Thanks for the post, will come in handy when I’ve got the OEM parts. I’m looking at changing the dial on my v3 ROO with a genuine dial and wanted to see if anyone has tried this?

Use the search function. It's not as easy as you think here.

Thanks, I’m a bit new to this although had several watches now. I’ve searched high and low for someone who has put a OEM dial in the latest v2 watches.

Well I’ve searched in the places I thought it’d be in you strangely obnoxious chap.

You didn't have the pleasure of getting to me yet. And believe me, you don't want to. Now fuck off, do your homework and watch how you speak to staff or you'll be out the door quicker than you may think.

I am looking for a tutarial, how to remove/assemble the inner diving ring on a AP Diver - maybe the above mentioned post from archimedes contains this info, but i also cannot find this post.

Is there a tutorial on disassembling a AP Diver that goes a bit deeper?

You would have to go through all the steps in the original post, remove the screws then movement then tachy

Are you sure? I have read that you dont need to remove movement.. just caseback, remove besel and then you are good to go. But Im not sure..

Your right ... would not need to remove the movement.

But would need to unfasten the bezel screws from the back which is tricky

Did you managed to remove the tachy by your own?
Spotted that my ROO have a misaligned tachy and i'd like to try to realign it by my own, but if it's too difficult i will live with this misaligned.
If you can enlight me a bit.
Thanks

In place of the tweezers, what do you call the proper tool to remove the nuts that hold down the bezel screws? I'm trying to do this on a 15400 and I think the holes/screws are smaller; I don't see how a pair of tweezers can fit in there.

If someone can enlighten me on the name of the tool I'll try to source one. Thanks!
