So finally got round to changing my dial to the Arabic dial. I decided to go for the Tiffany Blue one.
I love it! It soo cool.

I love that dial.

I’ll probably will be posting my ewf from nembo up for sale. I got it as a test to see if it’s something I’d want in gen. It is. Great size and that color…. The Tiffany dial is stunning.

by the arm hair/jungle I can tell the dial hits home :)

LOL! I have trimmed my jungle hair a little.
Yes the dial does need trimming. If you know a good man, he will know what to do.
I do need to get a set of hands for the OP as the ones on the GMF are a tad short.

Hopefully ARF will release one. I had the black dial 39 114300 and it was exceptional

Just got my QC pics from TrustyTime on a GMF 124300 in blue with A3230 movement. Everything looked good to me so gave Andrew the go ahead but have to share the movement accuracy check.
I'm impressed... If I'm reading this right, it looks super accurate???? -1sec per day!!!

I think you may have been sold an EWF for the yellow dial. hands are too long to be GMF as the GMF minute hand is too short. the lume material is a different colour on the hands compared to dial markers… another characteristic of the EWF.

i totally agree.. i have ewf and gmf ops.. the differences between them are exactly the same as in this photo. Yellow is definitely ewf (see the serial number) and tiffany is gmf.

If you look at jtime EWF and GMF now have same photos and price.. maybe they have merged? So the different one will be only the BPF in 316f steel

Just checked jtime page. He has no EWF oyster perpetual. GMF price on jtime is 388usd (for both 41 and 36mm)

other dealers have EWf for 278-298usd .. I doubt that they merged.


One time I asked trustytime about EWF using 904 steel and he said that might be false because of its price its most likely 316 steel despite the factory claim of 904!

you are correct.. even the only 70 dollars difference between 126000 GMF and BP is tricky.. for 70 you get 904l and 3230 movement :confused:

Has anyone ordered the BP/GMF recently? I was really hoping they'd have fixed the fat bezel by now, but it doesn't seem like it...

I love it! It's the perfect daily wear watch. I dont have a pic on the wrist but I will post one later.
Mine came with a minor issue with the movement, the crown won't wind it but movement does. Andrew from TT told me to ship it back and he'd take care of it, but I decided not to send it back and just get it repaired and fully serviced locally since it's gona be my daily wear.
