Did Clean recently update the crystal on this? I've seen people mention it, but not sure if true since the reply above me stats the crystal looks a tad washed. I'm on the verge of ordering a VSF, but I'm seeing issues with some SEL gaps with VSF YM's, so I'm starting to wonder if I should just go for a Clean.

I'm new to all this, but what I can tell you is that idk how it's possible for a crystal to get any clearer than my CF. Maybe because my experience with them is limited, but sometimes it's hard to tell it even has one in it (it looks like you're literally going to touch the hands, dial, etc because there's nothing on top protecting them, not sure if that makes sense but look at my pics earlier in this thread). If the cyclops wasn't there, sometimes I wouldn't think it had a crystal.

The myth of "Clean crystal is bad" is a replica myth carried on from the old GMT masters and Daytonas..... the new ones are fine. They're not AS good as VSF black hole effect but it isn't bad by any stretch....
I’m happier now with my clean. I think the yellow lighting in my apartment was just bad.
Here are some updated pictures in natural sunlight and overhead white lighting
That said, I think I’ll be moving on from the grey dial so that I can try out the blue one. This one is a little too understated for my tastes!
