NEW ARF DATE JUST 36

[GregH]

I contacted a guy on the internet that sell genuine dials, and he tolds me that he has a Blue dial (with roman numbers) for 500$ ... :| ...seems too much to me..

There's someones TD who can do triangulation with service and replacement? ( i mean i order the arf, send to him for service, dw replacement and dial, and send back to me)

250$ upward.

New arf date just 36

Thank you for the precious info!
So to have a top notch rep this could be the essential shop list at first

DateJust 36 SS 116200 Polished Bezel ARF 1:1 Best Edition Blue Dial on 904L SS Oyster Bracelet SH3135
$388.00 (is ok to start from this?)
Gen Date Wheel 100 (do i need date jumper too right? + 40$)
Service ... ??$$??

Do i need a gen blu dial? Do you know how the blu one quality is?

Get the watch then make up your mind about the dial. The DW is a must change.

Note: from Rolex, certain dial configurations will have roulette DW and other regular black DW from factory

See above catalogue pic for reference

I hope it helps some of you.

Ok so silver dial doesnt come with roulette date wheel, so all silver gens have the dw customized?

Just got mine in silver. Was impressed how well the watch was built. Basically I’ve got a slightly misaligned dial, with the railway track closer to the left (gap smaller than the other side), but it’s really hard to notice on the wrist. Also the coronet is a little closer to railway track than gen. After seeing a whole lot of gen pics, I would think this is gonna be the biggest tell after I change the date wheel.

Next step is to get a noob date wheel and have the movement serviced, hopefully I can enjoy the watch for many years to come without any problem.

I wish i have the fund to get a gen dial and roulette, but, hey, life has to go on with or without this hobby.

lastly, please, anyone knows if there’s a good modder or trusted watchsmith in southern Ontario area in Canada? Better within greater Toronto. Please pm me if you happen to know one. Thank you so very much.

White dial? Im not sure which one to get white or silver.

Is there a difference in white and silver compared to gen? Which is closer?

Who is selling them that cheap?

AFAIK ARF haven’t made a white dial

 

[Eugeneyu]

Mine is actually silver dial, with a very mild sunburst effect under natural light. I personally prefer the silver, which has sort of vintage touch. I would assume that the white would be more gen like, cause it’s just plain white without the sunburst.

 

[Eugeneyu]

Just got myself a loupe, stacked my iPhone camera on top of it, and got some up close photos with more details. Again, hopefully they’ll show, still not confident on uploading pics.

Just got mine. Gen Crystal, gen DW. The overall feeling is great

I just recognized the railroad is misaligned and the crown and the crown is placed too high

How much currently cost a gen dial? Thank you

My gen dial was around $300.

The ARF dial isn't bad but under the loupe you see some misalignments that aren't noticeable on the wrist.

its possible yeah, think you can kinda do what you like if you're willing to pay. if you look online at ones for sale, any pics displaying the date on an odd number are usually black so no roulette

 

[stufuse]

Arf dial is fine, silver one of the better one, the coronet is within rolex tolerance from what i read.

 

[stufuse]

Two friends have genuine in this model (different dial colour) I wouldn’t bother buying it in Gen now. No difference in feel really, just slightly more refined.

Sorry but can i ask whether you changed the datewheel on this?

 

[pedrostyle]

Hi guys, I have a question..what is the right code of the gen sapphire glass to be installed for models with RRR ??? ex: 25-295 ...? I saw that there are many models that start with this acronym.
I'm waiting.
Regards

When i remember correct it should be B25-295-CAR-V4-C1 because this have the correct AR Color for the Cyclope

Yes, it has a Gen DW installed
