Here is our newest build. Everything is exactly like the other build, but the dial is PPF, with reshaped, white gold plated hourmakers and of course relumed to match the hands.

PPF doesn't have a cloned movement like the 3KF does, correct?

I have the OOTB PPF v4 and the difference is pretty impressive. I love it. Congrats!

Aa the year comes to an end, any changes to the best components for modding?

I am looking to get a base 3kf and upgrade: dial, handset and dw.

Haven’t seen anything new and existing. 3KF base is still the way to go.

I got a PPF white gold Plated dial and buff handset for sale

While I get the 'crown protrusion "flaw"' I'm a bit miffed to comprehend the 'bezel issue.' The claim is that it's too thick, but I'm grappling with where! Too thick when viewed to the side? (which is not what I think you all mean) Or is it too thick face on? If the latter, I struggle to see it!

For those that it jumps out, what do you see? Have done a few searches to no avail. Appreciate the input!
