Rolex Air-King 126900 Gen VS. Clean [picture comparison]

[Verus]

Have any of the owners compared their GMF with a gen in the store or from a friend?

 

[Verus]

What are the experiences with Cleans 3230 movements? How long can they last? Do they need initial service after purchase?

I recently sold a GMF on here. Stunning watch. Beautiful finish.

 

[Verus]

Reto, thanks! What is your opinion about rehaut and bracelet quality? Did you compare watch details with gen photos from internet?

 

[Reto]

Rehaut is very good. I couldn’t tell the difference from gen. The bracelet is very good as well, it could use an oil bath like all reps. Release mechanism and locking clasp was top notch

 

[Verus]

Thanks Reto!!!

Thank you, CTime. I have already admired Clean's precision work on my new Yachtmaster.

Dear members, after long comparison and comunication with one of owners, I am very close to buying GMF. Only one question please, do you think that yellow color of crown on dial is lighter on GMF (and Clean too?) than on gen? Actually, what is your opinion about green and yellow font, shape, 3d presence and shade of colors on GMF and Clean?
Sorry if my English is too bad!

This comparison is really nice. The only thing i would think that looks really different is the overall case/bracelet of gen is lightly yellow in color, while clean is more silver-ish. But nevertheless, a very good copy!

I wonder how the new released VSF Airking compare to clean ones, a clean v vsf v gen comparison would be superb

That is mainly a issue you can easy solve with doing a gen spec brushing IMO.
