Possibly, but the DD3285 may not be easy to purchase separately. This was (and is) the case with the vs3235 movement — impossibly to buy except inside a VSF watch.
Are you saying we should wait for the CF explorer 2 with Dandong movement? 😀

I’m honestly very surprised there isn’t more activity here. I’m no expert but this looks great to me. Been waiting for a good one for years!

Just for those who might have missed it, clean version in the works:

Wait or buy...?
Yes, I indeed missed that one. Thanks for sharing. It doesn’t help me in making my mind though. To wait or not to wait…

Sure, but the more the merrier, no?
Oh of course. I just didn’t see any feedback on them. Then a bunch of posts about how they’ll be posting qc’s. Just didn’t want anyone to miss out that’s all.

Latest life updates, someone at home dropped my VSF submariner. The watch stopped working, I send it to my watchmaker, balance bridge is broken. Im devastated, so I will be ordering the GMF Explorer just to feel better.

ps: it was me who dropped it, what an idiot...

I'd probably need two new reps to feel better...
Bummer, sorry for what happened to you. Keep it up!

Insert meme with the guy sabotaging his bike ride here 😂

Sorry to hear, the only fair thing is for "that" person who dropped it to pay for a new GMF i guess...

Yeah, horrible feeling. Not going into details but literally something that I avoid doing for a reason, the one time I did not, then I pay the price. Gutted.

I wrote the balance bridge is broken, but I meant the balance wheel. And also some jewels (watchmaker diagnosis).

I just inquired about the GMF explorer 2 in black and I might order another VSF submariner just to replace the other.

Lol, I’ll definitely get the GMF now. Just waiting for my guy to send me the cost. This guy does all the QC for me and brings the watches in record time (so far). He charges a premium on top but I don’t have to deal with international postage, import duties and possible custom issues. So well worth it.
