Review Clean Pepsi with Dandong 3285, lots of pics

[guru]

When I received the watch I thought, Chazingtime Time sent me another Gen. The watch and the service from Chazing Time is outstanding.Ordered on April 9th, received QC on April 11th. The watch arrived on the 25th of April. 16 days from my order and then it was on my wrist.When I got it I wound it up and let it sit on my table to check the power reserve for this review.The watch stopped 74.5 h later. The feel of the watch is like gen. There are no sharp edges on the Jubilee or on the watch.Winding it up is very smooth. There is no noise from the movement when you shake your wrist.The rotor is very quiet.The rehaut looks like it is more polished then other reps I have seen, it looks good.I believe the curvature of the case is really good, better then other cases I have seen. Important for me is the bezel click and I must say, this is very good. It clicks in without any Play.I like the colors of the bezel, very close to gen. I would say it is MK3. The date wheel is fine and the 2.5 magnification is very good. No reflections. The hands have a very good finish, no scratches and are very good polished. The crystal has NO AR and in my opinion is 2/10th of a mm too high.This could be addressed with another gasket. The jubilee feels good, no öl bath needed. When I sized the jubilee I found 2 screws which had Loc Tide on and it was difficult to get them out, but no real problem. The printing on the dial is fine, no issues for me. I will send the watch to Domi to replace the balance wheel with a gen.The gen part will fit.Domi has already changed the balance wheel on a VS3235 which is the base for the DD3285.

Overall, this is a great looking watch, a real superclone. No need to buy a gen. Thanks again to Chazing Time and his team, great job.

I feel like this and the 116500 daytona with the white dial are hard to beat. In my opinion my favorite Rolex's out right now.

Thank you for the very informative review and great pics. I have just received a cheap Seiko 5 I purchased from India, Only £73 but what a pile of Sh**e. I should have saved my money and put it towards one of these bad boys!

Nice review bro and your pics are superb. My only (very minor) disappointment is the hands look like a different batch from the 3186 version. The hands borders are too wide leaving the lume plots too small. You can see this easily next to your ARF Batman (best hands ever!), and in the other pic below next to a gen.

Certainly not a dealbreaker but I did notice it right away. It won't keep me from getting one but I'll probably change the hands on mine. Shouldn't be an issue for most folks.

Will my gen dw from 3186 fit this 3285?

 

[KJ2020]

Will my gen dw from 3186 fit this 3285?

No bro, the 3285 (gen and DD rep) movement uses the 3235 DW, same one as the Sub 41. The teeth are at bottom number. On the 31xx DW the teeth are at mid number.

Yes, ARF hands from the GMT are the best rep hands I have seen. 3 D effect

Thanks bro, but just to confirm, 3186 gen hands will fit the 3285 right?

 

[derjenigewelcher]

Really happy to hear that they achieved genlike bezelclick on these models. now we got here what we had back in the days with the Noob Daytona - e superrep revolution. Thanks.

Yes 31xx and 32xx hands are interchangeable

Adding here that there is nothing wrong with the dial print

It does look a bit flaky on some pics so thanks for that

I ordered mine from pure time almost a month ago and haven’t even gotten qc pictures. Is everyone experiencing the same issue or it’s just me ?
