Clean Rolex Datejust 41 mm Blue Dial 3235 What is the Quality of the Movement?

I said this before when describing VS Factory: this blue must be bright blue. So in sunlight; It can pass the test in very little blue sunlight. If it can pass, this means it is a very good product. Because it should never turn purple under the sun; The blue should be blue, not even a little purple. Or, if there is a visible shift to purple, it means that the blue is not at its full consistency. This is a very, very difficult job. I'm shooting in the afternoon right now, and the sun is just right; so you can see that there is no escape to the slightest purple. I shoot this directly as a video, and not even with a phone or camera. So this blue color is really beautiful; This was one of the points that amazed us when we first held it in our hands. Second point: this Clean 3235 movement uses a fully integrated movement, not the 2884. For example, although AR Factory does a good job, it uses 2824 movement. Previously, VS Factory also preferred the frequently used 3235 movement, but VS's 3235 movement is no longer available; It stopped being produced after it was shut down, obviously it's something that's no longer produced. But aside from its discontinuation in the market, as of today, this 3235 movement is the best. It is also a fully integrated mechanism. The 3235 of the VS that was discontinued was Dandong production; Clean, on the other hand, uses the 3235 movement of the Shanghai movement factory. In terms of stability performance, the two are close to each other; If we were to give points, one would be 10 and the other would be 9.5.

There is no difference between VS Factory 3235 Movement (Dandong Production) and Clean 3235 Movement (Shanghai Production) in terms of stability; So Where's the Only Difference?

The difference is in the processing. Dandong's 3135 movement, that is, Dandong series movements, is a little thinner and more beautiful in its processing; That's just the difference. The Shanghai mechanism did not put much effort into its processing; He devoted all his efforts to the performance of realism and determination. In other words, the focus of each mechanism factory is different; This makes the difference in the resulting products. Of course, most people love what is both beautiful and full; Just like when you're looking for a girlfriend, right? One wants to have both, but it will be best when both are provided. But if we have to choose one of the two, of course the one that is full is preferred for life; Just being beautiful isn't enough, right? So you choose one again. Of course, this is entirely up to personal taste. These Dandong-produced 3235 and 3135 have both external and internal beauty; The exterior of these 3135 and 3235 movements from the Shanghai factory is slightly missing, but the interior is the same. That's the difference; Maybe it's a little complicated, but if you understand it, it's enough. Let's continue explaining the model. Let's look at the workmanship first. Five rows of belts used to be highly criticized by everyone; So the old ZZ Factory you all know. The boss is still the same boss, but his management used to be criticized by everyone. Later, they switched to the belt manufacturer of the same factory as AR; that is, the parts supplier was changed to the same company. But AR does not accept this, because they just used the same parts supplier, it is not exactly the same as AR. That's why Submariner is for the same reason; AR Factory upgraded all of their own belts, just to break away from Clean. So you can use it, but not my name or reputation. Just let everyone know. The buckle and case factory are also the same, as they use AR's for all the strap work. But I don't know if he made any changes or upgrades to it; I did not make a horizontal comparison on this issue. But it wouldn't be too bad; Even if it makes upgrades or minor changes later, this itself is not bad anyway. Can you say this: AR Factory wasn't bad before, in fact it used to be the best; He made a small change of writing inside the buckle just to make it stand out, just a tiny change inside the buckle, the rest remained unchanged. The Datejust is really good. Look, the inner sandblasting under the sun, the grain feeling is very strong, and it is very clean and beautifully done. This is the strap, there is nothing to say about the strap, no words. Let's leave it in one sentence; We said it in one sentence. The dial side is what I just mentioned, it is very important, it cannot be vague: it must be bright blue. It's so beautiful under the sun, this blue is so pretty.

