Just received my 116520 black dial. What a good quality rep. The rehaut is a step up from all my previous Clean. I don't mind the subdial a bit shinier than how it's supposed to look because I'll change the Gen dial later anyway. Bezel is beautiful, movement winding is gen like, crystal & hands & lume is great.
Show it to my friends who own gen Daytona and they can't tell it's a rep.
Highly recommend.
Pictures!

and also very worn to be "brand new", what was the source/TD? I'm well aware that polished surfaces are scratch-magnetic but damn, this one is literally covered
That was just fingerprint on a polished area. I bought this at my local dealer after 2 week order from Clean.

a bit OT - how does white dial compares to this new release? Does it has major flaws?

Also interested because reading this thread some folks seem to prefer the QF 116520 white dial to the clean white dial… thoughts?
Because of their thinner subdials. Even the black one looks better. Dont know about the print tho but hour markers are huge tell on QF.

Just to confirm. So to date if one is looking for a good/decent 116520 the right/best choice would be CF 116520 black dial v3?

Debating pulling the trigger. Is there any consensus that a new V3 will be released with an updated dial correcting the subdials or will this version be the best we can hope for for awhile.

It's not a hot release so I think it'll take a long time before new version update.

Some bad new for those who like to swap strap like me. The SEL of the Clean 116520 doesn't seem to match the height of the Rubber B strap. So it will be 1mm thicker than the strap thickness. I'm not sure it's the same with gen because normally they'll match the gen specs.

Hi everybody! I just gave GL to this beauty. It seems CF has a new sticker, at least I never saw this "HERO CLEAN" before. I'm now looking forward to holding it in my hands...
