Has anyone gotten their hands on the new Clean V2 Dayton 126500 with DD4131? Wondering if they fixed some of the previous issues, particularly the crystal.

Not necessarily issues but more the need for deep xtal install.. With VSF, there was no need to replace.

Lol honestly speaking the 126500 daytona doesn't need Deep. Nice but not necessary. Another one of those replica myths that get parroted around by noobs until it becomes a "fact"

There was never a "need" on the 126500. Deep xtal looks great, but it's actually overdoing things, and the Clean xtal is closer to gen than the Deep xtal.
If you just care for maximum clarity, then sure, get a Deep. Otherwise the Clean is good enough.

Things were different on the 116500 model, so this is why some keep repeating that a xtal swap on the Clean is recommended.

Are all the new Clean Daytona coming with the DD? Some dealers told me that they are getting it random as in some with SA and some with DD.
Maybe some dealers are still getting old stock......

I asked Andiot and he said it was only the panda that has the dd so far. Don’t know if it’s true

Nice. So if I buy either one now they should come with the dd movement?
Some dealers might still have old stock, so better ask for confirmation (or for a photo of the movement).

I will ask specifically for dd when I order. How do I see the difference between the movements?

I was and srill am kind of a VS fanboy. When it comes to Dndong Movements anyway, and the VS xtal supliers with cyclopse are superb. But a lot of bew people should know that Dandong/peacock sells basic unengraved movement to the factorys, who unmoubt and engrave the movements and build them back together.
Payd per piece as i guess, lubeing perfectly is not priority number one.

Thats why I preferred the (cheaper, lol) sbf daytona (vsf) with the stock Dandong movement 4802 - perfect lubed and buttery smooth.

I asked the dealers about 126509 and they said they are getting some with SA and and some with DD. I had read in another forum that Clean stopped using SA and switched over to DD sometime before CNY.

So I'm thinking all the newly produced CF 126 models would have DD mvts but some old stock would still be left be over.
