@Storm. So the conclusion would be: โ€œNo matter how you cut it, you have to float on that Mโ€
๐Ÿ˜‚ ๐Ÿ˜‚ ๐Ÿ˜‚ ๐Ÿ˜‚
Bro that's a whole different thing. I started seeing the m float off my dial and around the room.

Had me looking at my gen like bruh. Wempe sold me a rep ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

Why you think BTF is better than CF v3?
CF reps feel โ€˜reppyโ€™. They just feel cheaper and less weโ€™ll made than VSF / BTF. Itโ€™s a combination of tiny things, but they add up to something quite tangible when you have one in hand.

So the miniature of tiny detail that folks like to dwell on here becomes quite insignificant when in real life the CF feels like it was thrown together by a child.

sorry who are?
BTF have the edge on finishing, handling and build quality overall. it's a shame that their dials lack the 'edge' that clean have. one thing BTF shines in their dials is the coronet, much more 3d and better shape.

Oooohhh...finally someone said it. This is what emerges clearly when you have it in hand.

I agree with the points made by @Storm. CF pushers are wabbly. I think the bracelets on the BT are finished better as well.
This aint true about bracelet
I had cf bracelet which was better finished on the edges than my BTF bracelet what i have at the momentโ€ฆ i took btf over CF because sel fitment was better for my caseโ€ฆ but cf was superior in terms of finish definetly

I think it ultimately boils down to โ€œpersonal preferenceโ€ as stated before. What flaws stand out to you and what you can live with. I will say however, when making my initial decisions,
I always ask trusted TDโ€™S first, for their opinions. The vast majority love the Clean Daytonas. By vast majority I mean 90% plus. Take that as you may.

Argee to that as i also heard it. However i have the feeling that they somehow try to sell it and push it. Dont know why. Maybe different conditions or whatever.
Beside being wabbly they are not gen like. Thread also not. A swap with gen pushers it not easily possible. Yes if course you can change the holes and the thread, but then again if you go this way you can change anything to the case.

I thought the same thing at first too. I thought they had some agenda and were pushing the Clean Factory. Or that they maybe got the Clean watches cheaper and made more profit. But every time I ordered, they had all of the factories reps available. I even told one of the TDโ€™s that I was willing to pay the 1k plus asking price for the Noob. He said he thought the Clean was a better choice.

I'm always skeptical when a sales rep (in this case a TD) "suggests" a particular model or manufacturer. I decide based on my own fact gathering and research. These boards and others have a plethora of information. Use it to your advantage and make a decision. In the end, I think the differences are minor. It's all about what faults you can live with.

This could be batch variations too, or my personal preference. Both of my BT bracelets are finished better and feel smoother than the CF that I have had. Of course, I only notice this while fingering the bracelets though.
