Hi Guys, just bought a SD43 ARF V3 as well. OMG, loving it. I had a genuine Deepsea which I ended up selling, just couldn't carry it off. I should have gone for this instead!
The rep is so good. LuoIsBoss where did you manage to get the dial from? Any pictures of the end watch? I'd love to change the dial and xtal on mine also. Thanks

Looks very good. Only the cg’s let it down really but only we anal guys will notice that. Great work!

Yeah! and thanks!

- Do you think that the crownguards can be reshaped? or would that cause some trouble?

I need to get a genuine dial! How do I go about doing this? Can you guys recommend anyone? I would like to change the Xtal as well.

Gen dial is a b***h to source! and expensive as hell, expect around 1300-1500 EUR and Xtal is around 500 EUR as well.

So I wish you good luck!

They just need opening slightly to show all the crown. Noob got it perfect which is why my franken had noob case and bezel as their teeth were perfect. Wish I still had it!

Looks great. I’ve marked on the pics where cg’s need trimming to.
