Looks good!
Have you peered into the case to view the movement? I would love to see some macros of that.

I have not. That’s a bit over my head at the moment. But I went with the clean cause of the better movement. Have you heard positive things on the 3285 movements in these?

My hands-on experience with clones is limited to A4130s (see my Big Kahuna & Golden Cuckoo threads for details). Sorry.

When it comes to movements I generally stay with the A2824 or A2836. They’re easier as well as cheaper to replace. If you have a problem with the cloned Rolex movement it’s more expensive to replace.

My introduction to taking a movement apart was this watch.. I dropped it...hard, and knocked stuff loose. I figured, if it's broken why not teach myself in the meantime. So the DD3285 was my starter. It came in handy on a Bruce Wayne that I purchased (CF) in that some of the screws, on the top bridge, backed themselves out and one went in the escapement and one lay under the balance wheel. Had I not taken that first one apart, I would not have come close to fixing this one. IMG_7503.thumb.jpeg.649ceb759fcb2f949a3f536b590602a0.jpegIMG_7509.thumb.jpeg.a4e7429923cd8bc4abcd45d0e6bf6a79.jpegIMG_7507.thumb.jpeg.3f9bc5eada996a48c0a6100eff7dce5a.jpegIMG_7504.thumb.jpeg.c9045fda7f8d8be22b7502b3220ede0f.jpeg
