ZZF V3 Submariners up on Jtime

[Swedish Cheese]

I gave in to the temptation and put in an order for a 114060 2836 with Li. Here's hoping they'll be as good as the 3130s are!

If you’re in America I’m sure you own a gun. If oil you use on your freedom stick is good. Then it’s good enough for a wrist watch!

I lubed my V6S once! Almost 4 years ago. And not one issue with the band/noise.

if you don’t have gun lube..go buy a freedom stick defend your freedom.
Then lube your watch.

May want to ration that stuff. Going to be hard to come by in about a week.

only a FYI
I took the ZZF V3 HULK on the time and the reslut is minus 12 sek . Movement 3135
Overall , the movement sounds not very precise ...

only a FYI
the same I did with the ZZF V3 No Date . Movement 3130
Movement sounds and feels realy very precise
Minus 0 / 3 / max 5 excellent result !

I don't have a timegrapher so I imagine your know a lot more about it than me, but aren't those results fantastic? A nice, steady line on the screen, 0.0 beat error is perfect, the amplitude is in the excellent range. I don't understand why you think it's bad?

It's within the accuracy window of a genuine ETA top grade. What are you expecting?
Just regulate it if you're unhappy.

you are right , needs to regulate / adjusted .
But ETA is more precision as minus 12 .

 

[muiramas]

But ETA is more precision as minus 12 .

Wrong:

1. STANDARD GRADE: This grade is specified with an average rate of +/-12 seconds per day, with a maximum daily variation of +/-30 seconds.
2. ELABORATED GRADE: This grade is specified with an average of +/-7 seconds per day, with maximum daily variation of +/-20 seconds.
3. TOP GRADE: This grade is specified with an average rate of +/-4 seconds per day, with a maximum daily variation of +/-15 seconds.

That VR just needs some regulation. One thing I noticed when comparing VS3135 to VR3135 is the amplitude is far superior on the VS. Overall I’m impressed with the VS3135 so far - but we need to hear a watchmakers take on it once they service one and can compare all internal parts to the VR. [mention]oascom [/mention] any chance you’ve taken a deep dive into the VS3135 yet?

How do you feel about the crystal? Going to keep or switch it for a gen?

for me it s ok the stock one

 

[stufuse]

Bezel color is very close, with the gen color slightly richer. However, this is only noticeable with a side by side comparison.

As are most flaws, and some cant honestly see those. Only when you ask someone to look for something different, will they then potentially notice something.

Thanks for that!

Does anyone know if this is the same insert/colour as the V2s? Or was that closer in colour?

The v2s has he v3 CF insert, so I’d that hasn’t been updated then yeah will be the same.

I have an old mechanical watch that I found on the street almost 60 years ago ... and it was old when I found it ... at that time it was easy to buy a watch for $ 1. Never been serviced. I still have it. And it still works well all these decades later.
Ask about the lifespan of the watch and I think about this old thing found on the street.

And my 93-year-old mother has an old unnamed quartz watch ... I think it should be at least 50 years old. Probably the new one costs $ 10. Maybe $ 20 maximum. What she wears every day. It's a gold tone finish ... beaten to hell and back ... banged, scratched, gouged ... I looked at it when I changed the battery for it ... gold finish still looks remarkably good.
People are always asking about the life of the gold finish on replica watches and I think about my mother's watch.

I have a 51 year old omega Geneve (my wife wears it) and it works as soon as you pick it up and keeps great time, not sure it’s been serviced either.

These factories have it made. Call it a new version and the forums make up all the improvements themselves. If they had changed anything other than the bracelet they would be shouting it from the rooftops to keep their marketshare.

This happens a lot. TDs would also mention these updates too.

Honestly, you should not lubricate metal bracelets. It will attract dust and dirt particles as it’s sticky. And dust particles attached to two moving pieces of metal equal abrasion, meaning your bracelet will last less.

And no, cleaning it thoroughly won’t remove the lubricant (and if it does, what’s the purpose of applying it in the first place). Just wear the bracelet and they will get better in a matter of days/weeks.

I always de-plastic and then wash them with a tiny bit of detergent and water and wear, never had an issue.
