I agree with you on the leather travel pouch (will it actually be leather?), its a lot better than that cardboard package that came with some PP reps.

If they repped it correctly, and not if they took the standard Aliexpress one and just put the Patek logo on it. Not like it's a bad one, but what I like about the PP one is the fact that it open up completely and that the cushion is secured on the side with pressure buttons

Thanks! I've checked with my modder and he said in general it's not recommended to turn the time back on the gen so yea.. I will definitely avoid doing that from now on.. Thanks again :)

First, this is interesting and should be noted

Second, the dial looks shaky at best. I need to see undoctored photos of particularly the 'matte sunburst' effect that the gen dial has. Seeing LuminorReptar 's photos that show the major differences between ZF, KMF and the gen dial, I need to see this.

I am going to hold off on order (as much as I want to), because I do not want a printed movement. However, the bracelet makes this quite tempting, I've always wanted to try the look.

Same here! Mine has 3x slots for watches and a 4th for cufflinks... or an interchangeable cushion for a 4th watch.

The quality of leather is incredible. I'd love to compare the rep version, if its any good I'd keep one for single watch travel.. !

I agree with your decision on holding off you order because of the printed movement. The printed movement looks cheap and unrefined compared to the gen-like engraved movement.

The steel bracelet has not been available for awhile. Perhaps ordering the steel bracelet version with an extra rubber strap for changing the look would be the way to go.

Just got my ZF 5167a, should I get the 3K 5167 as well or just wait for the 5711?

Wow these reps are getting better and better every year! Can’t wait for 2020 although I suspect it’s going to be an expensive one!

How do these wear? Similar to Piaget Polo?

This looks really promising. I’ve never fancied the bracelet, but I might have to give it a try

Thanks man... haha.. They are excessively expensive. You'd be hard-pressed to find one in the first place, they're incredibly rare since they're typically only offered as "gifts" from a Patek Philippe AD. To my knowledge they ran out of these..

The majority of the ones in circulation are for a single-watch. You really don't see many of the 2-watch / 4-watch travel cases..

Selling price roughly $800 ~ $1000 or so.
