ZF or Clean for GMT-Master II?

[topslop1]

Which factory should I go with for GMT-Master II? Is ZF or Clean putting out the better product? I'm not upgrading or playing with crytals, etc; so it'll have to be out of the box.

copy pasta from major williams over at reptime, its a good place to start, ZF isn't even in the discussion, go clean or C+

• GMT Master II
  • PEPSI 126710BLRO, 116710BLRO: C+ Factory, Clean Factory, GMF v6 (get with VR3186 movement if you can)
  • BATMAN/BATGIRL 126710BLNR, 116710BLNR: C+ Factory, Clean, VRF, ARF (best insert, movement might be unstable)
  • 116710LN: C+, Clean, VRF
  • VTNR Sprite: Clean, GF, GMF
  • Rootbeer: Clean, GMF with VR3186
  • DiW models (varying references): DiW Factory (aka VSF)

yes C+F is the same as C+ factory but they are NOT the same as CLEAN factory / CF

Clean is better overal. C+ just have a better xtal that’s all

I own the C+ and the Clean Version of the GMT Master II 116710 LN.
For me the C+ is a little bit better (Dial,Hands,Bezel Action and Insert)….“better“ means you have to look closely.
The Crystal looks almost the same to me.
The Clean is also a very great Rep but when I have to make a decision I will go with the C+…

Does anyone know when the VSF BLRO is coming out? Is that one supposed to be the best?

Is the one that doesn't exist yet the best?

Well that’s why I wrote “supposed to,” because perhaps someone knows based on rumors, early models, etc. idk I’m very new to the rep world. Have a great weekend.
