Nautilus Comparison PF vs. MKF

[Cadows]

In any case PF is better IMO

I agree PF is better. I hope Genta2014 will let us know which TD he got that PF from.

Too bad,because I find the watch really good.Mines comes from Shuang,but all the TD have the same.

I purchased a Nautilus 5711 PF from PureTime and now waiting on QC pics. I will post pics here soon and appreciate any advice with issues on it. Hopefully it will have aligned hour markers.....

tangokilo I don’t see anything wrong with it. I would accept it.

Did he ever tell you what TD?

Thanks Cristobal!

Any other comments from anyone?

What does the image with the pressure test indicate?

Water resistance?

That indicates the accuracy of your watch. If your watch is keeping track of time correctly or if you are losing seconds or if the watch is gaining seconds.

Thanks again Cristobal!

I started a new post about this sorry about that. I wasn't sure anyone would see this thread anymore

Never found out which TD he got it from.

That's the second picture of a PF Nautilus 5711 I've seen today. PF seems to be improving the placement and alignment of their markers.

gilrob agreed. this PF is growing on me now.

tangokilo watch looks amazing. I'm not the PP expert, but if they where my QP ill take it.

Thanks Genta2014. I got mine from PureTime. Seems like everyone agrees the hour markers are much better now on the PF. What are your thoughts on the QC pics?

Thanks Gilrob, with your thumbs up on the QC pics I'll place the order and get this one.

Go for it. Once you get your tracking number, you'll be checking on the status 3 or 4 times daily, maybe even more. That's how I was when I ordered my first rep. My suggestion is to do date wheel overlay mod, it'll make your PF Nautilus 5711 look more gen like. That's up to you though, see how you like the current date fonts before you decide. Congratulations.

Thanks Gilrob I appreciate your feedback and I think you are right I'll be checking the delivery status every couple of hours!!

I may do the date wheel in the future but will just enjoy it first. I read that the fly wheel in the Miyota movement can be noisy and that some lubricant will quiet it down a little. Any idea what lube or oil to use? I plan to take it to my local watch repair guy that has worked on high end watches for many years and have him oil it but want to tell him a specific oil if necessary.
