I've gotten a reply from Andrew, his current Forged Carbon are from H-Factory and is of the latest Version which he didn't mention which one.

I'm still waiting for Ryan's reply.

New version will be released very very soon, I'd hold off to see what it's like and from what I've read and seen it will be good

Thank you sharrkey! I'm still new with reps and I'm reading up to understand more.

Diver seems to be a better option as the lesser complication, the easier to pass of as Gen and lesser issue. Haha.

I'll wait for your expertise review @sharrkey on the FC V5 before committing.

Just read about the V5 SS Diver, seems to be a disappointment taking in comparison with the 4.1

Been a long time since we talked about HFAC Diver.
Just spent a hour resetting the keyless works of the HFAC Diver movement.
I thought would snap some pictures for your viewing pleasure (LOL):

I am reserving my comments on this movement, except to say I am replacing it with a Swissy.

Oh yeah, do not try to use a 2824 key with this movement. It will not work.
Quiz question:

Why not?

:thinking:

;)

Either an ETA 2824 (easy drop in) or an ETA 2846 (it has the 21,600 bph as per gen Diver). The only problem is the 2846 is thicker, and might not be perfect fit, but I think it is worth trying.

Just one ominous word of advice:
after taking the keyless works apart and examining all the parts, I advice all HFAC Diver owners to do one thing: never take the key out.

the 2824 is 4,6mm thick and the low-beat 2846 5,2mm...this is very tightly or?

With the anti-magnetic shield on the movement, it gets kind of tight in there. There is a risk of the rotor being frozen if it is compressed by the shield/caseback. The way around it is to thicken the rubber gasket under the caseback, if need be. An inelegant solution, however.
