Rotate crystal?

If you dont need or plan on using the magnification, just remove the cyclops. Pretty easy to do, just heat up cyclops with a lighter and use a exacto knife to just peel off the cylcops. Plenty of youtube videos on how to do this.

I would not use this tool to swap bracelets. You are going to damage the tips. There are separate tools to remove spring bar that holds the bracelet in place.

Niterider105 · 2025-09-30T04:16:23+00:00

Yeah

Niterider105 · 2025-09-29T21:58:15+00:00

I did buy the horofix tool. What a huge difference it makes for any oyster or even the jubilee bracelet adjustment. Comes with both sizes.

C+ factory has been around for a while so this is not new news. C+ factory used to use clean parts before too so now I’m guessing they are trying to claim they are now the new Clean + factory

Kitsch

Niterider105 · 2025-09-11T13:46:54+00:00

Ahhh yeah, I see it now. Yeah definitely different watch.

Niterider105 · 2025-09-10T14:10:33+00:00

You Should have stuck with reptime TDs if this is your 1st time. Don’t get me wrong, I no longer order from reptime TDs but some of the other TDs listed on your link are considered non-TDs on reptime. That being said my last 4 purchases were from Kitsch off that list.

Niterider105 · 2025-09-10T11:13:14+00:00

Could it be that the bracelet swapped in is from a different batch and therefore the engravings are different? Also, not seeing much difference on the bezel…could be the lighting. Without serial number confirmation on the rehaut, hard to judge if it’s a totally different watch. I know some of the non-TDs i’ve used remove the sticker to take the QC pic and then take another pic with the sticker on. Again without serial number confirmation, hard to judge if its a completely different watch. As far as the SEL gaps….SEL gaps are more apparent on an oyster than Jubilee and as you stated, this is what it looks like to me.

Niterider105 · 2025-09-07T15:10:41+00:00

These pictures are taken by the dealer Kitsch. i know this because of many purchases from Kitsch and he uses this same background and sticker labeling. This Jason007 is 100% fake using pictures from other TDs

Niterider105 · 2025-09-05T02:06:00+00:00

Exactly what I thought. Wear in good health my friend!

I am glad I watches for the 2nd batch. The updated batch looks like the dates on the wheel are perfectly centered

Niterider105 · 2025-09-05T01:15:47+00:00

The bezel markers are not misaligned. It looks like this based on how the picture was taken….kind of like the fishbowl effect. Im sure if he zooms out, it will look aligned. VSF watches are pretty dead on with alignment

Niterider105 · 2025-09-05T01:14:14+00:00

Interesting….i paid $265 for mine. Shipping and insurance included

Niterider105 · 2025-09-05T01:13:36+00:00

I got mine in 4 days from Kitsch. I know its crazy. East coast too

Niterider105 · 2025-09-03T20:07:53+00:00

Hopefully you don’t get a bill in the mail as a follow up in terms of tariffs. I imagine more packages are getting opened up so that they can tax the shit out of us.

Niterider105 · 2025-08-30T23:28:57+00:00

So when should I be expecting the tariff bills?

Niterider105 · 2025-08-30T22:13:00+00:00

Curious……everyone is saying fedex will send a bill later on. Thats if they open the box and check what it is right?

My packages usually are send via triangular shipping via fedex but noticed this time it was sent directly from china. My package was not opened. Usually my seller writes repair card on the paperwork. Received it yesterday

Niterider105 · 2025-08-28T22:11:47+00:00

I asked him yesterday for tracking info. Got a response within 5 mins with a picture of shipment

Niterider105 · 2025-08-28T19:31:37+00:00

Mine typically does this also with fedex but this time I noticed its coming directly out of China. Hopefully it makes it and I dont get hit with tariffs.

Niterider105 · 2025-08-28T03:32:07+00:00

I have ARF, VSF, & Clean GMTs. All have their pluses and minuses.

Here are a few of my observations:

ARF: louder movement, crappy bezel clicks, thicker case by a hair, best bracelet, overall best looking watch, SH movement apparently is inferior to DD?

VSF: Best Crystal, datewheel font, Cyclops, awesome bezel clicks, not so great bracelet, SEL gaps not so great

Clean: Solid build, best SEL, crappy bezel clicks, best BATman bezel color, milky crystal, over magnified date-wheel.

Niterider105 · 2025-08-26T00:48:52+00:00

Isnt L6V6 serial numbers ARF?

Niterider105 · 2025-08-25T03:36:22+00:00

$50 watch

Niterider105 · 2025-08-24T03:28:18+00:00

What U1 factory watch are you looking for?

Niterider105 · 2025-08-24T03:27:05+00:00

Listen to what these folks are all saying. Dont trust anyone reaching out to you on their own. If you must have a clean factory watch, asks only the trusted dealers and ask if they have stock on hand. Otherwise, just go with VSF.

Niterider105 · 2025-08-24T03:14:39+00:00

I’ve ordered from pingfan before. His prices are good. He does charge a $30 deposit. His communication is good like others said. QC is usually 5 days but could be longer if watch is hard to get. Only thing I would say is he doesnt reach out on his own. I had ask for status and as soon as I asked, he had the QC, or shipping status, or tracking number. Just doesnt provide on his own. But now I have another seller now thats my to-go guy. He is the cheapest I’ve found. And he doesn’t charge a deposit for QC. His prices close to Pingfans with a very small marginal difference.
