I am a noob, I asked two trusted TDs on the forum to order GMT from Clean, and one of them told me that GMT from Clean have long waits of 1-3 months, however others have not told me that and tell me that They have it available. Is it possible that one of the TDs has them in stock and the other does not or how does it work? thank you

Yes, that is how it works. Some dealers stock up on watches that are popular when they're available, cutting wait times.

Some TD's also have better relationships with factories, allowing for easier access to the watches.

I'm pretty sure Steve over at TheOneWatches has a "stock list" that you can browse through if you ask him, some of the models still won't be in stock even if it shows up on there though... I'm not aware of any TD that updates their website. I keep telling myself that it's annoying but then again this is an illegal hobby and these guys aren't Walmart or Amazon, so for them to even have a working website in the first place is nice enough lol
Goodluck with your search!

Also when a TD says "it's available" it doesn't mean they have it in hand but it's available from the factory and can be ordered. It would probably be your best option to get in touch with Ctime as they seem to have a really good relationship with Clean Factory.

Clean Factory stocks are always short in stocks due to their earlier issues with movement Factories.

They also met up with some issues earlier on with authorities but I think they have managed to settle that.

Most TDs will say they have stocks but what they mean is they will order in when order is placed and paid for. Each TD have their own way ot handling stuff.

Cheers.
