Clean Factory New Release 126711 RootBeer GMT (Comparison vs. Genuine)

[jtimewatch]

Hi guys

Many people might already knew the new clean factory 126711 RootBeer GMT has been listed on my website already.
Now it is already available for order.

Since it is also a popular model that many people want to know more details about it, here I am to provide some details comparison pictures with genuine one.

Pictures will be as follows:

All the best

It's good to see these in the same lighting. Because again, they messed up the color. It's the one true thing you can see from 10 feet away. Orange pumpkin on your wrist, lol. If you want something with accurate color, you should probably go with GMF (rootbeer), which is sad because GMF can pull off a color that Clean can not.

It still seems to me like they're using 11 series Sub cases on this model... example:

Lugs are too fat and wide for a CHNR

This looks really good overall. Glad I've held off til now on a CHNR.

Some very minor differences, but nothing that will bother most people.

The lugs are slightly fat, with less angled tips

CGs are a little wide but angles are fine

Rehaut R's right leg is too extended. Keep on Truckin' haha

Looks like it has the famous milky crystal/gasket

Hands and dial dial look well done, insert appears CLEAN superb. I think the color will be OK for most IRL, bezel looks nice. The big question is how does it rotate?

Looks promising!

I don't think this is by accident, they're cost custting by using 11x Sub cases

In the GeekTime pic the top is tilted back a little so you don't see the lug tips. It makes the lugs appear fatter than they are.

Here's a video of the watch in motion: https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1iV4y1T7jc/?vd_source=a91704975c88b581f29e9aead1e2eeb6

It looks like a Sub case to me.

They do look very similar. You could be right. Who knows what the factories do, it is CLEAN haha. I dont think there is enough difference from gen to be a dealbreaker though, there are slight differences in gen model cases over the years. I've used a Noob 116610 case to make a fantasy 116710, nobody's the wiser. I seldom even think about it when I wear it.

In the pics below I think the CHNR lugs look a little thinner. There's also an extra little indented curve near the tip in the CHNR.

honestly wouldn't care about case shape, the colour screams out at you anyway.... wouldn't pass the sniff test from across the room that one

Not the same watch but my gen. DJ41 Everose shows the correct RG and that Clean is wayyyy off

 

[mikeanh77]

i dont think i can spot fake rg, maybe will order one to make a comparison if enough people wants it.
i have a gen rootbeer , i i myself wants to get it to see how good is the clean rep

Fair point bro. Damn that's a nice piece!

I would never wear any rep around a gen though and unless you're very familiar with Rolex Everose I don't think the color is bad. I asked my wife which of these looked gen and she had to guess. Got it wrong.

For me it is a beautiful piece and i don t see all thoose claimed flaws that someone speak about …..nobody could call me out from a mile and neither from 10 cm without a lupe and a gen close mine.

this is my way of thinking…they are reps…..and they are very very good reps .

lupe 10x….bah…

I agree with you 99.9% of the time on those flaws because no gives a shit about a Rehaut 5 feet away, lol. But the everose color is something I could absolutely call out from 20 feet away. Because I have owned Gen, and seen many of them in RL, it's the one thing they need to get right. Orange copper RG is not Rolex. Everrose is a very soft pink in RL lighting and when you see it in person you never forget it.

I agree and it's especially abhorrent in their new RG YM40 model on OF. It's copper as fuck and stands out more since the entire case is PM.

 

[DustyDude]

Not an issue at all....bring it to a modder and he will plate it....will look like gen.
bring your gen and he can take the exact same colour...

i really love how this turned out....cant see a single flaw...especially not when peopel talk about a macro shot and flaws....are you serious?

but once this is plated....it really looks amazing!

Here's a Gen/Clean comparison video.

Here's a Gen/Clean comparison video.

I think it doesn't look as Orangey in the video. Jtime studio lighting has a bad tendency of over saturating some colors. It's a little different than gen of course but I think many of us will not be put off by that.

When are they going to drop the full RG version?
