Just saw a few updates from some TDs and local Chinese dealers that the 126600 43mm sea dweller will now house the legendary dandong 3235 movement , amazing news for those who wanting to franken !

Will preorder this!

Yep. Looking forward to seeing the images and video on the TD site... And perhaps some legendary @YellowFin macro shots in the not-too-distant future.

Will buy. Haven’t ordered a Sea Dweller since 2018, and my ARF is showing its age.

just saw the email from Trusty. Definitely interested. Been meaning to get one for a while.

Question from a noob: why is this movement so famous and why to modders?

Probably since it's a 1:1 and can take genuine parts. Some prefer the VR or VS though since there isn't the biggest selection of 3235 parts available should your VS movement crap out.

And also the nearly 70h power reserve and its stability.

What would be the easiest way to make sure I don't miss a TD offering this up for pre-sales / release?

This is awesome news. As much as I liked my XF, I got it a wrong time so I wasn't able to enjoy it. Maybe this time around...

I was hoping someone had a more efficient technique than what I currently employ

I wonder if they'll improve the dial on this version. The XF is too black and not gradient enough in sunlight.

It would be great if they improve the cyclops, too!

NWBIG if those things are done and nothing else is undone in the process.

Some photos of the actual product , no movement shot just yet .

 

[SS72]

Thanks for sharing these pics mate. Same serial number series, which makes sense. I can't really see any other difference, but obviously the hands will be different and the dial modified to fit the 3235 movement. Cyclops appears to be the same. So the main benefit is the movement and option to drop a gen dial, hands and DW straight on.

Any other photos ,did they change I for 1 ?

I have an XF but don't see a point in upgrade if you don't care for clone movements. That and the SELs here in these pictures look like dog poop compared to the XF. Hopefully those get better with time.

1. Winding is much, much smoother on the VS Clone Movement. (Manual feeling)
2. No other Point

The XF is great.

Regarding the SELs: Seadweller does have SELs like this, not fitting, they are higher than on the Sub AFAIK.
