Does anyone know the timeline on when the DD movement will be available? I'm pretty sure I read that they are working on it.... ?
In the OP, CTime already has pictures with the movement and confirmed the 24hr chrono is functional.

Correct, but starting around post #7 it is said that tthis is a SH4132.
I've read that DD is working on a 4132 with the 24 hr chrono, i was just asking when this is projected to be available

Uhhhh this isnt even a thing, where did you hear they were making one? I swear the replica game is filled with rumors and misinformation

Lol show me someone who owns a gen and ill show you my feet

The CF looks better than QF, the subdials are meant to be shimmering dots not concentric rings

My new QF with 24hr subdial doesn’t have concentric rings. Do some of the QF versions have that?

Obviously the photos are not of good quality, but just to have a comparison...From left CF, my QF S/S and a Gen

Perhaps you are confusing QF's "baby LeMans" 126519LN which has wrong subdials concentric ring.
CF 126519LN has correct subdials.

Placed an order for the Clean and gonna make a comparison with my tungsten QF
Besides the 24h chrono movement, the CF 1:1 case, the CF bezel known for its excellent workmanship, the thing I like the most (and didn't like on QF) are the thin shiny rings around the sub-dials.

You meant to say: the CF bezel known for its numbers that sit too far to the outer edge of the bezel 😉

It's very obvious on the photos above, and I don't get why they still haven't bothered to update it after what is now more than a year that they have been producing the 12 series Daytona.

Right you said!
Unfortunately it's a flaw that we all know, but I still think it's the best on the rep market.

Bc youre gonna buy it anyway lol
Wont be a v2, they were sweating even with this one, didnt care about the gain weight, all these for one reason: ppl will buy it whatever flaws it has.
If youre bothered with these details you can start lego-ing/upgrading with custom parts

First photos show the flawed bezel with text too close to the edge. No excuse for this,.how can they stuff it up again. And it looks like the red daytona text on dial is too dark just like they messed up on 126519LN. Dammit really wanted to get this or the 126519LN baby lemans.
@CTime you have been made aware of these 2 flaws previously i would hope to think you have some way of getting the feedback to CF.

If you dont like it dont buy it... simple as that. Noone is forcing us to buy any of these replicas and the sense of entitlement is getting insane 😅

What flaws you can tolerate is up to you. If you're worried about minor things like this then perhaps a Daytona shouldnt be what you are buying, a Datejust or a Submariner is more appropiate
