Clean EXPLORER II 226570 black & white with DD3285 comparison Gen Vs. Clean

[derjenigewelcher]

Clean V3 Pepsi GMT is not a NWBIG status yet.

Well I would never pay that amount of money for a gen with only gmt complication.
so for me technically its not worth buying in genuine.

to my eyes GMF looks better

That's why I thought, we wish the Clean factory can beat the GMF, but the truth is the clean don't really want to make better...lol

I think Clean better than GMF already due to the fact it doesnt have a crap setting lever. I mean the best watch is one that works without issues lol. I dont want to play gambling roulette when buying a rep watch.

Actually i've a GMF obviously not working...plan is to buy a Clean and with 2 watches create a better one with the best of two...
It would be nice a comparative between Clean and GMF...who has the better:
Movement..Clean
Bezel...GMF
Crown...GMF
Bracelet...?
Dial...?
Shape...?
Datawheel...?
Cristal...?
Clasp...?
Hands...?
Rehaut....?

So what is the actual crown size of the gen? What crown are they using instead for the rep?
What is the part number for the gen crown 225670?

I think that C+F has made a prettier job for the bezel compared to GMF and Clean. What do you think?
Cannot say much about the rest of the watch, I have not had one in my hands. From the pictures, the bracelet engravings are not that well done.
The Gen 226570 bezel is pricey. I might be worth sourcing a C+F watch only for its bezel

Has anybody tried to swap an VR3285 with an DD3285?

A standard DD3285 won't have the DW in the correct place.

You'll need the DD clone made specifically for the 226570.

Will a gen crown and stem work in the new Clean version??

No idea yet. Gotta see the dimensions of the case tube first.

I'll update once mine comes in. I have it pre-ordered.

Crown should be updated and it's a win.

Photos from Q8WATCHES over on Reptime, is it the same crown or did they fix it already?

 

[Reaps]

I would wait for CTime to post update rather than some random dealer.

I will tag @CTime for moreninfo about updated crown issue.

 

[Yacht-Monster]

I just noticed this and panicked as my BP version is in the mail, a little relieved now as I think I’ll wait for V2. The font and crown need to be corrected for me to shell out for a new watch.

 

[slyclopse]

Would be a big plus if they have changed the crown for production. I've got one on order either way.

 

[Pintorex]

@CTime did Clean update the crown on production with a correct one? I,ve heard something like that!!!

Someone suggested on Reddit they had. Fingers crossed!
