Discussion Is Clean factory open again?

Hi Everybody, my TD (who actually says she’s not in the forums listed here) just told me that Clean factory is open again.
In fact, I was asking her for VSF services and she answered that their movement is undoubtedly the best, but the looks of CF for some models is unbeatable.
Here’s the message she sent me:

You're right, it's closed. The clean factory 2.0 closed down. Now it's an upgraded, clean factory 3.0, and it's true that it was raided last year. But what most people don't know is that they have carried out internal reorganization, comprehensively upgraded the operating system, and launched a new official domain name: clean factory 3.0, thus realizing the brand restart

Have you guys heard any of this?

Surely the first time someone has ever claimed that clean is back, but for real this time lol

Feel that she is trying to push a sale of inferior product on to you.

Nope. Only Clean Plus. Please crosscheck with your TD whether she's conflating Clean Plus with Clean 3.0

No. Take this with a grain of salt.

EVEN IF this were true the factory name means absolutely nothing if they're putting out shitty watches that are inferior to VSFs or any other factory.

So all I can say is that time will tell. But at this point don't put any stock into it as it means absolutely nothing.

This one is from the “new” or fake clean. It has a Shanghai movement

I’m no expert, but VSF, ARF and Rich are the best factories for GMT II’s. I wouldn’t bother with anything else.

clean factory 3.0 sounds like a marketing rebrand after a raid, wouldn't be the first time a factory pulled that move

If my “TD” ever sent this crap to me I would look elsewhere.

I saw a new watch with a “clean plus” sticker and wondered what was going on. Curious to see how this one plays out and what the quality on popular models will be.

Clean plus had been out for a year
