My Modded AP Diver FC

[youngandgenius]

Hi,

I am new to posting on the forum , but I should give it a try since I spend most of time searching the forums. I am newbie here so please be kind .
Up to this time, I really love the AP Diver Forged Carbon, but each version has their own superiority over the other, so I try to combine them.
I know better version will come in the future, but I think I will stick with this one for a bit.

The Specification:

Audemars Piguet Diver Forged Carbon (my Version)


Case : H-Fac Carbon Case - Better Carbon Pattern Appearance and no Lug gap
Movement : Tissot Powermatic 80 (80 hour power reserve low beat 21600) + With golden rotor ; inpired by http://forum.replica-watch.info/vb/showthread.php?t=167223 ; Thank you : D
Dial : AP Diver V4.1 Relumed by Vac including the AR Cyclop
Hourhand : H-Fac white relumed by Vac
Minute and Sec Hand: V3 ( The color is nicer)
Inner Bezel : H-fac relumed by Vac (Better font even thou it has a tiny yellowish tint, but bare eyes can't even notice it )
Outer Bezel : V3 (Same as H-fac, slight different in finishing, but pretty much the same)
Crystal : AP Diver v4.1 Sapphire (better than V3 )
Caseback and buckle : V3 ( Correct Engraving)
Case Screws : Sunken and Hand polished by 1010 Watch (Chris)​

All the work is combined by Chris from 1010 Watch Repair ,and finally you'll get this

Woaaalaaa! Hope you guys enjoy it.


I also want to say thank you to Chris from 1010 watch repair (The right watch guy for LA Area!). He did a great job and the finishing is very shiny.

Thank you,
y&g

wow that movement is a really cool idea

 

[nlnlnlnene]

Where did you get the movement? Did vac install it?

 

[youngandgenius]

nlnlnlnene , I bought a Tissot watch with Powermatic 80 movement, and asked 1010 Watch to install it. It is a direct swap.

Thank,

[nlnlnlnene]

That's very nice! How much was the tissot?

 

[youngandgenius]

nlnlnlnene , I think the cheapest Tissot model with powermatic 80 movement is the Carson model. It retails at $595

Quite a lot for a mod! You think it's worth it?

 

[youngandgenius]

It depends. I like it because the movement maybe more reliable.

Thanks,
