How does everyone feel about the GMT II from ARM?? Aesthetically I feel like it’s superior to clean but the movement not so much. Has the new “super” movement they are using made up ground on the DD movement?

I feel I like a clean
From which aspect? The look or the movement or all of it? I think Pepsi clean has mastered but my Personal opinion is the hands, bezel and case ARF does better. It’s just that SH movement that concerns me

You've lost your mind noob
Just because I’m new on RWI does not mean I am new to reps my friend. DD movement is much better obviously.. clean does not even use their own bracelet, they use ARFs product. ARF has better crystal as well. Clean has the name recognition everyone wants and they have the superior movement.. what else do they have that’s superior to the ARF?

No, I def do not. I posed a question and asked for feedback. Your feedback was try and call me a noob. Very respectful way to have a conversation. Though I’d still welcome your real genuine feedback if you have any because unlike you I’m not looking to simply run my mouth I’m trying to have a conversation. But seems to be a difficult task. Good day to you sir

ARF… the real ARF closed after the raids. What you’re being offered is another outfit using the ARF name.

And when we say ARF bracelet, it is the bracelet supplier ARF used originally and we just call it that. ARF never made bracelets Or claps.

Apart from the superior DD movement and Clean ‘s consistent QC, no one can match Clean’s extensive research and experience on ceramic inserts.

100% agree with this point.

Once said that, and in addition to the previous post, nowadays Clean V3 has upgraded it crystal, the bezel movement and the insert, 3 of the main weaknesses of the v2. Therefore, I would go clean.

Pretty sure ARF + Clean cases are the same, they share the same serial numbers in a lot of cases. I think the two factories are actually quite similar in terms of most recent GMT 2 releases.

Cleans "IP" if you want to call it that, is the solid ceramic insert (at least for the pepsi model) + the DD movement.

Others certainly know more than me, but that's what I have gathered.

ARF is using Clean's case, and Clean's bezel - they're literally using the same Clean bezel, so I don't know what claim you're making about how ARF's bezel is "better" than Clean's

Clean's "dial" is far superior to ARF's dial, the printing of Clean is top tier and always consistent.

ARF has two advantages - it's cheaper, and some aspects such as the crystal and bezel tooth polishing are better. Like marginally by 10%.

People critique and criticize Clean - they're the ones who pioneered out everything for the GMT line and still hands down have the best GMT.
