Compare ARF 116710LN with the VRF 116710LN

Hm? Why should it not work with the module? The module is not the pinion where the hands are on.

By the way, Domi build 2 VRFs (complete Franken) incl the 3185–660, no issues working perfectly.

Yea it seems that VRF might had fixed the issue. I have 3 VRF's here. One is perfect. I had to replace the other ones 660 when I serviced it. The last one needs the 660 installed

Yes, I already edited my post. I forgot to install the pinion hahaha.

occb2 Mate did you know if Noob watches with CHS function (the current 2824 movement with CHS modification), or better, the case of these watches, can fit a VR 3185? My idea would be towards this combination:

- Noob CHS watch
-VR 3185 movement
-Dial stock with feet cutted and glued
-Gen Hands

Could it be feasible without any particular problems?

Thanks

You (or Modder) needs to build a custom movement holder to fit the VR3185 into the Noob case. My GMT franken is the same way

So it's possible do this my only problematic thought was about the height of the steam and the data centering with dial 2824 with the dial itself and with the cyclope of the crystal

 

[srhoque]

it is possible both with the Noob v9 and Noob V10 CHS cases. My watchmaker has done them

Can the ARF hands fit into VR3185 pinion?

The stem height is different. Modders have shown it can be done, but there will be some strain on the stem, and the crown position and CG shape will not be true to gen.

Yes, they're 3185 & 3186 clone, hands are interchangeable.

Is 660 only part that needs to be replaced in the VR movement?

My vr movement is running perfectly since about 2 weeks, was wondering the same but there's no need to replace 660 for me at the moment. Went 3 Times through all dates, no skipping or anything and runs really well at +2s/d ootb

Good to know! How is the overall quality? Is anything better on ARF besides bracelet? I mean IF bracelet is better on ARF at all

I don't have the vr gmt, just bought the movement because the balance on the sh3186 always stopped, tried several things but nothing really worked well. Other than the movement I really like the ARF, everything's good about it. Only plan to gen brush it, that will make it perfect.

2 questions. Where did you get only movement and how you brush the bracelet? (I guess thats what your brushing)

 

[Cadows]

Which one is better for franken? VRF Sub cant take gen bezel. How about GMT?

The VRF GMT can take a gen bezel as long as you use a gen bezel gasket

Thanks bro. Is this super franken?

More or less ;-)

Gen bezel/insert, crystal, dial, DW and jumping hour module.

I'm switching over the GEN parts and the VR3185 to an ARF 116710's case though as I can't stand VRF's sels

Useful infos thanks man. What else is necessary to change in movement besides jumping hour?

Why not just use ARF bracelet?
