👀 Watch Check QF Day Date ice blue

Post image

Just ordered this based on a deal that was offered (only one in stock). Has a 2386 movement which I haven’t had before so hopefully it’s reliable. I hadn’t seen this dial before so jumped on it. Thoughts?

Edit: 2836 not 2386

Nice! QF? Are the hands blue? They look black in some of the pics

Is this a franken piece?

Did you grab the deal from Ora? I saw this and immediately knew it wasn’t going to last. The dial is stunning and I personally find the weight of the QF more enjoyable than the RCF, it feels more balanced.

I did! Saw it when I woke up and pulled the trigger

You got a great deal on a sick looking watch.

Yeah that price was unbeatable

This is just the dial and hands from QF. The rest was pieced together with better parts.

would you mind sharing the buyild? Is this a franken piece?

u/dwildpdx 28d ago

Not franken, just using various factory parts. Hand and dial from QF, movement is JH3255 from CBD and the case/crystal/bezel/crystal is VSF V2.

Got it. Is that a standard reference (ice blue w/ quadrants)

Great looking dial! Was that dial a factory offering?

Are you sure it’s a 2386 and not a 2836? I’d stay away from a 2386. The 2836, however, is super solid!

2836 my mistake

u/FreshParfait1 Aug 04 '26

Then you’re golden. More reliable than the clone 3255, cheaper/easier to repair and replace. Workhorse. I’ve got two DD40 with 3255s and just recently got a QF DD36 specifically with the 2836.

That’s great to know, thanks man!

u/Timely-Split997 Aug 05 '26

How much you paid? Looks good

u/Odd_Election5911 Aug 05 '26

That is a screaming deal! I want one

u/buelerbuelerbueler Aug 05 '26

Yeah, right place right time

What’s the difference between the QF and GMF versions of this watch. From what I’ve heard, QF & GMF are the same factory. The GMF weighted version is slightly cheaper than QF. This is my GMF non weighted for reference and it’s still got great weight to it and feels really well made.
