I guess the 5712 case has a snap back.
Actually I'm not sure now, I'm sure someone can chime in

The caseback needs to be removed with a caseback tool. You can try with a blunt knife but you risk scratching it.

Removing the front case also doesn't help because you can't access the crown release from the front and you will not be able to remove the movement out of the case to access the back.

Is there threads on the casback or will it pop out ?

I would use GS Hypo cement. Just a few small dots.

Don't be tempted to use super glue

Deco plate is not screwed in? Bloody hell this is just sheer laziness… inexcusable at nearly 700$

You know, thats what is currently putting me off from buying this model. I really want it but the quality of the movement and decoration does not seem to be 700$ worthy. I mean look at the noob daytonas... for 700 they were worth every single cent quality wise.

Indeed. From what I gather the only good thing about this watch is a spectacular dial. The rest seems to be all crap. For now PPF 5726 seems to be the way to go.

Oww....and I was it's safe to scroll through this thread :inlove:

This is not the new version, this is the old version.

Take a look at the sub dials positions, also the moon is too small and there is no 8 hour marker.

This is not the new ppf, this is the old one from 2 years ago.

I managed to find this video on youtube showing the PPF 5712, it's in chinese but has english subtitles, it might be of use to some of you...
