Hi Keylog and other guys

I saw number 31 on DW today and I thought it is strange.
Other DW is same? Or only my product print result is wrong?

I bought it initial stage at last year :)

For the record.. 2XAR on a Nautilus is not an upgrade to make it closer to gen. The gen Nautilus does not come with 2XAR crustal.. just so you know.. most people are replacing the DW to make it closer to gen, then they change the crystal to 2XAR which puts you back a step in that case.. some people realise this yet still do it.. I'm stating this here for the ones that think they are making their rep closer to gen in changing the crystal. That is not the case with this upgrade.

Yeah, this. I bought the 2xAR for the PF because I wanted it. I did the same thing for one of my white gold gen Day Dates. Rolex Service would have a cow if they saw it, but I wanted the double AR on it.

2xAR is not genlike for either the Nautilus or Day Date.

Please don't. The gen Nautilus has no AR

What he said. I don’t get all that double AR Fuß anyway be it on Pateks, APs or Rolex’s.. it doesn’t make your watch better, en contraire, it makes it look even faker than it is :giggle:

Sorry to say as this modder rather to be low profile
He just doing me a favour

This clearly wasn't a PF relume - PFs are 'notoriously hard' to relume as told by the expert modder Natas78 . The lume plots even look too thick to be from PF markers, my bet is that these are JJF markers or a different dial - besides the date wheel is still too small. So the reason the 'modder' likes to keep a low profile is that this watch wasn't even relumed. As much as I admire the markers being very white, it helps no one on the forum/thread to make things up.

Just my two cents.
