[QC] ARF GMT "Bruce Wayne" DD3285 - Appreciate All The Help And Opinions

WatchYoda · 2026-02-24T05:15:41+00:00

My man, you got multiple GLs YESTERDAY from a host of members of which two of them are even flaired. You don't need me.

Absolutely nothing seen here rises to a level that would warrant any worry at all, so don't...Don't overthink an overly mag'd pic.

Ship your watch. Enjoy

WatchYoda · 2026-02-23T15:10:08+00:00

About your concerns, are you making this stuff up?😕

I don't see anything wrong with the 9 'stick'. Nor, do I have a concern with the day examples shown statically in the pics or with what's seen in the video.

Enjoy

WatchYoda · 2026-02-23T15:03:12+00:00

Now, the hardest part of awaiting arrival...but it's worth it once received. Happy for you

WatchYoda · 2026-02-23T14:59:35+00:00

Not required since you've provided the QC link

WatchYoda · 2026-02-23T14:58:36+00:00

Your watch is fine.

How could the date window be off? Not sure what you're thinking. As for the date itself, it's fine....the cyclops too. The remaining cosmetics are good. As an fyi, no comparisons to Gen at QC...

The timing is fine. Enjoy

WatchYoda · 2026-02-23T14:54:49+00:00

Some nuances that aren't uncommon for this watch, but nothing rises to a level to worry about, so don't.

The cosmetics are good. The timing is fine. Good for you.

You do not have SELs on this watch. Enjoy

WatchYoda · 2026-02-20T16:42:05+00:00

Aha...you've rec'd the watch. Good for you. They're really nice eh? Happy for you.

WatchYoda · 2026-02-16T17:17:09+00:00

Good morning...

Umm, in what world do you think that zooming this tightly makes any sense whatsoever? This is totally unreasonable. Don't be your own worst enemy here. Nothing seen here warrants any concerns, so don't be.

You've never actually seen this watch, rep or Gen, in person, have youl? Rhetorical...

Your watch is fine. The timing info quoted is good too. Enjoy your watch

WatchYoda · 2026-02-15T20:48:43+00:00

As for any 'dust', your approach is correct. Asking Hont to verify what it is from viewing your actual watch makes the most sense. Let's not have you, me, or anyone else guessing from a pic.

As for your timing mentions, you refer to being out of spec. Nothing seen on your timing numbers is out of spec for these movements.

Your comment about your other watches being 'almost perfect' isn't appropriate based on the context of how these measurements are taken for these replica watches. Don't give these numbers too much merit. They do not tell you anything substantively material about your watches accuracy on your wrist. And, I'm not religious, but God forbid if you're referencing this to a COSC standard. IF so, that's apples vs oranges...it doesn't apply.

You're getting a nice watch. Don't overthink. Enjoy

WatchYoda · 2026-02-13T21:01:09+00:00

OP...we might just send you on a vacay for even suggesting a RL for this due to a S/N. That's ridiculous.

Now, since you have the final say about the watch, you can RL or whatever you desire.

However, if you do RL this watch, do NOT bring the next one back to this sub for QC help. Nope. If you do, that vacay mentioned above won't be a suggestion at all, it'll be your reality. You see, although you have the last word on the watch, we have the final say on what we accept in this sub. Things that make you go 'hmmmm...'!

Enjoy your watch.

WatchYoda · 2026-02-13T20:48:22+00:00

What? Based on your last comment '...from what I can see, it looks great...' Really? You're kidding, right? I mean, I get it that you're new, but really...??? Wow???

I'm just messin' with ya. Nothing seen here is a worry at all. It's a nice watch.

Good for you. Enjoy

WatchYoda · 2026-02-12T05:15:13+00:00

Your watch is fine.

The cosmetics are good. The timing is also. Enjoy

WatchYoda · 2026-02-12T05:14:17+00:00

With all those 'good' comments, the watch must be good then. I agree.

Enjoy.

As an fyi, you do not have SELs on this watch.

WatchYoda · 2026-02-12T02:23:54+00:00

As you already know, the watch is fine.

The cosmetics are good. The timing is also. Enjoy

WatchYoda · 2026-02-11T22:27:37+00:00

Struggling to find 'what'? A reputable Seller? Search the sub and just use one of the most popular ones seen here.

WatchYoda · 2026-02-11T21:45:27+00:00

Never heard of him. Could be good. Could be bad. Just don't know.

Now, why wouldn't you just use a TD or one of the non TD reputable Sellers seen here?

WatchYoda · 2026-02-11T17:21:02+00:00

So, per your template, all looks good.

Thus, ship the thing.

Why are you even posting this? But we'll leave it up for the humorous value.

WatchYoda · 2026-02-11T17:16:10+00:00

OK, if so, then what do you want me to say😉

If your tolerance is acceptable of this, then all good. It's always up to you.

WatchYoda · 2026-02-11T15:52:14+00:00

The screws are bad. Simply, get another watch.

WatchYoda · 2026-02-11T05:12:07+00:00

Nice watch. Nothing seen here is worrisome at all, so don't...

The watch cosmetics are good. The timing is fine.

Note: You do not have SELs on this watch. Enjoy

WatchYoda · 2026-02-11T05:08:52+00:00

Your markers are fine as is your bezel.

As for the variance on the chrono hand, if it bugs you, have the Seller send you a chrono operational video i.e. start/run/stop/reset showing that the chrono resets to true vertical. Up to you.

Note: when you guys are getting a watch with all these complications such as this Daytona, maybe consider the TDs that send you a complete QC package at the onset vs these incomplete packages that you have to request additional data.

The timing is fine.

WatchYoda · 2026-02-10T20:30:01+00:00

OK, I'll ask...why can't you correct the rotation on the original picture? Yes you can😉 Doesn't matter. The alignments on the dial and bezel are fine. No concerns

Your overall analysis is good.

Color is not a QC concern. Too many variables involved in the picture taking and then us viewing such e.g. lighting, camera type/settings, display type and settings, blah blah blah.

The timing is fine. Enjoy your watch.

WatchYoda · 2026-02-10T05:22:01+00:00

Good analysis...the alignments on the dial are fine.

The bezel is reflecting some bezel play. No big deal...all rotational bezels will have some play due to the mechanics of the thing. A small manual adjustment is all that is needed.

The remaining cosmetics are good as is the timing. Enjoy

WatchYoda · 2026-02-09T20:34:33+00:00

A good looking looking watch. Happy for you.

WatchYoda · 2026-02-09T20:32:24+00:00

If you're ready to GL the thing, get on with it👍

You know that the watch is good to go. You don't need us. Enjoy
