PF case (incl. crown), PPF Bracelet, PPF Dial, PPF Movement (hands+DW)
if you are planning to go fully maniac on a build try to source a gen DW and a gen Dial and slap both into the PF/PPF hybrid onto an engraved 3KF 324 SC clone and you get the best what money can buy before you spend over retail for the gen.
What I gathered from the video....
- ppf case bad cnc,
- ppf calender is wrong( 3k goes clockwise, ppf is counter clockwise, geniue one should be like 3k, which is clockwise
- when you change time, the seconds hand stops on ppf but it keeps moving on 3k
- also 3k's band is very flexible ,and smooth
- also the movement is made better in 3k's one
- the band in ppf is not that smooth( when opening
- also this center screw in ppf is fake, it is a sticker on the 3kf it is real metal ring like genuine
but 3k so many features are the same to the original watch but I agree with many the PPF still got better blue/grey dial

Thanks! So if I understand this correct, I can basically just buy a PF case and then drop the PPF movement straight into it with the dial and hands still attached and put the PPF bracelet on, and I’ll be very close to good. Rather than pay $400 for a modder to shave the crown and other things, it makes more sense to just buy a PF donor watch for similar cost as modding and use that instead. Am I right?

From 2 /3 years also the gen stops the second hands
The band of PPF it's absolutely same to the Gen
Ok about movement, the case should only make bevels and re polish and satin the bezel and it's absolutely perfect also for the maniacs of that little details

The 324 S C movement does not hack. It's replacement, the 26-330 S C, does.

BTW, guys, need your opinion - which is better: 3KF or PPF? Thanks for sharing
Please carefully look at the HD pictures of these reps at TDs' sites, compare them with those of the gen and decide for yourself.
Hi! I will waiting for compare
I haven't bought them. Decided to wait.
the images dont load for some reason. here is the imgur - https://imgur.com/a/Y5Uh0Tu
This is a feature, you can see in Wikipedia. A "hacki watch" is a moment when the crown is pulled out to set the time, the ticking of the watch is suspended and the watch pauses, hours, minutes, and seconds. This allows you to set the watch exactly to the second. This is seen by many as a "good feature" to provide more accurate in time setting.
If your gen nautilus 5711 stop the second hand when crow pulled-out . It belongs to 2019 series, which is upgraded this feature from PP.

Yes, i know what a hacking second is, I just didn't know that recent nautilus had moved away from the 324 and therefore now had a hacking second
Please help me understand, I looked at these pics compared to the gen and I cant figure out what you are talking about.... EDIT: OH I see.. I kept looking at the first link as in the outer part, you guys mean the middle part! It was driving me nuts for SO long hahaha
