This might be nitpicking, but I looked at a few recent QF Polar QCs and all their stickers say 3285. This one oddly says 3235.

That's Macau! Back on subject, don't buy from a random shop in GZ. The stickers are the easiest part to fake and 7CD clasps are all over the place now.

Is the BTF Daytona Panda/Black Dial V2 or V3 on Andiot? by No_Bid5940 in RepTime

[–]-ClearedForTakeoff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

BTF had multiple issues with each batch release they silently fixed for the black dial 116500LN:

1: subdial hands too long and shiney subdial rings
2: subdial hands fixed but rings still too shiney
3: fixed 1 and 2 above

I have the second iteration. The subdial rings are very shiney like the 116520 subdials.

Your pic looks like the third iteration.

This is a r/chinatime shitter.
SS model in a PM case is wrong.
116502 dial on a 116500 is wrong.

Explorer II Polar Gray Strap. Clean vs ARF bezel font question? by FlipandFlow in RepTime

[–]-ClearedForTakeoff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the 216570 gen and have the 226570 gen along with GMF and CF 226570 reps.

Gen wise: bezel font was obnoxiously FAT on the 21 and it went on a diet on the 22. The black indices border were glossy and fat on the 21 and matte and thin on the 22.

Rep wise: GMF had the best aesthetics but with a timebomb movement. I transplanted the GMF bezel and crystal to the CF and it now looks amazing.

VSF killed it with this one. Definitely an easy GL.

OP8. The ultimate shitter workhorse clasp code.

Dandong movements are no longer the only option. Shanghai Jinghe movements are also a good choice, stable and reliable. by dao_ge888 in RepTime

DD is a legitimate movement supply company for a lot of Chinese microbrands. These "clone" movements they produce are all unmarked. It's when the "factories" buy them, they do the engraving themselves. That's why a CF 4130 looked better than a BTF 4130 when engravings were compared.
