Have seen basically no posts on the new THB tungsten DD40's so I'll start the thread. I'll let these images speak for themselves. Really nice finishing on the case, bezel, and bracelet, and does not have QF's milky white gasket. Crystal sits just right, unlike the QF which sits too high. Measured thickness is 12.42mm vs QF 12.75mm. 38.8mm bezel and 47.6mm lug-lug.
The weights on the scale are sized to my 6.3" wrist, with the QF having one less link as I was annoyingly in-between link sizes between this and one size up. As DD's don't have micro-adjustment, thankfully I am not in between link sizes on the THB thus the THB links must measure a hair smaller than QF. Each THB link weighs 3.0g vs QF 2.6g, so the THB still weighs 9g more than the QF with A2836.
Unfortunately the THB gold colors are very orange, unless you plate it like @Bullflo3 here (which btw looks amazing). So the only worthwhile models out of the box are this blue ombre and the olive dial in non-gold. The THB ice blue dial is very off too. But IMO this particular one beats the QF blue ombre DD40 hands down.
