SOH II from GF is out!!

[Seamusflood]

Received mine the other day and it’s a very nice piece with a lovely strap.
The tells are the slightly noisy motor, the blue used it a touch lighter than the gen and the logo on the clasp is not very deep and slight off in shape.
On the wrist 99% of people would not tell. A mate even said the sweep was perfect and he loved my gen watch!

Any thoughts on the Perfect Clones 46mm? I'd really like the bigger size, but don't want to sacrifice quality to get it. Thanks in advance.

Its not GF as they haven't made one and doesnt look like they have any plans to do so. This isn't a great rep if you want accuracy, just compare the DW area with gen, and the mesh bracelet is crap. Also no evidence of sunburst on the dial which looks like a flat blue.

And didn't someone post that a TD spoke to the boss at GF and the boss said they had no plans for a 46?

Yes they did...not GF as much as we want a 46mm!

Seems freaking ridonkulous not to do a killer 46 when the punters clearly want one.

We can still hope for a good mesh

Thanks for these and the video M, does look good. I sensed a slight purple hue in the rep in some of the angles, or am i seeing something that isn't really there? Also the gen xtal looks a fair bit better, which it should be, but again this maybe more about the video.

Damn, a colleague of mine told me the same thing, and I have recently noticed that shade of purple. It's really starting to bother me to an extent that might stop me from selling my gen SOH

On the other hands, I have some good pics to convince me that the rep is -almost- as good-looking

Hard to decide!

Last but not least, I would say that even though this GF SOH2 does not look cheap at all, it sounds cheap as f.. because of the miyota rotor and that is a big shame

I had very high expectations in terms of AR and I can garantee that I am not disappointed on that aspect

Hey guys,

really nice watches! Congratz!

I ordered mine in black and thinking about getting new QC pictures.

The one from my QC pictures runs 11 seconds! too fast with 275.

Because of that noisy rotor, I'm not sure, if I should still take it or let them show another one.

Would you take it? How much faster or slower are your watches? 11 seconds sounds a lot to me.

How noisy is it? Would you hear the rotor while sitting next to someone on a table?

Any replies are welcome!

Miyota advertises the movement as being -10 to +30 seconds per day accurate.

I only care about amplitude, and 275 is fine. Watches are easy to regulate, just take it unless you find some major cosmetic flaw.

Is everyone sure that when one of these rep factories advertises 9015 that the movement is actually a real Citizen/Miyota 9015 and not, like, a replica of one?

Miyota movements cost less than 100$ a piece new. It wouldn't be economically rational to replicate these..

So if it is an actual miyota I've read you can just use the manual wind, but earlier comments advised against this...any experts advice?

I solved the problem of the strap being too big by buying one off the web for a deployant (Trusty sold me the clasp). Even though it's not the right size, I think it looks better than before. Pics:

I paid 70 bucks for it, but it is not the quality like the ones Lucy is selling, just so you know.

Miyota 9015 is a very reliable movement and of course you can manual wind it. There is a lot of belief that manual winding should be avoided which is false. Of course you shouldn't be winding the watch for 10 minutes straight but winding it manually for 20-30 turns won't harm the movement. This is usually a discussion on Gen forums started by people shitting their pants having purchased an expensive watch.
