Prof crystal in the 5711
Unfortunately I don’t have a gen 5711, not sure how dial colors compare between 5711 & 5712

I can say the PF bracelet is damn good!

Hi man! Thanks for those pics! About 2 weeks ago i had in my hand a PF 5711 and overall it's a well made watch...the problem it's the colour of the dial because even if the 5711 has 2-3 variation of the dial one of those is identical with the 5712 ( the other two are so similar) and as you can see most of the time the PF dial is too much blue/ electric blue...especially in front of light...and than it's off... PF it's also a little bit bigger in terms of diameter compared to the gen....If they fix those things - and with the Keylog74's datewheel - it would be a perfect rep

Agree the dial is a bit too 'electric blue' compared to the more vibrant blue genuine dial... that said it does look great! The size difference is so small I consider it a non-issue.

I recently ordered the the Keylog74 date wheel, I was cheap and paid for slow reg mail shipping so won't be here for a couple weeks. Agree it will make a big difference!

So I think the PF is closer to this gen image (see guy with sweater wearing 5711).

I also saw this thread comparing PF vs gen and the color is the same (see post #32):

That image is a bit modified...and the photo of the comparison between gen and pf do not show as well the real color of PF...once you have it in hand you can understand...the grey PF it’s a bit closer to a gen....
Belong this PF is now the best choose

Great comparison!

How would you say PF bracelet compare to Gen bracelet? Can you put PF bracelet on Gen case and vice versa?

It's excellent considering the cost. I'm not removing my gen 5712 bracelet so not sure if it would fit or not.

How does the gen bracelet feel on the wrist? Does it feel solid, sturdy, or does it feel somewhat flimsy and cheap like the PF bracelet. I'm not a fan of the PF bracelet, but I think it may be more gen like than the MKF bracelet (which is much sturdier, smooth, and solid).

I saw many people prefer PF bracelet over JJF or MKS. For me bracelet feel is very important when it comes to rep watches..

The 5711 has a decent rep, but is there no decent rep for. The 5712?
