Hi all, just a quick question. I recently bought a Clean rootbeer with a VR3285 movement. I'm wanting to swap in a DD3285 but am unable to find any on ali express. Plenty of VR' available.

Are these movements exclusive to Clean. Is it possible to buy the movement only?
Yes, right now they’re exclusive to Clean. You might be able to get one through a TD if you ask nicely and the TD has a good relationship with Clean.

Here’s my timegraph of DD3285 QC, amplitude is not great, is this caused by bad mainspring? I’m not a genius on movements but does this mean it has lower power reserve?
I've got the same rate of +9s/d but with an amplitude of 304* and a beat error of 0.2ms on my new GMT2 from new AR+F movement VR3285 72hours. So you got a little sharper movement on your DD3285 "Pepsi" GMT, or which amplitude is better? the one closer to 0* or further away from 0*? I read somewhere that Rolex do not like more than 280° - I think it was because, if you run at higher amplitudes, you get a bigger drop after 24 hours. At 270-280° the idea is that a lower drop over 24 hours gives better timekeeping.

Will there be any comparison dd vs. new vr from @CTime in the future?

Saw some reviews and the accuracy and power reserve is indeed really good 68-72h.
I am more interested in the fabrication of the movement components.
