Could someone tell me if CF and VSF have adjusted the size of the indices in the DJ36 dials? I remember that in the first versions the markers were too big.
Thanks

Xing bezel for dj 36 is a total scam. I've ordered one and once recieved I couldn't tell a difference with the clean bezel. My watchsmith couldn't either, so I would definitely stay clear of Xing bezels for the 36 mm.

what is the best base for a franken DJ36?
I just need case, bracelet and movement.
Thank you

CF case and bracelet are miles ahead of VS!

i dont know if you'll find issues putting on CF hands on a VSF movement.. CF hands are superior

Movement (VR=CF) is good, zero problems. Prefer the VS movement just because of bit better power reserve (winding & accuracy is the same).

Gen parts (dial, hands and dw) will fix on both?

I read in the DJ41 thread that they both use the same ARF bracelet. Is that not the case with the 36?
