New ORF SMPc 300m A8800 released today

[garnier]

To regutale this movement...(2836?) is the tab for accuracy regulation accesible without removing the decorated part on the movement?

 

[Replisimio]

Its ORF?

Yes bud, it’s the ORF thread

I was almost set on blue, but that black is stunning. Wow. Now I’m leaning that way.

 

[Replisimio]

I think I would go black overall but I do like the blue shade on ORF lol.
Only thing I don’t like on the ORF is the bezel scallops being more shallow than both gen and VSF so I’ve swapped a VSF bezel onto mine. Great watch overall though and there will always be something that is off

I also like the ORF blue. Yes it’s not as vibrant as VSF but it still looks great to me.

What I’m really hoping for is an Olympic rep with the white dial and blue bezel.

Andrew told me today it is available but waiting for pricing from factory, hopefully by the weekend. He didn’t say anything about ORF themselves though even though I asked.

I thought you didn't deal with Andrew?

Vsf do not use a clone 8800, it doesn’t exist buddy. They only cloned the 8500 if I’m not mistaken. It is just deco plates and I’m guessing the Original factory(ORF) example will actually be a 2824 like the vsf and not a 2836.

You're absolutely right, but even the cloned 8500 (obviously) does not have the co-axial escapement replicated.

 

[GeorgianCrusader.885CE]

They do, the last gen PO's from VSF have the clone 8900 movement (which is basically the 8800). I'm sure it has no added features versus the clone 8500 but still.

My friend the 8900 'clone' from PO and the later model AT was actually just the earlier 8500 clone with a different engraving for the movement name

I don’t but he was the only one at the time listing it!

I was waiting for this Omega from ORF. The gray dial is amazing. I think it's time to pull the trigger - as soon as andrew sets the price.

I didn’t buy from him bud. I got mine from jtime. Just used him for info lol.

Great news! I'm waiting for my QCs too, when did you order? (just for info, i'm in no hurry, just upgraded my order for another watch, so i'll have to wait a little while longer anyway)