Then another point, what I love most is this history. I used to say about the history of AR Factory, including the history of VS Factory, they all had a problem, more or less; It would either be a little thick, or it would bleed a little, or it would be annoying. But when I first picked up this Clean factory one, at first it was extremely centered and very smooth; So both up-down and right-left are right on point. In fact, each of them is like this. The first batch of goods arrived in short supply because so many people are scrambling to buy this thing. Frankly, it is important that each one is very well centered. This is one. The second point is that its history is very clean; I don't know how to describe it, it's very nice to look at. If you see the actual product, this date window... there's not much of a magnifying glass or anything like that, I don't know where it's different, right? Anyway, the overall appearance and the feel of the dial surface to me are very good. Look at this bezel; I'm moving the light at this angle right now, that toothed bezel is also very nicely done. Again very beautiful; This threaded bezel also requires some effort. And as for the hour and minute hands, they are full; We say the top is empty and the bottom is full, that is, almost the upper half of our hour and minute hands is empty, then when you look at it from a vertical perspective, the shaft coming out of it is full, it is the same as the original. In other words, the top is empty and the bottom is full, just like the 3135 Submariner; Just so everyone knows, there is no need to even mention it anymore. Definitely rebuilt with full miles. If it's not a full center shaft anyway, you wouldn't even be worthy of doing such an integrated mechanism job; Today, integrated mechanisms are generally central and national. This is the most basic thing. Let's look at the buckle writing in general, it is also very beautiful. The score I can give in terms of appearance, touch feeling and closeness to reality is: it exceeds, that is, it exceeds. But let me tell you whether it can surpass VS Factory: I don't have VS's version, so I couldn't compare it. Because in my memory, VS would also do it very well. Let me say this; I don't have any other problems, I just haven't touched it myself for 5 months. After it was closed on April 9, I haven't received a blue dial for 5 months; I don't count the second-hand blue dial of the VS, I have never owned it as a brand new watch. So I can't use what's left in my memory as a reference anymore, and it won't be from now on either. This really is the best right now; I can say this with certainty.

Clean Rolex Datejust 3235 Movement Bracelet Is Five Rows or Three Rows Plate Bracelet Better?

Now let's look at three rows. The wearing experience of three rows and five rows is actually different. Five rows are slightly looser, closer to the ankle and softer; Three rows is more standard, similar to the Submariner, right? A more classic steel bracelet; according to your personal taste. There is no such thing as which is good and which is bad, they are both the same; It's just a matter of model.

Is the Clean Rolex Datejust 3235 Movement Worth Buying?

Let's talk about this 3235 movement from Clean. If you buy it yourself, do not try to open several of them, there is no need. Let's look at this 3235 movement; They also made a mainspring without a guide. Is it actually truly unguided? This is just visually unguided; However, they turned these two speed adjustment needles upside down and installed them inside, it looks very nice when you look at it like this. If you don't look at these two mechanisms, they really don't make you think at all; That feeling effect was captured. There is text at the bottom, and a code has been added to it; Everything is real, including the gears. Turn it over here and look at these three gears; The rotor rotates while it is being installed, that red is very noticeable. See, it's turning little by little. Let me move this down a little bit; I mean, it's not a plate mechanism, it's a proper integrated mechanism. There is also a stone in the middle of the rotor of 3235, purple in color; There is a purple stone in the middle, it is not a sticker, it is real. When you look at it this way, the mechanism is actually not bad, it's not that exaggerated; but it's actually very well done. The mechanisms of this Shanghai mechanism factory and Dandong mechanism factory are really good. Dandong was recently closed, Shanghai produced; Actually, how should I say this?

I don't see anything behind it worth talking about in depth, because this is a very mature model now. It's just that its current development is definitely ongoing; So it's like dividing the cake a little more. Because after the previously dominant one was closed or disappeared, you could only buy AR Factory's 2824 movement Datejust. But AR Factory doesn't want to release goods lately; This is the only thing you can buy right now, and it's really well made. This is not a choice out of necessity, it's like putting a feather in the cap. Based on the previous basis of AR, it used an integrated mechanism, solid center shaft, and then a comfortable belt compatible with the original. Think of it this way: AR Factory's case and strap, plus VS's dial surface and craftsmanship, plus the integrated movement; combination of the two. The price is about the same, which is a very good thing.
