I agree - the color on the true side by side in the second photo is very very close. All in all much better than I expected for a v1And then again on the two pictures isnt the same difference, i thing they pictured it on a hair different light which cause that, while on second picture where they are true side by side the difference is much minimal and which i personally like
I think it will look a lot better when physically have the rep on hand, thank you @CTime !

Yeah mate, for this side by side i would keep it like that rather than try to change and make it worse in the next versions… also the printing is more crisp on the clean LoL

Oh wow didn’t expect that - feel like that’s a no brainer to add a deep when ordering. Especially with CF’s track record on crystals

Looks so nice and clean to be honestSome pics of the SH4131 that clean is using
I’m very curious to see how much play there is in the rotor of the SH4131 vs. the DD4130 given the difference in the number of ball bearings in each of their rotor bearing blocks. I’ll test this when I eventually get an SH4131 on my bench for service.Some pics of the SH4131 that clean is using

Friend, if you have issue with the tiniest of differences on hi-res photos blown up x100 you should get the gen.I think we can all see the difference in tye markers
Likewise if you think the crown sticks out a hair more…assuming it is screwed all the way in. A rep is not for you. Sorry.
Yes there are other mini details that could be corrected, but we’re splitting hairs here. It’s an amazing replication, V1 or not. I think I’ll get both the Panda and Black dial

+1 , i dont think they can even do better than this, as always they will fix a minor thing and ruin other thing… this is a buy for me, waiting for the panda already and thinkin about ordering the black one after CNY definetlyFriend, if you have issue with the tiniest of differences on hi-res photos blown up x100 you should get the gen.

A lot of room for improvement??
I couldn’t disagree more. They’re 95% there and this is just having the gen 2 months.
I mean realistically what are you expecting? Real White gold hands and hour markers? A dial to rival the print quality of the gen? Gen spec PVD Platinum fill? Gen constancy and quality—which even gen is never 100% perfect BTW—Rolex is a luxury watch brand that mass produces roughly 1M watches annually. I’m not saying Clean and others can’t accomplish these Swiss standards. I’m saying it would easily be a 3k rep.
Not trying to insult anyone. Just saying how jaded some newer member can be.
Personally, I’ve ordered the Panda and Black and have no doubt will have same feel and quality in person and on the wrist as other Clean I have.
