New Order of Datejust 36 mm ARF

[JaWi]

Today I placed a new order for Datejust 36 mm ARF with jubilee bracelet. Fist checked the availability which was confirmed. Order processing without any problems.

Any updates?

I ordered an ARF Milgauss the same time as you and still haven't received QC.

I asked him and he answered immediately that this time it is little bit more difficult because that part of China is in lockdown => the deliveries are delayed. But I am patient because I read some posts here and it is the same for almost everybody (only the stock watches are being delivered quite soon).

I've heard there are issues with the ARF factory. I had to get a different movement in the watch because apparently the clone movement isn't available.
My order with Puretime was shipped, but still waiting for QC from Trusty. I'm sure he'll get it eventually since I've ordered from him before.

Today I received the QC pictures:

I think it is the best choice, more beautiful than the 41mm. A question, what machinery does it have? the eta or the clone?

It has: [FONT=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]Platinum Plated Asia Clone 3135 Automatic movement, 28800bph with Decorated bridges/plates & rotor[/FONT] I bought it here: https://trustytimewatch.io/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1_12&products_id=20724. For my wrist the maximum is 40 mm and 36 is the deal !! As soon as I get it, I will post pictures as usually.

Received my QC as well for ARF Milgauss. Took about a month.

2824 movement ? Ive also just ordered the Z Blue Milgaus from J Time so looking forward to seeing other peoples examples for quality on the ARF Milgaus offered. Clone movement is not being fitted by ARF on these units - issues with supply / quality or some such issue. I just hope that the rejected clone ARF units arent being used here with retrofitted A2824 movements and then offered back up to TD for sale again ???
Anyways - post up your QC pics of the ARF milgaus when you are allowed to - look forward to seeing them as mine will still be a while away......

Friday I received the watch! Beautiful piece. Delivery time in these days long but if you have patience, you will get what you ordered ;o)

Looks great!
I'm still waiting on the Milgauss, so your shipping was actually faster than mine. Hope I get it this week.

 

[JaWi]

Yes. That is possible. Sometimes in some countries the shipping is faster ...
