AP Diver JF Now with inner bezel "3D" effect (V10).
Why can’t? Why can’t not?
As legend had profound explained about this unique embossing on the lume which will create an impeccable outline which was technically correct as compared to “ghost line” on the digits are done by machine in AP factory.
Like many, I joined the choir in singing praises to JF.
I do not know any ladies fingers can do this delicate embossing atm but of cos i stand to be corrected
I did not utter that gen bezel cant be used ley.

Jasonbaylee was right in saying that the dive bezel cannot be modded to be like the gen. But he did not say that it cannot be changed out for the gen. It in fact can.

Ok now I got what you meant.
I think that on the V9.5 it was also not possible to add the "3D" lume, to make it look more gen like. The only option always was to change for a GEN bezel. please correct me if I am wrong.
Anyway from what I have seen until now the V10 looks much more GEN like. After seeing some more photos from members after they received the watch, I will make my desicion.

I knew it can be changed with an GEN Bezel. I was just a bit confused when he said ""Inner bezel can’t be modded to gen-like in the latest version" and wanted to clarify what he meant. But my post was not well written so it was not clear what I meant.
Thank you legend, for your input, all the info and help you give to this community.

And thank you time_wizard for always asking intelligent questions. I mean it.
I see how you’ve done your research and planned your diver build and it seems you’re headed well in the right direction.

Thank you!
TBH I think that the mods which are (maybe) needed are:
- GEN inner bezel (hard to get) .... but lets see how good the V10 is, it will def not be like the GEN but maybe good enough
- Cyclop .... Profs cyclop is even better then the GEN, so JF stock might be even closer. --> Mikey stopped his production
- Mikey DW ... but I have heard he stopped printing DWs
- 21600 bph conversion
- GEN rubber strap
- maybe some GEN hands ... if I can get some.
- some members said, that the bezel screwes (hight) might also be modded to make it more GEN like

Look at this gen bezel and you will understand what different from the rep and gen. No lume on bezel. I show clearly the outline ok.

What's the point of posting this? This has been posted a while ago and it does not represent this newest version, nor does it represent the v9.5. Please stay on topic, factual and refrain from posting misleading comparisons.
