intime posted a V2 updated the super clone 4132 movement, but having a hard time figuring out how to determine whether I have V2.

Yours has outwards-facing beat and regulator arms, so it’s a V2 if I’ve understood this correctly:

Wow, great catch. Thanks! I definitely have V2 then, but what does V2 offer over the V1? Is this a SH or DD movement?

its not a functional modifcation, just decor intial phase to imitate the gen lookalike at a later stage.
Still an SH mvm (not bad btw, but definitely not a DD)

My theory is that Clean ignoring any development on tungsten build will release their version with a great dial and a new/corresponding DD mvm to get back the 126/Lemans selling advantage

I believe the same. My TD said CF is working on the mvm to release the watch +/- at the end of the Y.

Some sites claiming it now has a 70+ power reserve versus the 40 hour on V1. I'm curious how you know it's a SH movement versus DD.

Well that's because the V1 was using a butchered SL-4801/SL-4802 that only has around 50 hours power reserve.

The generation 2 of this watch uses SH.

And I suggest you take a deep read of this :

Are you saying this is a DD movement? See, this is what I'm saying. My QC pics look more like a DD movement than SH.
where did you read out this from my answer? pointed out how the rotor screw should look alike, yours is 3 small ones=SH, plus the news value of releasing a DD4132 and overall price altogether. If this were a DD the rep community should have already been informed about

Yes, I think the same... and we have to keep in mind that the tungsten version has some issues with finishing colors and above all it doesn't add the same weight as gen... but only few grams more than SS... so fingers crossed for Clean new releases !

That's why I pulled the trigger for the ss version and meanwhile waiting for an improved version by QF, CF or other factories.

Even the added weight and the nice hue gives the big brother a very luxury feeling so my choice would be definitely the same again
I understand your point. However, due to my small wrists I'd need to remove many links which would significantly decrease the gain weight of this watch and regarding the metal color hues I prefer the warmer tone to the colder.

The bracelet feels nothing like Gen gold weight and wear wise.
The head feels weighted nicely so it's worth it for just that.

Can't wait (weight ;)) to see the difference of my Le Mans Daytona once it's plated (bracelet / case / rotor). Gen crystal will shortly follow. One of my favorite watches and I'm not even a Daytona fan.
