Hopefully he still has them in stock bro. I ordered on 8/15, got QCs on 8/17 and received the watch in the US today 8/30.

I’m hoping the long waits for this watch are over. I feel terrible for people who had to wait months

Thanks. Andrew actually told me it is in stock.

You must have been really lucky! That was quick for this beauty, i was just ordering one from Trusty. Before that i was wondering between this ZF 5712 and PPF 5726. now i've decided for both from Trusty :)

He just replied me with an automated answer: "Factory just replied that this is available"

How was your answer? TvT

What's the difference? I have the PPF version.

They are 2 different models: 5712 from ZF and 5726 from PPF. I was not mentioning 5712 from PPF since ZF took over production for like a month already ;)

Anyone here can share their experiences with servicing this? The glued on deco plates puts me off in buying one as it seems it can become loosen during transport and usage. Also, do we simply ask the watch maker to "glue" them back? This is providing they can take them off without damaging the movement.

I think ifyou really want to own this model, it would not be a big problem, after receiving it i would rather bring it to a trusted local watchmaker to have a service done! Costs about 150€ by me in Germany. Double check is never too much

My watch Smith charges around the same in UK. But I haven't checked with him whether he has seen or worked on one yet. Thanks for sharing your experience but I might go with the 3KF Green Nautilus first and change the DW or get the PPF.

Is tempting to get the 5712 since I subscribed to this thread haha
