ARF 904L 114300 will release very soon

[GWT#1]

Has someone already bought the new BP 114300 OP in white or black?
I know it’s blue lumed and markers are not that great, but I’m very tempted by ETA clone and saving money..
So I’m just wondering if someone has already one and is going to share his experience.

Never understood ETA clone in a watch that should be 3132 movement eta is no better than the Shanghai clones are and time setting is correct just don’t understand???

Heresy JF, it's awesome. Only thing I wanna change is the clasp for an ARF one.

ETA you can swap with a Gen one if the clone breaks if a 3132 breaks good luck to fix that.

Well that’s one of the main point.

Then I think it’s quite way of life: on one side we have a 7/10 BP that will be a lot cheaper in the whole life whatever may happen, on the other hand the 9/10 ARF and the well known issues.
Difference in cost isn’t little, so I can understand both ways.
A third one could be a an used JF if the price is fair.

Hey guys, was looking into getting the JF Grape dial but saw that ARF started making these new ones in black and white for now. I don't mind price, so are there any differences between the two besides the type of steel? Any news on when ARF will be releasing a Grape Dial version ?

has anyone noticed the sunburst isn't there on the black, and the 3 6 9 on the current gen is larger indicators than the rest? any beef with the white one? other than the dial print? and i agree, for the price i would rather have 316, i personally don't see a difference and if someone can convince me otherwise i say f 904.

Sometimes I wonder how and why they mess up even the simplest watches. I mean the OP is certainly not complicated nor is the dial full of details.

This guy is most likely a scammer, pimping supposedly US produced replicas, but until now all the ones he has reviewed are from the major chinese factories:

Do you think this is ARF or BP? Seeing the dial my money is on ARF, and I have to say it looks pretty good

EDIT: correct link now

Puretime just listed new OPs in blue/grey/grape, no details yet and I'm not experienced enough to tell from the pics if it's the missing ARFs.

EDIT: Actually movement photo is identical to the white ARF so I'm guessing it is.

should be the ARF`s. What are the experts saying about the dials?

Same Blue Dial issue, I think the best choice still Grape , grey olso not matchnGen 100% but still best than Blue.

i am no expert, but the square markers in 3,6,9 and the round hole of the coronet instead of more oval could be better
hands look good, maybe not 3D
