New 5711 PPF Green dial
- Thread starter javicc
- Start date
Both 3k, these two have the correct non-fat first link and engraved movements, I purchased these 4 weeks ago before the mix matching happened.
As discussed, color is not too bad considering that you will never seen the GEN in real life
Just need datewheels and slight crown mod.

Wow, that green color is cool. I wish it had a bit darker and more metallic green tone in the dark reflection parts but still the color is great imo.
I knew the PPF color would be much better than the TD pictures we saw so far. Thanks for posting a good QC picture. I am waiting for new QC because I had to reject the first. To he honest the QC pictures I received the lighting was not good like yours. I am glad I ordered this, and I still have the 3KF one so I can do direct comparisons.

Sorry, not digging the PPF color, 3K better for me in pics. However TD QC lighting is often deceptive. Would love to see a in hand color comparison by a member. Given no resemblance to gen, it will come down to which shade of green members like (kind of a subjective decision).
For me the 3KF is too shiny and too much sunburst. Of course I can only evaluate gen pictures but there are not many out there.
hahaha they sent your failed QC pics to me then, just rejected because of the same reason...

Thank you for sharing!! Dial color is nice in video (both 3K and PPF colors are great for me, need to decide which you like better). Has the usual PPF issues - Protruding crown and thick bezel, I can live with the protruding crown (not very obvious from wrist distance). Had my PPF white/blue bezels modded, looked pretty odd when held next to a PF or 3K. Actually even 3K bezel is a tad bit thicker when held next to a PF but difference is not enough to bother me (have seen and held quite a few gens)
After a week in customs, it finally arrived today, the truth is that I'm happy with it, I share photos of different lights to check the dial.
where I am today there is no sun, but in these photos there is the street and interior light.

Getting To Know The Place
Guys I read several thread about the source who provides the correct DW. None of them told the name/factory tho... Do you know where I can find him/her?
