Clean Factory New Submariner Series Review (Incl. Comparison Pics vs Gen)

[StreetFighter]

I've accepted the watch because everything else looks spot on and, since VSF is out of the game, this is the best sub no date I can get...

It's fine. Most gens that have seen a polish lose the square edges on the lugs and cg's, nobody seems to care so I wouldn't bother too much. I was more making a point to the guy I quoted rather than picking apart your new watch. If I was to discuss the things that are right about it we'd be here a good bit longer that's for sure.

Here you go.. perfect example just arrived..

This is the top view of the cg issue thing...

this is more like GMT Master..

..compared to the angular tips on the gen/vsf Submariner..



It's very minor.. but the devil is in the detail..

You are not selling your vsf by any chance? Lol

Those who had sold their VSF's must somehow regret by now

If any one want's I can list a Clean 116610LN for sale, it has got very little wear and has been sitting in the box. Was bought together with Clean 114060 from JTime when they came out early this year.

I remember when the ZZF guys like Kalev used to photobomb every single sub-thread with pictures of their ZZF Subs. You reap what you sow kids.

ZZF is now Clean, and has the same quality as before.
Plus, you can buy a Clean and not a VSF.

So, I think it's safe to expect more ZZF/CLEAN photobombs.

just approved my LB with correct CGs

Looks like old case to me, the stickers seem to distort the reflections.

Unfortunately no they are straight, it is just the angle of the watch

 

[wubsub]

is there any stock/available Clean 116613LN two tone black? Heard only bluesy available..

 

[Fisherman1980]

Are these cgs different?? I'm pretty picky,, but what am I missing?

Is it me or do the lugs appear fatter on the "clean" zzf vs. GEN

 

[JohnnyDangerous]

Is anyone able to confiirm or deny that this that I received mid-September is a ZZF 114060 V3?

Colleagues I think I can ask a question here and I'm in the topic:

when compared two CF representatives:
116610LN movement 3135 VS 126610LN movement 3235

What do you think about:
design quality (eliminated deficiencies). I think the Model 116640 takes longer to produce and is perhaps more tuned?
moment - what do you prefer?

Which you would prefer when buying (I know about the differences) I am primarily concerned with VS quality and movement processing, possible future problems - failures

Thanks

 

[For125]

Edit:

or do you prefer the "NO DATE" solution because there is no "CYKLOP" ?

thanks

 

[Fisherman1980]

No date is nice. One less "tell" that its a replica

I have gen crystal on no-date

Another question I have is... In the gen 114060, is it possible to see the brass pin through the center hole in the dial? I purchased this as a ZZF

You need gen hands (or at least seconds hand) to fix that

But the seconds hand is at the top of the stack... How does that fix what I see through the hole in the dial?
