Nope, I’ve been watching this one. If you compare it to the ones in the thread you will see the difference.
I’m going to respectfully disagree.

I'm quite certain it is VR3255. But we can wait for more experienced members to comment and confirm.
It is 100% a "New Shanghai" (aka "VR") 3255.

There was another one for awhile, apparently I’m not watching it anymore, and it was certainly the A3155.
Looking at the microadjusters I’m inclined to agree with you now.
Might have to order one and look at it. I don’t want to mess with my DD40 until someone does it before me

Interesting. I don't like that one because the transition or line or whatever is too straight.
I'm told it's Eisenkiesel but doesn't look like the Rolex Eisenkiesel. But I actually prefer it over the Rolex version lol

Of course my follow-up question is what's Eisenkiesel? Google is a great tool: "Eisenkiesel is an iron-oxide, delicately veined quartz"
So it's not a rare stone like the Gibeon meteorite which is fine by me because in the end you can select whichever piece of stone that you like best knowing that it's not sourced from some rare source. Pretty cool looking actually.

This is the one I was referring to. The more veins the better. My opinion anyway. At least if I were selecting stone for a counter top or floor.

This is the Rolex Eisenkiesel dial, which I'm pretty sure what I'm after is nothing like it. But as I mentioned, I'm actually not a big fan of the Rolex version. Whatever my dealer sent me (not sure what it actually is), I like it better! haha

I wish they put the new Vr3255 movement in the new Tungsten watch. It's well annoying. Il wait for this to happen, before pulling the trigger...
Take a look here, I did a short review in the past regarding the "older" GMF version of the Day-Date.oh. now now.
