Clean Factory Batman

[rssid]

Thanks for the reply there ! Possible to list the cost of the upgrades you did ?

Just got mine and only thing i did was to clean out all the white greese they put into the click ring. The rest seems pretty good so far

The crystal was probably $350 if I recall, the rest will depend on the modder you work with

Is there a clean v3 version of the Batman? I see at least 1 TD has a v3 clean version.

I'm also interested in an answer to this, if anyone has any info? I just pulled the trigger on a Clean Batgirl v2

My franken Clean Batman, with gen xtal, fixed bezel and reworked bracelet. This is a very enjoyable rep, nicely modded by @legend

By fixed bezel do you mean it is now stationary and does not rotate now or that legend “fixed” the bezel issues? I just got my clean Batman and the click spring is terrible! I ordered a replacement off aliexpress to see if it’s any improvement while I try to hunt down a Gen click spring.

I got it fixed as it now rotates as it should. Makes a big difference indeed

Awesome that was my biggest complaint about my clean I just got, along with the fluidity of the bracelet around the endlinks .

A baby oil/mineral oil bath of your bracelet overnight will do wonders. It's a must do on any rep stainless bracelet I get. Wash it off with some soapy water and a clean tooth brush and dry it and you're good to go!

Have any of you had a chance to try c+ Batman?

Hi folks! Planning to get a batman but having a hard time deciding between a 116710 and a 126710.. JTime’s site also lists the 116710 as far more expensive than the 126710, pricier by around $260…

Any insights please if the additional $260 for the 116710 is worth it? Or if the 126710 is already good to grab? Thank you!

Not sure where you are looking but the 116710 and the 126710 are both 518$ usd on Jtime?

Well that explains it you aren’t on the real Jtime site. The real url for his site is below

JTIME

JTIME WATCH

jtime.io

Always check the TD section for the up to date website addresses and there are a lot of fake sites aswell as email promotions from TDs always have to confirm it is correct

Thanks!! That explains why. Already bought 2 pieces from JTime in the past and yeah I recall seeing the URL as .io, for some reason I strayed on a different one this time. I appreciate it!

Pulled the trigger for a batman thru JTime.. looking forward to getting the QC Pics.. hoping the wait to be not that long

Hi guys,

I'm looking to get a Batman, to build a good Franken, with most gen parts that I can afford, for the base watch, what is the best option ?

Thx for the help

I just went with the clean and plan to do the following Gen parts

Dial
Hand set
Datewheel
Crystal
Crown/tube
Bezel (maybe some day the insert too but $$$$)
Bezel mechanics (click spring/tension ring/retainer ring /hytrel)

May swap a few movement parts with Gen if I get bored.
