Explorer I -124270 Gen & Clean Comprehensive Comparison

[jtks]

cf is almost perfect...vsf needs to improve:
gen like crown (not from DJ like CF)
movement with 72h power reserve (it's already confirmed)

clean got the lug shape wrong. hopefully vsf will improve on that

Not an expert on that matter. However, plenty of photos are already available on Reddit, and many users say day that the lugs are incorrect as well (it would have been a surprise, if they got them right, since they are also wrong on other VSF 12xxxx models including the new Daytona and the high demand Subs).

From the qc photos, VSF seems to be using their OP case. Their OP case isn't exactly like gen but definitely closer to gen than CF explorer.

I just don't understand why clean wouldn't just put on their OP case which would be much closer to gen explorer. Maybe they wanna do it as V2 to make more money. If VSF can get closer to gen on the lug shape, I'll be ditching my CF explorer for VSF.

For me the 19 mm lug width is a most, because it has a very prominent impact on wrist presence.

Thank you Steve. Very nice and detailed review!

when's the Explorer 40 getting repped?

So much opinions here

I dont know why people saying VS's case shape is better than Clean in this case. It is way worse than Clean's..... come on just look at the lugs meeting the case.... and the 20mm lug width... bunch of BS... they took their OP case and put an Explorer dial on it.

And the OP case is not the same as the Explorer I case.... we can fight on this as well....

Clean is 90% of the way there and if you want to fight on this just look at the thread. Can you tell? Probably not.

Got the VSF yesterday. VSF has more flaws and feels like an OP on hand. The bracelet with 20mm SEL tapers down to 18mm clasp is a big NO for me.
Clean only got the lugs too skinny and using DJ crown. The rest are all fine.

Only worthy thing is the movement. The rest this is a mid tier rep even worse than BP's 36mm....

Ha, that sounds wonderful. I'd rather have an older 14270. Now I just need one to show up in M2M

Apparently there is two movement they offering from clean, 3132 and 3230. Which one is better?

 

[Therion666]

Just in today, the 39mm Clean. My last one was the JF and this one feels just as nice.

I thought this thread is for the 36mm 124270

 

[Got20Mate]

Yeah but sometimes you've just gotta flex the 39mm

 

[Therion666]

And you were right. I'm a dumbfuck for posting in a wrong thread. I hope you'll recover from this traumatic experience soon and find a place in your heart to forgive me for this disgusting act.

Now I'm off to flex it in the IWC section and in the AP section later in the day. Every place needs a village idiot, doesn't it?

Where's the 40mm 224270 thread?

 

[Reaps]

Where's the 40mm 224270 thread?

No good reps of that yet other than a factory from JVS.

Also the 39mm and 40mm are practically the same per gen comparisons.

For years I hated the modern explorers, looked at them with disgust. The 3-6-9 font bothered me. But now all of the sudden i kinda want one! Just not in that pu$$y 36mm!

Hehe stirrin' up your pot, hehe baby wrists Hehe! Hehe!
