5711 3kf movement clone question

[Mindwatch]

Agree on this, although the usual disclaimers of HRKwatch not being a TD. (And if you don't have WeChat, he's also on instagram as hrk.watch but be cautious if you're reading this in the future, this info is only valid as of Oct 2022). But I've had several good experiences with HKRwatch, and unlike many non-TDs on WeChat he studied English in Canada, so you won't be communicating through Weixin translated text messages. Also, HKRwatch was able to get me a new 3KF aquanaut rubber strap directly from 3KF, so it seems like he's willing to deal with "parts orders" more than TDs are. But of course, be cautious, he is not a TD @Mindwatch so use your best judgement when dealing with him.

Thank you for the hint to HKRwatch and the explanation. I can do my own judgement here. Esp. when it comes to parts. Im amready in contact with him to check if he can source.

The 3k movement actually also have different rotor for the 390 and 330 engraved movement. And the rotor shape was actually correct as gen matching the number.
I think The movement parts are also replaced as well. The first v1 or v2 , the second hand swipe very smooth . On the new batch (i own 3 of them) , the second hand sometime tick faster and sometime tick like a low beat. As I read , this should be a well known issue on GEN.

Anyone who finds this thread should also read this thread about HKRwatch. Sounds like there may be some issues.

I'm in the same situation where I need a 3KF PP324 clone stem replacement. Anyone has idea where I can source this from other than HKRwatch?
