GMF Day-Date 40mm Tungsten Heavy Version

[Latarian]

Regarding the upgraded DD3255 movement, Trustytime confirmed it's been used since V2 onwards so nothing new for V3 except that I can see the oscillating weight is decorated now.

Have anyone tried the QF “gain weight” day date?

QF is nice, but case shape is off on it as well as day/date font/thickness, dial color, dial font is too amber and not yellow enough, QF loves using opaque milky gaskets too. I sold mine because I couldn't get over case shape, but it was a nice looking watch.

That ARF dial looks amazing!

Thank you for this thorough answer. I’ve had gmf’s before and thought that I might get into day dates again for a lower price but it looks like QF are a bit too cheap

GMF and QF are practically the same factory.. GMF uses the same case as QF.

Yeah but I don’t mind the case shape, I just thought the dial looked washed out.

Got my THB V3 and I have to say I'm not happy. The calenders appear left skewed and the ombre dial doesn't look close to gen to my eye. I will say the weight feels very nice. It's not exactly gen but damn it's pretty close. Maybe v4 will be better.

Yeah the print on the day looks off and not just the spacing but also the font

Yeah I can't believe how bad it is. I'm interested to see what other members get

Mine was same. RL for me. Seller tells me they're out of stock now and making a new batch so hopefully they'll address it.

Does THB produce the best DD40 right now? I’m in between GMF or QF but unsure after seeing these THB pictures.

Yes and no. Best weighted probably but not most accurate

It's a shame

 

[acesup11]

This I getting ridiculous. Look at the "A" and letters in the day wheel.

My dealer said not to ask for thb because all the fonts are like that

 

[mmaggi]

I was just going to say: Why are people buying THB? What's wrong with GMF? I have a GMF DD and it's perfect for a rep.
