I looked at the pics of the DIWF Black Rainbow Daytona ... and it seems the chrono subdials at 3 and 9 position are also moving ... I thought that's not possible with Asia 7750 movement?! ... they usually are just faux and have no function then?! Does anyone know how it is with this model?
Does anyone know if CF is coming out with a meteorite Daytona model?

Chronos work on most rep 7750s. It's just "standard practice" not to use them because often the native subdial positions of 6 9 12 have to be moved or functions swapped. This involves using extra gears and transfer plates which are lower quality and if something breaks it can disable more than just the chronos.
The ARF 7750 is the one with frozen 3 9 subdials, another mod done to achieve gen-like thinness. Now there are slim 7750s with fully functional chronos.
Ah, interesting. I thought on most 7750s the 3 and 9 chrono subdials don't work (I read that quite often in the description of the watches (and sometimes it's not clearly mentioned)) ... also because it was such a breakthrough with the superclones with 4130 movement and the advertised "now fully functional chrono incl. subdials".
Hm, are the 7750s with fully functional chronos then also working "correctly" ... I mean like the 4130: counting 30min rounds on the 3 subdial and 1h rounds on the 9 subdial?
If they (the 7750s) now are also slim so that the case can have gen-like thinness ... wow. I hope the much more expensive 4130s are then still worth their money?!
I’m a business guy, and I’m really curious how the investment decisions are made at the factory executive level. Should we invest in repping a new model? Should we revamp an old release to a new version? Is it worth developing a clone movement? Etc etc… the business is huge and the dollars sloshing around are non-trivial, but due to the illegal nature of the business, basically nothing is public ally known.
I wonder how a series in this style bout the rep watch industry would hit the streaming market, hah! I see some real drama potential there with secret agents from the big luxury watch companies trying to track down the high end rep factories ...
yes 7750 are as slim as the 4130 today and work likewise.
They are a cheap alternative and will not drag the price of dandong 4130 models down: they are not clone movements, they are reworked 7750 and inherently lower grade. They have some subtle but evident flaws: the base of the hands is much larger (on top of not accepting gen hands obviously) and the pushers are longer.
One is a CLONE movement and one of the best clones we have as of today; the other is not.
Hi guys
News heard from Clean Factory.
They are going to release many more Daytona new models very soon, likely around end of April 2022.
Some popular models like 116519LN, 116508 Green Dial etc.
Those dials shown as follows are genuine dials the factory prepared for replicating (Not all the dials they have)
Here are 2 pictures of 116508 rep dial vs genuine blow too:
The red line on this rep sample dial is kinda too bright still, and they are trying to adjust this before the official release.
We also got their new made OysterFlex rubber strap (will be used on their new rubber strap Daytona models) earlier today.
Some info and pictures shared as follows:
Some extra info, they are doing nice quality AP rubber straps for 15500 models now too.
Based on my daily inquiries received from customers, many people are look for a good quality aftermarket rubber strap for Royal Oak models.
So these ones shall be a very good choice by now.
Wish you all the best.
Is there a date for the release?
What combination of straps come delivered with the CF Oysterflex Daytona's? Do TD's let you choose the size of the straps?
