Another awesome work by Jonj480 !
ARF V2 Base
He did the following:
Overall, the watch was very well built from the factory. I sent it to Jon to address the subtle issues as the bezel was too sharp for me and was a dead giveaway to other Gen owners. To add on, there are very subtle differences between a "Super" quality replica and Genuine watch that tell each other apart such as insert numerical plating, and overall fit and finish of the entire watch. Nothing beats R factory, and I'm a strong believer that you should never be so picky with how these reps come out of the factory. Unless you have the coin to pay for gen pricing, modding these watches with parts and labour to look and feel like gen, we shouldn't forget the true value in the rep industry lies within these companies being able to nail these pieces to 90% of the gen quality without the consumers having to dive too far into the franken route. Regardless, here's the watch next to my 116710, enjoy and thanks again to Jon!
- Tightened the bezel and bezel spring to the right pressure
- Reshaped and Polished the entire watch, specifically addressing lug profiles and bezel teeth sharpness
i've a question, why is your bezel insert has so many black residue like thingy in it? is it fading off or just when modding the stuff got into it?
