But this is not the same Dial, isn't this a DJ2 Dial?

Looks awesome nevertheless though. Actually prefer this over the Wimbeldon.

He wanted to show his gen off :p haha (I'm kidding, I also have a DJ II. Personally think it's strange that it was so poorly received. But then again, I have chonky 8" wrists...)

Yes but. the fact remains that they are two different watches, with two. different dials and different roman numerals .. lol

So can anyone 100% confirm this release will take a gen DJ 41 126xxx dial? It may or may not be a downgrade from VSF but at least it’s obtainable lol IMO

IDK of anyone here who actually has one of these in hand yet bro. But looking at pics of the movement and the dial backside, my money is on a gen dial fitting 1:1.

A gen dial fits on a VS3235, and the VR3235 has the same gen-spec 3235 date indicator seating with flanges to anchor the dial.

The blue looks a lot deeper than the ARF I had.

Can someone please share more pics of the Wimbledon dial approved qc or on hand, thanks!

Nice pics! How's the bracelet, clasp and winding feel?

I would say it's exactly the same as ARF on the bracelet and clasp with a bit of noise when moving the bracelet around unworn. Not a big issue for me.

As for winding. Its my first time having this movement. Only ever had 2824s before and I do not notice much of a difference. Will update you on how it keeps time in a day or two.

The date looks pretty close to gen to me, an improvment on ARF for sure. No?

Update: I am new to this movement. I am not sure if I am winding it correctly but the movement keeps stopping.
I am winding it the same way I do for a 2824 but you will not notice the distinct sound or "feel" of the wind. Feels like its not winding at all?
I tried activating the rotor by mildly shaking it multiple times, will make it work for sometime but eventually stop again.
This could be an isolated problem but I feel i must share.
