best dial / closest to gen olive 5711

[Cheesegrater]

Which dial is actually the closest to the olive 5711?

Sponge said that PPF actually is the closest compared to BUff or SWF or 3K.

I like ODM the most. Btw, I have a Buff v2 for sale.

I have same opinion, ODM is the closest

Do you have a ppf dial for comparison ?

Nope, only Buff.

Nope, only Buff.

Have you seen the PPF green?
If you were to describe it, what's wrong with it?

I saw the gen green on YouTube and everyone says the green is actually almost nonexistent. Very very dark.

I saw the odm and buff and they are sharper and more sunburst it seems. And the ppf green is closest to gen.

I prefer the SWF

As for the 5711 rep dials imho they are of personal preferences rather than the opinions about"which is more gen spec" based on my experiences with a blue gen and SW/VSV/Buff/ODM/3KF/PPF rep dials.

Check out this thread on 5711...

First look: The VSV NAUTILUS 5711/1Am - A true superclone and possibly the best Patek rep ever.

@psychospike at ChazingTime has sent me the first example of the new VSV Nautilus and it may well be the best replicated out-of-the-box Patek ever. This thing isn't cheap but it's a work of art. You know I don't use the word Superclone lightly but this really is one. They start with the base...

The installed one is darker than the 3k and it’s closer to ppf it looks like.

The gen looks nothing like it does in pictures, which are staged carefully to capture the green tones. IRL it’s a very dark forest green that can easily look blackish or grayish. SW looks excellent in these pics but that doesn’t say much since it’s all about how it dynamically plays with the light.

I have SW V2 Green dial, it looks amazing and is very dynamic, I have seen pretty much all the shades of green in mine that I've seen in countless videos of gen I've watched.

Would love to see pics and/or a video if you want to show that off.

Could you pls be so kind as to share some pics.
Which TD sourced you the dial? How much is the green one?
Just have experience with many different blue ones..
Would be interested in a green example.
