Sorry to be off topic on this ZF thread but I just bought this RMF ☹️. Will I have problems or what do you think is not so good about it?
Its just the old movement, i guess its fine if it was cheap but it isn’t a clone, just modified miyota. It’s reliable and you wont have problems with it, just the accuracy compared to gen

You can compare the one you bought with one of the new clones and gens, you will see pretty easily what’s different, especially the dimensions and some gears

Yes I noticed some differences at the back side compared to the ZF, just thought it was cheaper or some such didn't realise it was an older iteration movement. Thank you for your reply 🙂

Probably soon all will use some variation of the superclone. Then it's a matter of time of who will make the incremental improvements first or if someone is going to a "clean" and come out with a far superior version than the rest.

I have seen them for 6-9k

No point, there is a new CNC Clasp out that is exactly the same

I just saw a gen buckle for 1.5k on eBay, but I'm afraid if they are indeed gen?

Another gen one listed for 2k.

How much is a CNC clasp thou? If its the same as above, then better go gen?

I highly doubt that is Gen .

There is a cnc clasp now. Just buy that
