Seems like the Nautilus PPF is still the better move?

Crown looks the same and the non engraved markings doesn’t seem like a plus.

I dont know if hand pinion is same on this PP324 and 9015 but i think stem height is same. PF case,PPF white dial,PPF Hands? or maybe custom hand project in future?

I was just looking at gen pics and find the crowns to be confusing. Some crowns look more flush while some look accurate to the PPF/3K versions. Did patek change their crowns on different models-Thoughts ?

The dial printing looks retry weak and a bit too much electric blue in the dial

The crown guards are different on the pictures as well. Not sure but never seen a gen without the sections right next to the crown

Yes these are pictures of two genuine watches that have 2 different crown settings, which makes it confusing due to the complaint of the replica not having a flush crown.

3K maker told me their watch smith will back to work till 13th Mar. When he back to work to assemble the watch, they will have more watches:)

If this watch nails the basics (engraved clone movement, proper color/print/lume of dial/hands, correct bezel thickness and crown position), watch smith will have to work overtime to meet demand. They better start stocking up on the caffeine ;)

Hi Kobe, do you know if they are going to engrave the movement or not?
Are they going to make a white dial?
And about this nautilus, the dial prints are really not accurate. So it’s the bracelet.

i'm sure at some point they will be engraving the movement. we now see one in the wild but my TD told me they would already be using the printed movement from the aquanaut. when that changes....maybe kobe24 will know....but i'm guessing for now.....its a while out.

does it matter? we already see one and its a printed. so we know the 3k 5711 is printed. who knows what and when they will do a v2, v3 etc.


i was just about to place an order for my 5711 white by ppf myself. passing on the 3k. i will wait for an engraved before i try 3k. gives it time for the movement reliability questions.
also allow for some better dial coloring. i think that will always be an issue but something to strive for. then a blue dial isn't out of the question. its hard to nail it.
