Clean is known for their dials and I would trust CTime's info that the 24 hr counter is working properly. Those that have gotten their QC, has your dealer confirmed the 24hr counter is working properly?

Clean new 126529LN 'Le Mans' release [actual photos]
- Thread starter CTime
- Start date
Can anyone confirm this lack of sunburst rumour ? Surely a dealbreaker for anyone especially considering how good the qf sunburst is …
I would be 100% sure like the QF the Clean also has sunburst finish. People still sometimes say the QF dial is not sunburst but it’s just lighting conditions as is the case with the original dial for the 126529 and black 126519. They show their true sunburst dark grey metallic finish in sunlight.

I'm the Woj of the rep game
Personally I think it's maybe a crock of shit since I trust CTime more than Susan

Sunshine dials: They have a radial pattern that emerges from the center, creating a sun-like effect.
Yeah, Susan isn't always reliable. I had to learn it the hard wayI'm the Woj of the rep game

MEGA PIX: XTAL Comp QF & CF Le Mans (Gen, stock, deep)
Reference guide for all the photos I’ll post: 1:00 = QF Tungsten with old movement + GEN Crystal 2:00 = QF Tungsten with new 24h movement + DEEP 3:00 = Clean Factory Stock 4:00 = Clean Factory Deep Crystal Verdict: Deep isn’t all that necessary on the CF, but it’s a tinge more clear than stock...

Susan wasn’t entirely wrong IMO. Sunburst is barely there.

Respectfully this is not accurate, gen WG carries a more warm-ish almost yellow hue. While I sincerely respect QF's efforts in offering stock plating, its actually done more harm than good in making the bracelet & case brighter and whiter. Closer to platinum

He means the QF "plating" makes it look too Platnium, White Gold from Rolex has a yellowish tone to it, kind of hard to capture on camera but if you've seen it in real life - trust me, it's obvious, once I saw a few Datejust bezels and white gold models, it's obvious.
I've changed my overall analysis to this - QF is the better model for now. Unfortunately with Clean's weaker sunburst, QF is the better choice at this point. They've also "fixed" the concentric rings from v8 on.
If Clean decides to upgrade it a bunch of times then who knows. It did take like 4-5 versions for QF to really nail it. The first 3 QFs didn't have sunbursts, then it had concentric rings, and finally at v8/v9 it is what it is now.
I'll probably pick a v8 QF, plate it in white gold, add a deep crystal and be done with this model.
