QF Le Mans Daytona 126529（White-Eyed Wolf）High Definition Photos

No idea? What’s the difference v8/9? Didn’t know they had 9 versions of this watch??

V8 not heavy, v9 heavy

Really there's only 4-5 versions but they count the tungsten and non tungsten

No idea if I have heavy or not. Just bought it in Bangkok MBK center from my dealer. But I like it

170g is heavy 140g is not heavy

 

[domiffm]

170g is heavy 140g is not heavy

So no real difference

So no real difference

Right, and when sized down to a smaller wrist it's more like 137g/162g so 25g difference. Much smaller difference than the 60g gap between a tungsten DD40 and a DJ41.

All your pics led me to pull the trigger on the same non-heavy steel QF as yours. I like the steel metal tone over the white-blueish tone of the new weight gain plated model.

Will swap the bezel, movement/dial, and caseback into a Clean 126509 case to preserve the "Au750" stamp. That eliminates all the QF case issues with the long pushers and poor bracelet/clasp, and eliminates the Clean issues with the dial and bezel.

Agreed.

The weight gains are obviously more like the weight of the original but I much prefer wearing a lighter watch which is why I am so heavily into vintage and also thin Nautilus models on the modern side. The older I get the more I like not overtly feeling I am wearing a hefty chunk of metal, albeit it might come in handy in a fight. The fact I can get a SS Le Mans is very appealing and since I don’t need anyone to think the watch is original it’s a win win for me! I would also have doubts about long term wear on tungsten coated watches, not sure how they would cope with a decent “ding” either and certainly wouldn’t want to pay 20% more for the pleasure. Each to theor own though

SS looks closer to WG gen anyway. The heavy plated one has a white/blue tone that looks more like platinum.

Besides the 24 hour movement working in the QF V9 Tungsten, are there other improvements from the first iteration of the QF Tungsten Le Mans? Like is the clasp not as flimsy? Dial/crystal improvement?

I purchased the QF V9 based on the posts in this thread. Due to the strict customs inspections in my country and the fact that it took more than a month and a half to arrive, I was very worried, but it has finally arrived.

I have a question regarding the 24-hour totalizer in the image. If the watch is running, will the hand move slightly every hour, and after six hours, will it align with the 6?

I am a complete beginner when it comes to watches, and this is my first time with a 4132, so I would like to understand how it works.

I’m not sure if this is relevant, but when the watch arrived, the push buttons A and B were not screwed in, so I tightened them. The image was taken right after I set the time.

I apologize for the very basic question, but I would appreciate it if you could help me understand.

Yes

Yes

Thank you very much for your prompt response.

I have worn the watch for an hour, but the hand on the 24-hour totalizer is still pointing at 24 (the 12 o’clock position). Does this indicate an issue?

If it is not functioning properly, I will need to inform the seller, so I would appreciate your opinion on this matter.

You need to activate the chronograph brother. The 24hr subdial represents how long / hours the chronograph is running. It won't run without the chronograph runninv.

I see. Thank you for the advice!

Hello everyone!


I'm new to this hobby and just ordered my first watch. The seller told me that I got the QF Le Mans V10. I've heard that the V10 is the latest version, not the V9 can anyone confirm? Looking forward to learning more from you all!

Haven’t seen anything but v8 standard weight and v9 tungsten heavy weight… very curious as to what dealer is referring to

It's already in transit, so I can't check what changes were made. But I’m wondering, did the seller mention V10 just to charge more, or is there actually a V10 version available yet?

 

[aHero]

Who did you buy from?

 

[bcwatcher]

QF did release V10's however all I've seen are OF models....
