I hope other factories besides Clean will have access to the 4130 movement.
Also, that means that there's less risk of the movement disappearing like before (or like the VS3235 did) if/when the next batch of raids come along.

+2 for 116520 white dial for me. Noob always had incorrect font spacing on white dial. Hope CF can replicate APH dial!

what is APH dial for the 116520? Never heard about it before. Would love to hear more.

Hey your post signature looks very familiar LOL

The stainless steel Daytona reference 116520 has coined the nickname “APH dial “due to a gap in the word COSMOGR APH – and is now deemed very collectable, with a limited number produced over just a few years.

Yes I took yours as inspo base, also I see you are a Blink. xD

So a flaw is collectable thing now? lol this hobby of ours is funny in many different ways... well I guess I will not care about APH thing. I thought it was a factory or modder doing god level dials lmao

Yes the flaw is collectible as it is on the GEN dials where flaws appear let’s say not that often :)

Better for head pain,definetly would be better if one factory will make it and you have only that choice

Why would you want only one choice? A factory with sole access to the 4130 movement will have no incentive to improve their Daytona. If other factories have access to the movement it would lead only to better and lower priced models.

certainly. but it will be necessary to understand if the 4130 movement is granted exclusively to Clean or not. if it is free to access the market, we will certainly see more.
however, it seems to me that ARF already works very well with clean. ARF is unlikely to compete with clean.

vsf is an unknown, nevertheless, even at its peak of life, it has never thought of making a daytona, it is difficult for me to think that it can propose it post mortem.

who stays? ewf? Gmf? Mh

Call me nuts but I just made the payment. Will post the QC pics when they arrive.

Not nuts, fair play Sir, congrats.
l look forward to seeing your QC, shall start putting some money aside now for 2022 :p

Did you go for a 116500 or 116520?

Seems to be conflicting info on the site though:

116520 USD738
116500 USD758.

&
116520 USD768
116500 USD788.

Hope it's the first price ;)

well after we have seen, with the stance of hont, renamed mr. 888, due to his immediate availability of vs .. at the beginning we will be able to witness a similar situation. the tds that are closest to clean, could have them before (and we already know that it will be so) and .. sell them with a few usd more, as, instead, the opposite could happen, due to the commercial law of large quantities ..

Oh wow, hope the prices stabilise after the initial hype.

2022 will be an interesting year for sure, definitely after CNY, as I would love a 116506 myself.

Congrats again :thumbsup:

But you’re right, with clean the first batch is close but v1.1 is their “perfected” version. Good thing is that you don’t have to wait a year for deliberate and planned updates
