Can’t wait for the 5296 G review. Waiting for the rose gold once it gets out but want to check a review first

ZF Calatrava is out
- Thread starter rcom440
- Start date
How easy would it be to make a Franken Calatrava (aside from rarity of parts)? I’ve seen a few gen dials online for sale and am thinking about my next project. Thanks for any pointers (search bar didn’t really return anything other than a dude who sold a Franken 5167).
A super rep afaik can never be classed with an open case back, even if it’s an officer’s case back where it can be flipped open. I would say defo NWBIG but don’t let the status of whatever it gets classed as deter you though
this defo looks NWBIG to my eyes although the beauty of a PP movement is another thing altogether!

I really want this, but waiting to see some QC's first. Not sure how 'left' the alignment of the DWO is in general.
I'd like to know this too, for the same reason. If the dial is spot on though, no need I guess

I ordered about 5 days ago, still waiting for QC, but I told my TD to look for centered date.

Generally, any open case back rep doesn't consider a superrep except the watch has the same movement+decoration like the genuine model.
However, if you don't take off the watch, the quality and the appearance of the watch is superb and really close to the real thing.
Thank you so much. When would the rose gold be out to get it !! And the date seems centered !!
Great thread, thank you for sharing, looking forward to seeing this rep on your wrists..
for the record, the CALATRAVA 5296 doesn't come with black dial, only the ivory/light salmon dial, for the white gold and the rose gold.. no black dial. but who knows in the future from PP, they might release it with black dial, just like how they did with the 5227G reference.
