ARF Batman Prototype

[KJ2020]

I’m glad we have a couple enthusiast GMT masters (pun) here. I’m hoping this ARF hype isn’t for nothing but it’s seeming more and more like it’s not the real deal

The case shape will be great for the 126710 when they release it. It should follow soon enough. The insert looks to be the best available, so suffer through a movement change and all in it's about the same price as a Noob Pepsi and you still have a timebomb in that one, lol.

We want an accurate Batman insert, case, cg, lugs are minor details. DW and cristal we can fix, a great blnr insert is just unavailable at the moment

I’m actually someone who doesn’t love the jubilee on the 126710 but I’m happy passing off the ARF as a 126710 with oyster bracelet. Just need to remember to order a VR movement with it for a swap.

Ya man I agree, I’m just hoping it’s nicer than the rest. I’ve always been impressed by the arf ceramic. Except the super deep cuts in one I had.

Bad idea, we would produce the perfect rep and have nothing to talk about!

But we could pitch a reality tv show on where it all went wrong

It looks like ARF used a gen 126710 to model it's CG's from, so they are a tad skinny to be on a rep 116710 model.

It looks like VRF used a gen 116710 to model its CG's from, so they are tad too wide to be on a rep 126710 model.

The way they mix and match stuff can drive you crazy if you let it.

Kayatsu1 You are right bro, the ARF CG's are off for a 116710. I forgot to compare apples to apples.

Thank you very much bro. Can you add Noob CG on this pic please?

Then wait for 126710 jubilee blnr from arf and cgs are correct

I think ARF may have been a bit overhyped during old days. We are expecting too much from them. They continue to come up with faulty products. Maybe it's just the best they can do. Hopefully Clean Factory can produce a decent dial

Well they were a step up from noob in some of
The smaller details back then. But they haven’t improved since.

I got a generic email stating that the watch was on backorder and to wait 15 days for QC photos.
