Gauging interest for a APROO caseset

Brand spanking new from AP directly.
they advertise it when they have AR. And when they do it's only on the inside. Like on the 44mm and diver.That is very odd.... because all the technicians, and service centres, gen parts that I receive are all AR on both sides...... I am only referring to the ROO that I am making.
Could you post photos of the crystals with non orthogonal light source? Just to be clear your case set is for 42mm not 44mm ROOs?
They are for 42mm. We will just send the crystals in to test the light transmission sowe will know once and for all.
I would AR them anyway. It's easy to take off AR and if people want AR they don't need to ship it out.
Glass sample is on the way, we should have that ready and confirmed once we receive it and do a test install.
Rubber gaskets are ready to be made into samples, just need to transfer payment and waiting for everyone to get back from holiday.
Caseset maker has been confirmed and we will proceed to make a sample to test the fitting. Most likely we will make the bezel first to make sure the screw holes are correct, then proceed to the other parts.
Overall everything is proceeding according to schedule.

It has been confirmed that the glass has AR coating, albeit very thin just as we suspected at the start. Will show comparison pictures once the sample arrives.
Well, as promised here is the bezel just out of the CNC, so it's not finished. We can't sharpen the hex holes as our tooling can only cut at 0.5mm radius for the edges, so we are going to enlarge the hole for the sample so we can do some test fittings. Hopefully this works out ok, then we can be sure the holes are correctly spaced.
W O W!!!
Hey Buffe, why you will build homages instead of a replica? I mean, why you're not printing AP logo in the dial? you will sell them better and you will be taking a big market share from Noob...
