GMT Master II 126710blnr (Batman) Gen and clean comparison

[mr.trippin]

Call me crazy, but on the wrist I can't imagine this would have any obvious flaws. I've been eyeing a batman for the next buy...

FONT print looks bad to me..

I agree! Not what I’d expect from CF.

CLEAN lugs have always been a tad thicker than gen. Not everyone will notice this, or care that much. CF CGs shape looks good, maybe a tad skinny. Again, few will care.

FONT print looks bad to me.. any buff or mod dial?

Noticed this too vs. last models.

Le alette CLEAN sono sempre state un po' più spesse delle gen. Non tutti se ne accorgeranno o se ne preoccuperanno così tanto. La forma dei CF CG sembra buona, forse un po' magra. Ancora una volta, a pochi importerà.

Bro CF V1 it's quite a bit thinner instead

They weren't around long bro - you got lucky, haha!

I read that on the clean batman the font on the bezel will turn darker in time. Have they improved this?

Thanks again @steve_theonewatches! Your comparison posts are the best.

I'm sorry guys but on the wrist this is one kick ass replica. I think CF has done a great job. Sure under 20x magnification the differences are easy to see. But not on the wrist.

No bro, I will change case on my franken...I don't like too thin and CG aren't oblique like gen

 

[Mark1937]

For me new CF case is perfect!!! Sel perfect.

It's pretty challenging to get the scale and alignment set exactly in these collages. I think this one is a little better if you zoom in on the outer bracelet edges of each comparison.

The gen lugs have that extra little inward curve cut near the lug ends that make the tips narrower. CF is close though!

Does the GMT hand still wiggle when adjusting the hour hand with the new 3285 movement?

 

[Mark1937]

È piuttosto impegnativo ottenere la scala e l'allineamento impostati esattamente in questi collage. Penso che questo sia un po 'meglio se ingrandisci i bordi esterni del braccialetto di ogni confronto.

Le alette gen hanno quella piccola curva verso l'interno in più tagliata vicino alle estremità delle alette che rende le punte più strette. CF è vicino però!

which case would you choose for my pepsi franken? (The V1 I have has thinner lugs and the straight not oblique CG issue).
I have the gen on my wrist today

No

Wow. That looks amazing. Will all the TDs that source from Clean (I'm guess that's most of them) have these available any time soon?

I think it's lovely. I'll await reports on build quaility (of the bezel assembly) before I buy one. In the meantime, I note the bezel scallops not quite as deep as gen.

Yes. they seem to be more similar to those of 116710 which are less accentuated.

Bro I think you are bothered more by the straight CGs. A good modder could take 0.5mm off the sides of the lugs just at the ends if you really feel the need. I've taken way more than that off to get rid of dings/dents or to decrease chamfers. But really the V2 is close enough.

While I'm not a Batman/Batgirl fan... just wow! That is one impressive rep.

Can’t believe CF make mistakes like this.
Color changing at 6 and 18 is wrong, bezel of 3186 version is even better.
