Bp is an alternative, not on par with the old JF, but i think no one should give ARF money because that release is a big ass joke
Buy a Ginault and swap in some rep parts. Gen Swiss ETA, great crystal and DW. Rolex quality. They run about $1400.
I’ve been considering doing this. Which hands and dial would be considered ‘best’ for the eta?
Does the Ginault accept gen crystal?

Depends on which Ginault you buy and what look you want to create. That one is the newest Ocean Rover II which has a ceramic insert. There are are dozens of combinations you could make with rep or gen dials, and rep hands. The member who owns this one ultimately put a Ginault Kermit insert on it hence the maxi dial. I think pretty much any combo would look great, the watch is a relatively inexpensive masterpiece. I like the look of that one as it sits. It should take a gen crystal but I wouldn't spend that money on it, the stock crystal is great. It should have a rep crown, caseback, and clasp to complete the conversion. I had high hopes for the ARF 16610 but the only thing I'm still interested in there is maybe the hands and dial for a Ginault conversion. I think it would be a slam dunk. The other parts I mentioned should be swappable too. Probably just use the whole ARF bracelet.
hi guys I have read that the new Arf 16610lv is considered by many to be disgusting ... so I wanted to ask what is the other alternative for this reference? The BP?
I thought you could get shot for making such bold assertions on the rep forums...The ginault is a tc case btw so yes ,same case as the last “TC” V7x , of course gen spec 100%
we all know tc is ginault!
