They use the same movement. Since dwo fitting can be even more onerous than exchanging movement, you might just want a straight swap of the movement.

so bridge, hands an dial from ppf right?

I overheard from somewhere that the PPF hands are shorter than gen, but if you want to put PF hands on you will have to relume the PF hands. Bridge is nice but still a shabby rep bridge, not mandatory.

PPF stock

And after extensive case correction:

PPF V4 Nautilus case before and after mods. The stock rep in the latest version is finished and shaped much like an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak. It has a sharp edge over the endlinks and a very coarse brushing that is incorrect and it is of course missing proper bevels. I’ve reshaped the lugs to a soft curve as per gen, cut bevels and a added a satin-brushed finish.

Hello Folks,

I don't think there is a modder who builds and sells hybrid blue Nautilus models from watch parts got in on his/her own. Should there is, please PM me.

Also, if there is a modder who can undertake re-shaping/finishing my would-be PPF or 3KF case, please contact me. I live in EU.

which one do you use? So talking about the case - best case is still the PF (not 3KF), right?

Hi to all, I've showed my PPF v2 to a friend who owns a gen (lucky guy!) immediately he commented about the weight of my PPF... a way too light!!! :confused:

Does anyone has the chance to give to us one exact weight parameter... something like a "total weight for a wrist measure"??
