This is by far the fastest franken mod I have ever experienced. I'm so so happy it worked out with the date wheel upgrade and the gen dial. That PF is truly gen specs.
Thank you buddy in advance..

Amazing how the hands match the markers on the dial. These are not rep hands are they? PF?
As a matter of fact, I'm reluming the hands to match the markers.. as the rep hands are more green..
I was actually talking about the hands themselves, their Color and shine, not just the line. It's great that they're such a good match. Congrats mate, this is an awesome build!
Can someone please suggest which factory makes the best 5711 for both white and blue dials?

Well, cannot really follow the movement discussion. I bought my 1st replica PP Nautilus 3700 approx. 18 years ago in a shop in MBK Bangkok, containing a ETA 2892-2 with total watch thickness of 7,5 mm. So - if any of the "mills" will use a (if available) A2892 this problem should be solved.
I have seen it for less on ebay but was gone quite fast. I guess white or blue would be way more expensive and it won't last a second.For those who may be interested in the same Franken project, there's a couple of dials for RG at decent prices on Chrono 24 at the moment. Like this one (I'm not advertising and am not vouching for its genuineness, just FYI): https://www.chrono24.sg/patekphilippe/dial-nautilus--id10182059.htm
Unfortunately no white dial at the same price point :/
