Diver inner-bezel lume flaw-- what can be done about it?
- Thread starter nlnlnlnene
- Start date
I believed thats a AP v2 which by default comes with thicker numbers. Goin told me its not possible to relume it as thick as the stock v2 fonts.This one was relumed by Vac and seems to be pretty close to the gen.

AP Diver is driving me nuts... its so damn good that everyone around me choose to believe its a gen.
Since everyone thinks so... i couldnt resist and send mine over to Goin today for a relume. Damn it.

Nice one bro, I can't wait to see the finished pics. Still thinking hard about reluming mine.
I believed many have seen Goin modded AP Diver V3 relume on his facebook. Shines brightly but number not as thick as per Gen still. Stock lume really quite bad though.
I think that is a different version as the DW looks to be circular instead of squarish. Could be a V2.5 since the dial font, markers, and bezel seem to be correct.

Hi guys, I am new to this forum but can anybody advice whether is there any mod to be done on a V2 model as the same picture posted by (Originally Posted by nlnlnlnene) on page 3 of this thread?
I have the exact same watch in swiss movement but thinking of letting go to get a V3 or V3.5 model as I can hardly figure out the date from from the circular DW due to reflection.
Any advice out there from fellow member?
Thank you for your time.
P.S. I am located in Singapore

Yes of course you can relume a V2! Well for the date cyclops, i'm not sure if the new V3.5 or BC mod will fit the V2 but it might be worth a shot.
Your nearest option will be sending it to Goin in Taiwan for the mod (relume & maybe cyclops change).
There's a number of us from SG here; and welcome aboard!

That is quite nice although it definitely doesn't fix the problem with overall shape of the 0's.
I guess this "flaw" cannot be fixed by our modders.
We all have to wait until the V4 or V(x)
I guess like all things, there is an end time. modders could only go so far. if we want "perfection" I guess the only way is to go Gen. Lets enjoy our watch and at the end of the day, what's important is We're happy with what we have and not having to spend thousands of $ to have this awesome watch which I think is really close enough to Gen . Good day everyone!
Still waiting for mine from Goin.
Actually that depends on whether u relume it to make it shine like a torch in dark or to make the numbers to look bolder in daytime as per gen.
I specifically wrote a chinese message to Goin on my request to bold the numbers. He responded early feb asking if i want bolder or thicker numbers.
Now waiting for his photos....hope he can live up to his name.
