Ahh ok I see. Lovely model though. I ordered a VSF Yachtmaster master with the grey dial and a month later no qc pics or anything. So now thinking maybe to cancel it and get something else. Or maybe the blue dial vsf Yachtmaster if it’s available.
But thank you for your reply.

Trying it again from google chrome, hopefully works.

Anyhow VSF yachtmaster with a VS3135 movement as the 3235 movement is like a golden egg, hard to source from TDs.

Excuse the crap quality pics but is there any other mods to really bring it out?? Didn’t think to do a xtal swap like I did with my Daytona.

Any advice appreciate.

I'm facing the same dilemma, but I'll stay on the 3235.
If you're in a hurry, you can pick the 3135, the dial doesn't have the crown between swiss and made, but it has no other difference (but the power reserve of course).

Hi guys,

Maybe you can help me on a tiny dilemma I currently face. As some of you may know I placed an order for a YM 1226622 VSF with the 3235 movement. I placed the order back in July but still no joy with getting qc pics etc. The dealer got back to me today and said he has the same watch but with the 3135 movement rather than 3235.
From my reading it seems like the 3235 is the better movement than the 3135. When I asked the dealer, he said only difference between the 2 movements is that the 3235 has up to 70hrs reserve and the 3135 is 40-50hrs.
So is that true and if so, should I get the 3135 movement?? Just want something reliable to be honest.

Thanks for any advice guys.

Folks, how did you solved that? In between the same dilemma (plus still deciding if place my bet on a VSF or CF)

I went with the vsf YM but with the 3135 movement. Have had it a month or so and it’s working perfectly.

Case is the same of 3235 right? Read somewhere that CF case set and bracelet are somehow more true to gen

I would think so, not really sure. From my research I decided on VSF as they are the best YMs out there. Asked my TD and he confirmed the same but sadly the 3235 movement is hard to get hold of. So told me that get the 3135 movement and only difference being the power reserve. The 3235 has up to 70 hrs and 3135 is 40 hrs.
