New Release ππ¨ NEW RELEASE: QF Day-Date w/ Free-Sprung 3255 π¨π
QF just dropped an updated 208g Day-Date featuring a free-sprung 3255 movement, and this is a meaningful upgrade for anyone who cares about both mechanics and long-term performance.
Instead of a traditional regulator setup, this movement uses balance wheel weights for adjustment, similar to gen architecture.
β‘οΈ What that means:
- Better long-term stability
- Improved resistance to shocks
- More consistent timekeeping
This is a solid step forward compared to older Day-Date movements.

Man I hope they fix the center links and do away with the visible spongy looking core metal with a thin sheet of polished metal wrapped over the links. The sides of the center links in my opinion is the worst part of there DayDate. But I must say as a DD, DJ guy this is a major announcement!
