Mines the most accurate rep I’ve ever owned, I can wear it for 3 days and it’ll only lose a second or two maximum so I’ve only got good things to say about it. I’ve had a dandong 3135 in a Vsf sub and that was losing 30 seconds a day out the box. I think it’s just luck of the draw but from my experience and what I’ve seen from others it’s a reliable movement
Thanks for the feedback. I got concerned when it was mentioned to me by this TD that they had a couple of issues with this movement and it was difficult to get them repaired or get parts for them.Mines the most accurate rep I’ve ever owned, I can wear it for 3 days and it’ll only lose a second or two maximum so I’ve only got good things to say about it.

That’s good to know. The feedback I got seemed to imply it wasn’t worth the hassle due to not being able to get them fixed or getting parts. That concerns me hence, trying to gauge how big of an issue the potential movement issue is?
That looks like a great example. I started out my search for this model but, have recently been drawn to the ceramic version as my first purchase. No doubt, I‘ll look to add one like yours in the future. As a guide are you able to give an idea how much the dial, bezel and glass upgrades cost to do?I’ve got a Clean v3 as well and I absolutely love it, I bought it few months ago and changed dial, bezel and glass to Gen and it became hands down my favorite watch. No issue with the movement for now, it keeps great time even after a week, but let’s see in the long run. For now, I definitely recommend this watch, even out of the box is wonderful!
Yes, the ceramic one is absolutely fantastic but the gen parts are rare and way too expensive, the parts for 116520 are easier to find and cheaper (green lume cheaper than blue lume), I've sourced mine in the span of 3 years, once I had them all and found the perfect base watch (Clean) I started the project. I think I spent around 2K/2.5K€ for the parts and I fitted them myself so no extra cost in that. Next I'll change the hands and possibly the crown one day.
