Here are pictures sent by my TD. I’m not here to have your opinion if I need to GL or RL but just to show you a overall view of this watch

Td's keep measuring the 3235 at 52 and not 59, hope they understand soon and start changing to the correct angle. Can you ask Eric maybe a closer look to the midlinks!? Just so we know if they plated the watch correctly. Thanks buddy, watch looks awesome.

can you explain me why 59 please ? I’m curious to understand

Indeed.
My yachtmaster uses this movement and was also measured at 52°. I had a reading of 254° of amplitude...

Reading on the timegrapher on the wrong lifting angle will result in a lower amplitude reading when compared to 59 degrees. This is a common mistake among td's and that's why a lot of people are rl'ingwatches with the vs3235.

3235 movements have lower amplitudes than the 3135, in general. Which is fine. 240, 250, 260 is good, 220, 215 205 is not.
I do believe that the low amplitude is connected with the seconds wheel pivot. Maybe someone with more knowledge about movement like KJ2020 can talk more about it.

My QC for 126334 ,ordered two tone as well but I had to RL due to low amplitude ( gen Crystal , dw , flooted bezel awaiting for instal )

What was you time grapher reading ?
Mine is very low.

Caliber 3235 does not have the characteristics of the caliber 3135. The amplitude of the caliber 3235 is less.
Cal. 3235:

Lift angle - 55

Amplitude at full wind -- 260_270 max

The mechanism is checked after 24 hours. The amplitude must not be less than 210. Accuracy on the second day -- -3/+5 s/d.

VS3235 should not be measure at 55 like Gen but at a 59 lifting angle this has been explain in several post on Chinese websites.Reading on the timegrapher on the wrong lifting angle will result in a lower amplitude reading.

3235 movements have lower amplitudes than the 3135, in general.

Thanks for the clarification. I suspected a half wind movement and accepted.

I have a question about the TT model I ordered. I have a gen gold bezel to Franken it. Is the difference of color between the gen bezel and the rep bracelet will be obvious ? and can I "re plate" or "wrap" the mid links of bracelet to match the color of gen bezel ? Thanks

I am very curious about TT models coming from VSF too. Now that we have what seems to be a serious 3235 clone, I have, as a few others here as far as I can read, strong intents to see my next franken being a YG two tones DJ with gen dial/hands/crystal.

Regarding DW, they look quite good so far, not even sure it's even worth going for gen.

Hell, this is exciting!
