***What Patek Philippe do you have on your wrist today? PP Picture thread***

It’s in as much as it can be; the crown was modded to be shorter than stock 3KF but still quite a way to go to be gen like

modded or butchered :-(

I finally got it sized. Took it to a watchsmith and he said it was nearly impossible. I think he had to heat it and everything. But it’s finally sized and I love it. Such a beautiful watch (the SS is a V1 with Miyota)

Your watch smith was probably unaware that Patek Philippe bracelets utilizes an extra sleeve along with a friction pins when sizing their bracelets. There should be no heating involved. Personally, I prefer screws, much easier to work with.

BTW, great looking watches. Congrats.

Is this stock 3K?

Is this stock 3K?

This is the @AMF build with a 3KF base, you can find all the details in their trusted dealer section. In short, case/bracelet work and buff dial/DW however I switched the Buff DW to a Keylog/Bionone DW

Yep! SW dial, PPF hands, (might be an SW subdial hand on one of them, I spilled my parts during assembly lol), Gen moonphase+gen moonphase gear.

No pinion mods, bezel reshaping, case work etc.

Are you kidding on the " I spilled my parts"? You started w/ PPF or 3KF? Crown modded ?

Only PPF makes a 5712, no crown modding necessary.

Im not some legit watchmaker, just a hobbyist. I had SW subdial hands on previously, and PPF hands off to the side- elbow hit the holder at some point while taking the hands off so I could get to the moonphase mechanism and the SW and PPF subdial hands ended up mixed. They basically look the same.

Gotcha. Lol. End result is a nice looking piece

Took these 3 pics at the same time under same lighting/location. Amazing how many different shades of blue/gray/green you can get.
This is BP V3 (2014).
