You don't need a detector. It was visually obvious sarcasm.

I'm always happy when new members come in and help us opening our eyes. So grateful

I'll think you need it

but the pivot is not visually obvious.

I read a post that stated it was visually obvious before having actually seen the hands, so for me it was anecdotally obvious. Then I saw the hands and realised it was indeed visually obvious.
I bet if you touched them with your finger tips it would be tactually obvious there are issues with their size and proportions.

This is eschatologically obvious.

great post @CTime these are incredibly valuable resources to the community.

I would love to see a Clean vs. VSF vs. Gen comparison for the 36mm explorer in the future.

Thx again for the great work!

This

And this


& I recall a quote elsewhere, can't remember who, but "If you want gen spec, you pay gen price"

Probably first time this picture comes on my radar not posted from @trailboss99 . and also here, its completely correct.

Cool watch! When they finish out the flaws I'll pick one up to round the Explorer collection.

Wondering if VSF has the hands flaw now.

Its intended I guess. CLEAN work so exactly this CANT pass internal QC. You cant tell me that. Its a casual v2 v3 v4 flaw.

Hour hand is shorter than gen needs correct hand stack

Looks that they use the hands from the 214270

Happens when you order 10'000 hand sets from part supplier but only 5000 dials for the old reference, so you can order 5000 new reference dials.

We have noticed the hand problem on this sample watch, Clean said the main stock will have correct hands on, will update here when they arrive

Wow. Its impressive what impact you have on Clean. Looking forward, this could be THE release.

Following for this - my credit card is not happy about it though.

I have the new 36mm by clean and 39mm gen, and they are basically identical in terms of markers, lettering quality, case, etc. Clean does a good job on these. Threw me off not being able to see any real differences.

Now this goes on my shopping list. Thank you @CTime for the nice photo review.

A hot buy candidate. Waiting for the update.

How likely is it, that VSF brings a good version of this item?

I like their 72 hours power reserve.

They have already a slightly differen 36 mm
