New PPF Nautilus 5726, full functions and the date does not look sunken

Does the dial of the gen seem thinner from what you can see ?

Yes the dial of the gen is thinner - explains why on the gen the DW is more flush. This has been confirmed by a member who had a gen dial installed

A gen in the wild (under artificial light ) - Burlington Passage London

I also just got my PPF 5726 Blue from Trusty and at first I thought he sent a wrong dial, I thought it was grey hehe.

So what’s your opinion on the blue dial of the gen in RL? Is it the same as our PPF?

 

[Mfactory]

I had the opportunity to compare mine with a second hand one exposed in Burlington Arcade in London and they look very much the same under the same light.

Didn’t take any pictures but will most probably pass by again earlier next week and take few shots if it is still there

So do you think the 5726 PPF blue dial is close to Gen Color in RL? Because I just got mine and I think the dial color is really off. Thinking of selling it and will just get the gray or white dial versions.

The white dial version is closest to gen. In the gray dial version the silver on the subdial is way too shiny as people have pointed out earlier in this thread.
The blue dial should’ve looked like this:

The blue dial is really off based on that video… thanks for sharing!

Are there any custom 5726 dials available? I'm not sure if I missed it but I haven't seen in any thread. Been looking a white one.

The PPF white already looks great. Doubt there will be an aftermarket one.

I have a VC fiftysix complete calendar with a decorated Miyota and I experience the same thing, even after a service. I think I’m just going to treat these watches like a manual…

I've since tried several times to use the watch as an automatic but even when worn every day, it won't keep enough power in the main spring to make it last through the night. I get 45is hours from a full wind, but the rota doesn't seem to add anything - it just stops after a couple of days. As you say, best treated as a manual. I wonder if the 5712 super clone movement is the same...

Just wondering if there is a custom one with corrected geneva box for any color

I personally never experienced that with the PPF 5726. Fully working throughout the night.
I am not an expert but It might be a defect of the specific butch.

Just got mine on M2M sale. What an amazing rep! It feels legit and the band is not slinky like the 5711s. The white dial is beutiful in the sun and really the only noticeable flaw is the extended "GENEVE" cartouche that is impossible to notice anyway. Feels great on the wrist and is one of my faves ever.

Haha, I'd reject it at my AD and wait for another X years.

ok, so the white dial version is much better than the blue dial ?
Thus the white is the best 5726 ?

If your definition of best is closest to gen, I’d say yes.

But I prefer the blue dial, which is what I have. So to me, the blue dial is the best.

Indeed

Ah yes, I mean closest to gen.

But mechanical wise it’s not a clone movement rather a miyota, unlike the ppf 5712v2 correct?
