Actually frankening a 32xx movement is cheaper than 31xx these days from what I've seen...
Because the 32xx movement is only a few years old and there's already been a ton of problems and issues reported, with lots of repairs already having been done, which is why so many 32xx parts, used and refurbished, are available all over the place.

I'm sure Rolex will eventually get it right and do a silent upgrade, cause I don't think they'll want the negative press of recalling or scraping the 32xx movements in favor of a new 33xx movement so soon.

Rolex movement is becoming like Windows OS: good, bad, good, bad, bad, good, bad, bad, bad, terrible. 😉

The Date fonts are thick. Is there any way to swap the correct date wheel without replacing it with GEN DW?

Datediscs are so expensive- am I looking in the wrong place?
If we talk about date discs, you are right, the blistered ones increased with at least 30% since 1,5 years ago and the used in good condition ones are quite rare...

@CTime

Did CLEAN ask you to name this movement a CLEAN3285 (because they paid for exclusive rights to it)? Or can you call it what you want?

Asking because it makes more sense to us to call it a DD3285 as another TD has done.

It's both ok Clean or Dandong. This movement is exclusively offered to Clean, but members here prefer to call the movement with its factory location. It's totally ok as long as you guys know which factory produced it.

Any word on availability of this on an Oyster bracelet? A true 126710 Batman with DD3825?

You mean bezel play, bezel lip and two colors under UV light? Also still holding me off a bit…
Yes!
A properly working bezel rotation and lip is long overdue. Plus a correct shaped GMT case!

As for the insert being a single red color under UV light: If Xing can do it, Clean should be able to do it to.

Till then, I'll be holding off as well.

Xing is an independent maker/seller of a one piece BLRO insert, with colors that are more accurate than those of current rep factory offerings. It also shows up all red under UV light, the same as gen Rolex BLRO.

RWI thread: Xing vs Clean BLRO.

@KJ2020 - probably a stupid question but is the DD3285 compatible with gen datewheels that I have in my VR3186's?

Considering getting these new DD3285 versions but would like to swap in my gen xtal/dw's from current builds.
