BP Factory Rolex 16710 GMT Full Review VS Gen

[Vvvlllooo]

Wow nice

Anybody has tried to fit a super jubilee 20mm from an ARJ DJ 36 to the BP 16710?


Someone with both parts- watch and bracelet can give it a try?

The curvature of the end links will be wrong creaking a gap in the center at the “6” and “12.” The 36mm case has a tighter curve than the 40mm case does and the endlinks are designed specifically for the case curvature. So a Jubilee off a 36mm case will not fit a 40mm case even tho both lugs are 20mm.

I had an ARF DJ 36 oyster on my gen 16710 for a while and the fit was flawless. Unfortunately I don't have any closeup pics of the SEL to case fit but I don't recall any gaps.

The jubilee may be a different story. You can do some careful sanding and grinding on SELs to improve the fit. I've done that at times, but if you take too much off anywhere all is lost, lol.

Fitment looks amazing on that pic and the 16710 with PCL is amazing and getting the easy link sounds so good.

Is there a better Crystal available?
Is there a better Dial available?
Are there any hands that are better and fit the ETA?
Better DWO? will a old TC DWO work?
Any Modifications you recommend.

Adrian is a great Machinist and if I give him the parts and a plan he can probably do it

It will take a gen or gen-spec crystal if you are willing to use two gaskets. I have done that a couple times, it's detectable only if you know to look for it.

IDK of a better dial short of a gen or aftermarket/refurbished gen. Look at eBay vendor fiery gems

BP hands are very good IMO. Doubt you will find much better for ETA.

You can use any gen-spec DW as an overlay, including a gen.

As far as mods, if you want the case and bracelet to be gen-spec send them to tripdog. Let the master work his magic. I hope to own one of his someday.

Cheers bro.

Here are the SEL(s) on a stock ST3135 case:

ARF 63600 Jubilee (1.8mm springbars)


ARF 97200 Oyster (2.0mm springbars)


Gen 502T Jub Endlinks (2.0mm springbars)


Gen 93250 SEL (2.0mm springbars)


Notice there is a slight gap on for the ARF Jubilee and that's due to the curvature difference from the DJ vs SUB...

Great pics bro, the ARF super jubilee looks good to me. Under the bezel I could easily overlook that gap.

Has anyone ordered the Pepsi from Trusty in the last few weeks chaps? Wondering if this is the updated version. I see it now states a 12.1mm caseback.

That one is the DG3804 CHS, a somewhat short run attempt to make the DG3804 accommodate CHS. About 12 different models were initially released but within a couple weeks all but two were de-listed.

Ironically, there was a 1675 in the initial release, which has the GMT hand on the bottom in gen. So in this model, the "1675 CHS" is actually ICHS.

BP released DG3804 CHS GMTs

I rejected both samples of these models I bought based on videos of the hands movements I got from the TD. Links to those videos are in the thread above. I don't recommend this purchase, the movement is questionable.

Much obliged, appreciate the info.

What would you currently recommend? Looking to pick up a Pepsi / coke bezel GMT ( not six digit )

Best place to window shop is non-TD TSWATCH. They keep the website pretty accurate to current availability.

Find one you like and send the link to your TD.

Great piece being offered by Nembo right now. DG2813 ICHS. This is a 16710, not a 1675 as stated. The 1675 never was a GMT II, and never had white gold hour surrounds. If this is around very long I might grab it, you can't beat the price for a BP GMT and a reliable movement.

Which TD did you order this from?

I just got these from Trustytime, link to the watch.
Looks pretty decent to me. And there is no engraving.
Thank you to KJ2020 and muiramas for your advice and great shots of the watch which made me pull the trigger!

Frustrating. I’ve created an account on Repgeek but have not received an email to activate the account twice now! Therefore I cannot see the post.

Where is Nembo based?

The one I ordered is from the link Andrew sent me. KJ2020 said it was better than advertised.
Waiting for delivery.
