First Order with Puretimewatch: GMT Master II 126720 VTNR 904L SS Clean Factory 1:1 Best Edition on Jubilee Bracelet DD3285 CHS

[asusundevils1971]

There could be different stickers in release batches

The first sticker that just says Clean is / was used for the GMT watches and when the new DD3285 came out the factory used what they had in stock. The new second sticker that has 3285 are specific to the GMT. As for the sticker on the back it can change on different watches and is nothing to worry about.

sundevil - ( because you have Tag Heuer as your profile pic). not for nothing , but I too am fond of Tag heuers as well. My wife just gave me for our anniversary - the new 41 mm carrera calibre day/date with the silver sun ray brushed face and leather strap. Great office watch - simple and stylish

A classic design that can be worn for any occasion. My first Heuer a 980.014 was a graduation gift in 84 ( grade 8) and it is still going strong.

orange or black face on the 980.014 - either way NICE

Rock on fellow 80’s high school brother -

Black dial and the Heuer case is thicker then the TAG version.

Excellent-thank you for that.

i remember how thick they were. I think I had the citizen or bulova version in grade school. I guess my Dad thought that the thicker watch - the harder it would be for me to break. Looking back, he was right.
glad for you that you still have it. Lost mine by college.

We’re all can get a little paranoid about our watches. Fair question though.

The QC on my GMT Pepsi - received on 7/9 (ordered and paid on 7/4) have the walrus CLEAN sticker (just like the second pic you submitted). It’s currently with Ctime modder. I paid a lot for the watch plus a bunch more for the extra services…. I really hope this isn’t a counterfeit of a counterfeit (now look at what you put into to head )
That would make anyone sad.

fair question though

Hi: what extra services did you request? For a GMT-Master II 126720 "Sprite" with Dandong 3285 movement, Ctime offered waterproofing to 2 bars, and "fix pinion cap". They weren't able to fix loose play in bezel. I didn't ask about replacing the crystal, dust removal, deburr bracelet, improve face/hands/date wheel, etc. I'm about to pull the trigger. Thanks!

Ask them to turn it into a Gen

For my Pepsi - I ordered the waterproofing , fix pinion cap, crystal, and switching out the face from black to a blue face + a rubber strap with the Rolex clasp. I truly went all out.

didn’t know that they offered maintenance/ dust removal. On the bezel issue - the watch is already on a waitlist with one of the outstanding watch-smiths from this forum.

have fun with your sprite

Should I be worried, you think?

We know the Dandong 3285 movement is offered in limited quantity, the V2 3285 GMT-Master II from Clean has always been in short in supply and there is a rumor about that some dealers are selling “fake Dandong 3285 GMT-Master's" (I know this is kind of funny...).

There is nothing to worry about It's real product from clean. Stickers could be different for different batches or models.

Thanks, I'm also interested in a Prof XTAL (if available) and hoping he can do some other services. I'm wanting a Sprite that I'll be proud to wear for a few years.

Here we go, some extra charges by the post, but that's fine...

It took some time, but I want to note that with the seller's communication, support and efforts, my process has proceeded quite healthily and with confidence.

Let me thank you for your kind support and for this great timepiece.
