Wow amazing, May I ask which TD are you getting your ARF V2 from?

I’m a 36mm DJ kinda guy. I wear suits and shirts for work.
The SD44 is very top heavy but still have a nice fit. Its not a suit watch, its out of place in the boardroom but fits well at the boardwalk.
The SD43 do have a better fit but my V1 is inferior to my SD44 V2.
I have an 8” wrist

Very interesting - you have a larger wrist than me and like the datejust 36mm, which I just automatically assumed would look like a lady's watch on my wrist.

36mm DJ is just perfect!

The thickness difference is not insignificant

Indeed, but the SD43 wider bracelet helps even out the weight. Still SD44 is my favorite.

You choose the Deep Sea with the SH3135. Is the Deep Sea with the A2836 the same quality and only the movement is an other?

The exterior is identical.

The exterior is identical.

2824 would be identical, 2836 would have slightly off crown height

 

[muiramas]

ARF uses 2824 = same crown height as a 3135.

in the shop there is only a Deepsea with a 2836 but not with a 2824 @muiramas

Pictures in the OP look great. My only reservation in buying the ARF Blue has been that the Blue has never looked right. I know the OP says it is perfect in this version, does anybody else have any experience with it and thoughts on the quality of the Colour? Many Thanks

On another note I have the latest ARF SD43 and the Bezel is so wobbly it's crazy. It makes a loud clicking sound every time you touch an edge. Anybody else had this issue?

SD43 bezel assembly is absolutely terrible! ARF44 is better.

Are you still happy with the 'Blue' dial - i.e that it looks more authentic than previous versions?

I love it. It’s a great REP and dial looks amazing.

Which is the most reliable mov't you can get in the DSSD Blue-D right now...and can it be swapped for true ETA for reliability sake in the future? Man I am ready to order one of these!!

 

[GTgamo]

With proper service - everything that i have read indicates that it is a fairly reliable movt as it is.. But if you want something better - there is a Yuki movement but - they are fairly difficult to find, as a movement only.

 

[GTgamo]

Anyone know when the "updated" version with the 2018 mods are going to be introduced - the dial color really looks spot on.. Very nice indeed....

 

[rwifreak]

GTgamo thank you very much I am trying to find ARF with asian 2824 so I can do a legit ETA 2824 swap...
