This QF clone 3255 caliber is typically regulated to perform within 卤8��12 seconds per day, depending on resting position and power reserve state.
- �� Power Reserve: Approximately 36 hours
- �� Complications: Instantaneous Day (12 o��clock) and Date (3 o��clock)
- �� Winding Direction: Bidirectional automatic winding
Technical Specifications
Measuring 12mm thick, the case incorporates high-density tungsten to achieve a 185.6g overall weight, significantly heavier than standard 135g steel variants.
Exclusive to the platinum line, the dial features a precise ice blue tone with deconstructed diagonal lines that interact dynamically with ambient light.
Reflecting the 2022 update for platinum models, the fluted bezel is heavily plated to mimic the distinct, cool white luster of solid platinum.
The semi-circular three-piece links are tungsten-weighted, featuring polished center links and a secure concealed folding clasp.
Why QF Factory for This Reference?
Many collectors ask: ��Why not GMF?��
While GMF also produces commendable heavy tungsten models, QF Factory excels specifically in the execution of the diagonal motif dial. The depth of the laser etching and the precise ice blue hue on the QF version present a more accurate light-play compared to competitors, while maintaining an impressive 185.6g weight distribution.
Full Disclosure: The day disc font weight on this QF caliber can occasionally appear marginally bolder than the genuine article when viewed under extreme magnification.

Collector Q&A
Q: Does the tungsten alloy case tarnish or change color over time?
A: No, the tungsten alloy is integrated into the structural base of the case and heavily plated to mimic the luster of platinum. It will not tarnish naturally, though standard care should be taken to avoid deep scratches that could penetrate the plating.
Q: How accurate is the ice blue color on this QF dial?
A: QF has achieved a highly accurate cool, crisp tone that closely matches the genuine platinum-exclusive dial. The laser-etched diagonal motif reacts dynamically to light, avoiding the flat or overly saturated blue often seen in lower-tier iterations of the 228236.
Q: Do the day and date change instantly at midnight on this movement?
A: Yes, the clone 3255 movement in this QF model features the correct instantaneous day and date change mechanism, snapping crisply around 00:00 rather than slowly rolling over during the late evening hours.
Q: Are there any known quirks with this specific QF heavy version?
A: Due to the dense tungsten alloy, the watch is noticeably heavier than standard replicas (185.6g vs ~135g), which slightly alters the weight distribution toward the watch head. Additionally, the day disc font can appear marginally bolder than genuine under loupe inspection.
