New QF Blue Dial Daytona

[2fast4lust]

Will post the final build when I drop in cf 116520. Might pop in the BTF xtal because I think it’s superior

don't do that! like KJ2020 mentioned the bezel is wrong and on top of that, the case is wrong too!

So what would you drop it in?

If you're not going to go the fantasy route it'd be best to drop it into a WG PM Case from noob as thats the only WG Daytona case you have right now.

Clean hasn't release any in Bracelet and BTF only have them in YG now IIRC... haha

Gosh darn it!!! No sub dial sun bursts. They got so much right. How could they have overlooked such an obvious and visible aspect of the gen.

I look fwd to see the QC photos from early folks who will order it

 

[KruisingKhaos95]

I will be placing my order shortly, I will update the thread once ordered and when QC pics come through!

Anyone get this one yet?

I doubt if it is better than the CF or BTF if they ever made one. Unfortunately no name factories ever make great watches. One good thing is they are using the 4310 clone.

Hey Dogwood,
Could you give a bit more background on what you mean by sub dial sunburst? I’m trying to compare the pictures to a gen and can’t fully understand.

Much appreciated!

So the sub-dials on the gen have their own radial brushed lines. This causes the light to reflect in a little bow tie effect from each sub-dial. On the QF, the sub-dials don’t have this individual radial pattern, but rather have a brushed pattern that follows the same pattern as the main large dial. This means that on the QF, there’s no individual sub-dial bow tie light reflection.

Ahhh. Thanks for the clarification! I was thinking you were talking about the O lines inside of the sundials. Now I see what you mean! Thanks bud!
