C+ factory Rolex GMT model with cola bezel, meteorite dial and 3285 movement: Will the functions be exactly the same?

The Rolex Wristwatch model is produced by the leading Super Clone manufacturer workshops with a high-tech ceramic case, standard case diameter and Dandong 3235 Clone movement architecture. It is among the most successful 1:1 super clone watch reviews on the market, with its sapphire crystal AR coating glass, original case tolerances and detailed workmanship.

In fact, all the 3285s in the first batches come with this meteorite dial. Maybe if the sales of the meteorite dial do not go well, he will put it on other bezels (cola bezel, Inter blue bezel, black bezel, etc.); Other than that, it will always be this. First, let's take a look at this meteorite dial. I think C+'s copying speed should be appreciated.

Why? Because he directly took what others had already made. In other words, those manufacturing factories that produce parts for Clean now also supply C+. That's why parts such as the dial, bezel, hour and minute hands, and case are exactly the same as Clean, there is no difference.

Let's start with the bezel first. Same as Bezel Clean; This is the newest batch ceramic bezel. As the ceramic bezel was gradually updated, the transition line in the middle almost completely disappeared; That through line no longer exists. The transition is very natural now, it is quite close to the original.

So what is the real insurmountable problem with this star bezel? Color problem. The blue part is not bad, the color difference is not too big. But in the current red part, the color difference is still a little big. Because the original has a slightly pinkish tone; In C+ and Clean it is dark red. Still, it looks much better compared to the bright red in previous batches; At least it's dark red now, right? We have talked about this color setting before. Why is it difficult to adjust? Because they bring the ceramic powder to a color close to the original, but when baked at high temperatures, it goes into a color change process, so it is very difficult to control. That's why replica watches are currently not as good as the green of this starched, green Submariner. Still, it's enough to satisfy the enthusiasm; You don't have any other choice right now anyway. You either get the original or you get this, right? Bezel is like that.

The spin feel is similar to Clean; Bidirectional rotating outer bezel.

The real highlight is that dial surface: a meteorite dial. What should I say about this dial? Each one has a different pattern, it really has character; This piece you bought is unique in the world. You can examine the pattern; This bright part at the top is the iron in the meteorite, that is, the iron on the meteorite. That's why meteorite dials are actually subjected to magnetic purification before being installed on the watch.

To verify whether a meteorite dial is really used, let's take a dial and look at it. You can see, there is an ordinary copper dial at the bottom, with a layer of meteorite added on it. This is a layer of meteorite; It's not applied paint or anything. Real meteorite was used. Totally genuine.

So how does the C+ GMT meteorite dial compare to the Buff and GS?

Previously this change dial was Buffed. In comparison, I think C+ does it better. First, the bottom 3 lines of text in Buff are the same thickness. But in the C+ dial, the first line is thicker and the bottom two lines are thinner; This is the same as the original I saw. However, we shouldn't ignore the fact that the original may have different dial versions, right? So the two are close to each other. If you have a GMT with a modified Buff meteorite dial, there is no need to buy it separately; The choice is yours. But now C+ makes it ready for you, there is no need for modifications; It is more affordable than the renovation done in the past. It is XXX cheaper than the complete watch with buff dial. I think it is quite convenient and affordable. GS pales in comparison to C+, see the picture below.

Moreover, if you replace the meteorite dial with Clean, you will definitely only find the 3186 movement in the cola bezel; However, this one has the 3285 movement. It is much more in line with the original.

Now let's talk about the 3285 and 3186 mechanisms.

Pay attention to this: The new GMT model with a small crown at the 6th position carries the 3285 movement. The one without the small crown is the old version of the original, and it uses the 3186 movement.
This is a matter of distinguishing the original. So right now, it is more affordable to buy the complete C+ watch directly than to replace the meteorite dial with Clean. Since the 3285 movement is used, the minute hand moves backwards when setting the watch forward; In 3186, it goes further in the advanced setting. This is another way to distinguish the two mechanisms. It is now fully functionally compatible with the original. Again, the one who owns the mechanism becomes the ruler; The mechanism is really important. It ensures that the functions are the same as the original in every aspect; This is the importance of removing the mechanism from the mold.

As for the case, it is an original 18 carat white gold case. But it's definitely not possible for them to give you white gold on a XXX replica watch, right? They can't sell it to you at a loss of tens of thousands of yuan, haha.

Four ears; pointed at all four corners, beautifully made; It should already be sharp.

Now I showed you the workmanship of this steel bracelet.

This belt is actually the same as the Daytona. There's no telescoping buckle like on the Submariner; Same with Daytona. So you can turn it on and make three-stage fine adjustments. Since the original is ultimately k gold it has some hallmarks on it: au750 etc. seals.
These seals are printed very clearly. There are also corresponding stamp marks on the buckle; This part was processed moderately. We have examined the GMT model a lot so far; There doesn't seem to be much else to say.

Now let's talk about this mechanism. The original 3285, 3235 and 3230 movements are identical. 3230 basic movement; 3235 with date function added to it; 3285 is the GMT function added to it. In other words, a GMT hand was added with a few intermediate wheels. Now it has been changed to set the date only with the hour hand, and there is a 3235 structure at the bottom.

Attention: Since the Shanghai 3235 movement is used, the power reserve cannot reach 70 hours; Only Dandong's 3235 has a 70-hour power reserve, while Shanghai's has only 40-odd hours. This is not actually a demolding mechanism. We have previously disassembled it and looked at its internal structure; Dandong 3235, which is the actual extrusion. We have explained this before, those who are interested should just take a look at our old articles. We will not go into the internal structure much here, there is not much to say about this mechanism. At least when you look at it without disassembling it, you can see these structures and the positions of the wheels; all the same as the original mechanism. Some modules, gears and working principles of the GMT function on the front are also the same as the original. Even this is too good! Sufficient. It's really not bad to handle; It is quite good for this price range.
Actually, Dandong's 3235 movement is not very good either. As for whether Dandong will make the 3285 movement, who knows? Didn't Dandong say before that he would no longer produce new molded movements? But this mechanism is not a new mold mechanism, just a few cogs have been added. Dandong doesn't seem to want to do much. The 40-odd hours of power reserve is already enough.

Summary: The meaning of this watch is; Firstly, thanks to its use of the 3285 movement, all functions correspond exactly to the original. Secondly, coming directly with a meteorite dial saves you a considerable amount of renovation costs. Those who like renovation can buy it, and those who want to finish the job in one go can now buy it.
I hope this article was useful to you. If you are interested, you can follow the site more closely; We will share more detailed disassembly, real shot review and real-replica comparison in the future.
