Audemars Piguet Roo BumbleBee by J12/ V3FC Diver Factory Sometime 2014

[nlnlnlnene]

I am really about to pull the trigger on the BB, on the other hand i am really considering the V3 FC diver.
Owners of both watches what do u recommend?

Eqallaf,

really depends on your preference.
I think visually, FC diver is a little more difficult to tell apart from genuine, but the bb may well be more impressive to look T.

Hey guys, I was wondering how long did it take for you guys to receive your QC pics from the date of purchase? It's been close to two weeks for me and they're still processing my order. Is that normal? Usually whenever I buy from PT the QC pics are sent within a week of payment being processed.

Send PT a Mail to see what is happening.

So they've sent me the QC pics, unfortunately there's a nasty scratch on the case back..

Sorry to hear that, but that's the point of QC! You found the error so you can get a new one before approving and final ship. No big deal should take an extra day that's all.

Ok here we go

OEM BB strap is always at the left.

Weight of the OEM strap is 13g

Weight of the rep strap is 11g

Watchhead only is 97g

rep BB with OEM strap and rep claps is 117g

And this is the gap with the OEM strap

Thanks Chris, you answered all my questions about the BB strap system.
You have to admit that the rep strap is pretty good.

 

[Miguel Piguet]

So besides the finishing and how more comfortable it is on the wrist. It's definitely a good rep strap and should get a thumbs up .....

Got the QC-pics today.

The BB rep strap is miles better than all other AP rep streps i've ever seen.

Late night delivery by Ken's mate. Thanks bros!
I'm just speechless that the rep of my grail is this good and that also applies to the rep strap. Crazy nice, 90% similar to the OEM in appearance I'd say.

On OEM.

Got mine today as well from Ken... The quality is far beyond my expectations. It even has properly-sized gen-spec bezel screws.

Oh nice, so they fit the oem bezel? I used my FC Diver bezel screws for my oem Rubberclad bezel. lol
Nice to know that there's another alternative.

 

[slaughterer62]

There is another alternative, yes.
