Thanks KJ! Yea I never worry about the serials, I didn't even bother to look!
but for your information, the UBF does indeed use the clone 2824 movement and not the 2836 as stated on the website

Is rejecting a watch cause of a misaligned rehaut a dick move? Everything seems to be okay but the rehaut is fucked

I just RL because this problem too. My ZF hulk was amazing, only the misaligned rehaut was the problem. Now I wait for the new QC. In my opinion it’s something that will make me crazy to see this every day.

Which was better just for knowledge
Thanks in advanced brotha!
JF and ARF are partner factories, ARF took over the Rolexes JF was making when 904L was introduced. There isn't a huge difference between the two otherwise. ARF was for a long time very highly regarded, lately they have have had some less than stellar releases like the 16610. Also they are behind the times on hour markers, stubbornly sticking to sharp square corners.
For members that have the ARF OP39 white dial. Is the"Rolex" font on the dial thinner than gen? And does the dial have special texture that gen has (it makes the dial changes colour from cream white to silverish depending on the light)?

Hi guys, looking to buy my first ever rep. Thinking of going for the black dial OP39 by ARF. Is the SH3132 movement good? Or should I go for a BP factory ETA movement?
I will be buying from Ali express.

The only problem with rolex reps is the rehaut, as nice as the rep is, the rehaut will annoy me and an instant tell, I don't understand why its so hard to align the rehaut on any Rolex rep.
while the OP 39mm Grape and Gray dial is NWBIG but because of rehaut its worth every cent buying Gen haha.

Well, i don't think it's hard. I even think it's easy enough to do it by yourself.
I need to change hands on mine, i'll give it a try

Pretty excited for this one to arrive. Sead has outdone himself again...
I’ve found myself wearing my rhodium OP39 a lot whilst waiting for some decent reps of the updated op41 drop. This grape will keep me happy til they do.
That sample looks nice for sure. I wrestled between that one and the Rhodium and went with the safe choice. I was afraid grape wasn't going to agree with me but now I'm not sure again, haha.

Yeah, I was still a bit on the fence about the grape right up until the QC I received! Zero regrets now. I wear quite a bit of burgundy/pinks so I think it’ll agree with me lol
