GMF Batman vs Gen Batman

[GioBar]

Thank you very much for your advice.

Just got a GMF Batman from my China based supplier. Chose Oyster bracelet with 2836 movement.

Lovely watch, though for the money it cost you would think they could get the cyclops straight. Forget about transition of colors on the bezel , hand stacks, and other details where you'd need to look at the watch close up to notice. the misaligned cyclops stands out like the proverbial and even non watch aficionados notice

Mine is fine. Anyway, what bugs me is the lack of AR on the cyclops. Prolly will get a prof xtal for it in due time Gen xtal are too pricey for my liking.

My GMTs bezel has about 1mm of upwards play in it when you lift under the bezel edge with a fingernail. If you look at the watch side on when you do it you can see it lift. It means the watch rattles a bit when you move it around or tap the top of the bezel. Is the only way to fix that to disassemble and reduce the bezel part's diameter?

I’m between the new GMF Batman and the ZZF no date sub v2 for my everyday beater. Which would you guys pick?

Awesome question. I'd go for the GMF Batman.

Batman. Look at the Hole from the Hands. I had 2 ZZF NoDate and both have it.

Wow 2 for 2 votes for GMF Batman out of the gate, not what I expected

 

[RiffRalf]

Another vote for the batman. Subs are boring

I have the GMF and really love it, I get compliments asll the time and even had a guy from dubai offer to buy it on the spot for 20K US, but the hand stack is killing me. Has anyone done a successful movement swap? I see GMF now has a new version with CHS, not sure if its plug and play.

here is a wrist shot:

Are your no-date subs V1 or V2? I jsut ordered a hulk V2s as was thinking about picking up the no-date ZZF V2 after reading the thread below. The new V2 looks pretty good, if you go to page 12 a guy just posted some wrist shots.

I guess you had both No Dates from the same series of production, I heard some had very deep and wide indentation but not all V1s have it.
The pinion hole indentation on my ZZF V1 is barely noticeable.

Hi Guys,

Looking for some advice on a QC pic on a GMF Batman. The first post on this thread shows the bezel blue/black speed bump transition to take place after the 8 (from the 18) has started. I received a QC picture today with the transition as a straigh tline before the 8 has started, with some black bezel showing between the end of the blue and the 8. This looks wrong to me, and unlike other GMF bezels I have seen. Grateful for your thoughts. I am minded to refuse it. Justified or being too fussy?




Cheers ZD82

Went back to TD and raised concerns. He agreed the bezel was off, and said will try to get a better one.

I don't get it - what is so hard about designing the correct "1"?
