Well I am realy confused now,I have checked between the lugs and the engraving have 126622 so I don’t think it’s ARF but hope someone can tell me what this is.
It came with ARF COFFIN,braclet wrap with ARF hologram and 7CD clasp code.
This was sold to me as old stock.
But it have the 12XXXX case engraving and the corronet @6 but the 3135 movement.
Anyone know if they are faking also ARF watches now?


All the pictures are how the watch arrived to me so this is stock without the gen bezel.

Hopefully someone can identify the factory of this watch.
That's not an ARF... ARF only made the 116622--as prior mentioned with corona between 'swiss' and 'made' (and though few mention, the 126622 Gen updated dial with larger circular hour indices. ARF has much more vibrant red writing on dial and true-to-Gen blue sunburst dial color (the one you pictured is burple). Here is my ARF Blue dial received in February this year:

Has anyone got their hands on a Clean Factory Yacht Master 42mm 226659 that was recently released?

From what I've been reading in various parts of the internet, it looks to be one of the best reps to be released so far.

Received QC from my TD, it looks like the 12 and 6 indicators are off slightly to the left. Am I crazy?
I had the same issue with a VSF YM42 I got earlier this year.

My clean yacht is the same to you: slightly shift left. I RLed it and the 2nd got the same issue. Maybe something is wrong with this batch from Clean.

Has anyone had any experience with the GDF yachtmaster? How terrible are they really? I realise ARF and clean are better options. But thought if the lower class ones aren’t horrible maybe pick up 2 yachties for the price of one!

Clean's Yachtmaster is way better than ARF's. Even the processing is at a higher level.

Hi guys! I’m new and I’m about to take a YM. I wanna ask you how bad is the noob ones? Because I saw the price are very low. Is it worth to spend more for a Clean one?

You may want to check whether Noobs are still available, given that the factory has been closed for a while

Hi everyone, sorry for the inconvenience, I hope I'm not breaking any rules.

After selling my 116622 franken last year, I regret it, and would like to do it again.

That's why I'm asking here if anyone has for sale or wants to consider selling their 116622 NOOB with 3135.

If anyone has it available, contact me privately.
Thank you ;)
