I really wonder how CF messed the GMT inserts up on these models since they have been so successful in the Sub inserts.
I am also suspicious about the movement when looking at the DW printing and positioning. They are just not on par with the usual renowned standards of VR3185.

The process for making bi-color inserts is MUCH more difficult to perfect vs the solid inserts. Also, I’d say they did a great job on the Pepsi. I received my BLRO yesterday and I can say with confidence the insert is wonderful. Best I’ve seen on any of my previous BLRO’s - (ROF, Noob, VRF). Is the watch 100% perfect? Nope. But I am happy with it.

I should have my QC’s for the Batman next week from Li. I’m expecting to see similar standards as I see in my Pepsi. I’ll wait and see my QC’s before I say they “messed up” the Batman.

Because ZZF have a track record of throwing old stock and parts out into the market under the guise of it being a new Clean model.

To be fair, a 2 tone ceramic insert is much more challenging but the above stands.

From the BLRO thread showing the dirty "new version VR GMT movement" further strengthen the suspicion of it being truly a VR.
Was thinking to get the CF 116710 Batman, but now will withhold to see more QC pics of the real watch first.

I don't think whoever posted that was around when ceramic inserts really had speed bumps.

These inserts are miles better than the 5 or 6 Noob, BP, VRF, GMF, aftermarket, etc Batman inserts that I still have lying around. In harsh direct light at the right angle, the ARF Batman insert is just as revealing.

I was quite content for a couple years with my (now inferior) paint modded aftermarket Batman insert. Thin and shallow markers, non-curved 1 serifs, not the most accurate blue, it was still a notch above what most rep factories were making.

But now we have this and people still act like it's garbage.

Obviously they don't know how far rep bicolor inserts have come, or recognize that it will be a LONG time before there's anything better.

I got the Pepsi from Clean Factory I am waiting to be shipped. I think is a petty good

I don’t understand this type of discussion you have purchased a fake watch for 500 dólares and bitch about details like this. Be happy to seeing it working. Otherwise get 26k in the bank and buy a GEN.

Guess you don’t. To be honest I regret not having 1000 Noob Daytona’s now. People are willing to pay top $’s on it now.

I ordered a Batman from Li as well as a second bracelet because nice bracelets come in handy and I have big wrists.

I do not understand the level of hate this watch is getting. ZzfCF has a sketchy history but they have made a best of GMT for the time being.

I guess some people dont understand the bezel is complete garbage and is not worth $500.
