I'm waiting for ARF to drop a good rep, (I hope it comes with a good sell as well) :D

Eagerly holding out for this one too. I believe the LN will be first followed by other variants (BLNR, BLRO, etc). If they can nail a reliable movement and a good bezel, I’m in for 2/3 to franken...

My bezel, crystal and dial is ready to get transferred. If they nail the BLNR bezel, I'd be a tough choice then. Not getting my hopes up tho.

Waiting too! I just hope they don't mess up the bezel like all other factories have done on the GMT...

We're just waiting for the 1:1 SuperClone Movement like the SA4130. I dont care for the other parts, since it will be replaced with GEN Parts.
But I wont pay 2k for a GEN Movement.

I keep thinking GMT with a A2836 will be always a plan B if we get disappointed by ARF

Also waiting patiently for updates on this rumored release. Anyone know any reliable sources to follow in this?
