On mine, rotor noise is there but its minimal. A little oil and it will be silent.

New patek philippe nautilus from ppf
- Thread starter starbox
- Start date
SOOOOoo the question is then... PPF new nautilus or that MKF6 new version? Can we do a comparison? From what i've understood, is that the MK6 dial is really good.. whilst the PPf one is not super good color wise.
Just got this guy in. Its true that dial colour is not the best but to be honest it doesnt look that bad also it has a little bit of green and grey on the dial. I tried to adjust the colour of the dial to be close to the human eyes. Sunburst is also there. It looks blue and purple because of the camera sensor. The sensor can capture within the range of RGB don’t wanna go into details as its a lot. photographers will know what I am talking about. The colour you see will depend on the monitor as well. This is taken on iphone7. [

Same. This is a hit and miss. My white dial rotor is completely silent. However, the blue dial I recently acquired to flip has some noise (minimal), and will need to be oiled to completely get rid of it.

Yes, from the pics I have seen MKF has the best dial color for sure ! But the DW is an issue.
I can only speak for myself, but I like PF when it comes to the blue dial.
QC for my watch ( I literally don’t give a shit about misaligned markers etc. - most stuff gets sorted afterwards @ the watchmaker + I was using a new TD )
You can see the markers @ 12 are F***** , lume is terrible and the DW they used is too small ..
And here with a new DW, aligned 12 marker and a relume
Makes a big difference if you ask me.
The rest of the markers have to be aligned aswell... will do that next time I visit watchmaker.
Take a look @ the pf thread. It’s not THAT terrible lol.

Mr.Marbella PF looks amazing! Beautiful. I’m doing the same mods with an MKF dial. Will post pics when complete.
Yes.
PPF and PF are different factories.
PPF might be backed by a powerful factory tho.

I still think Despite the darker blue dial the PPF looks the better watch, can’t put my finger on what it is, even your PF with mods (which is very nice btw) the PPF looks better quality (to me anyway)
Something about the marker shape and hands maybe

Thanks, may pick one up. Had an old JF AP diver and rotor was so loud with the Miyota
Mine is completely silent (and I've had plenty of noisy Miyotas in the past)

Same with mine. One of the few Miyotas where I didn’t have to silence the rotor.
So, last part of the "first impressions" idea,
As you may remember, I've posted the two watches with case back up.
Some people complained previously about how fake the jewels were in PPF, how bad the plates were.
Well, I'd say that the PPF movm is not that bad at all! And , according to the answers, it seems my guessing was on pair.
It's difficult to post a better pic of movements now but at least you got the idea how it is when you show it to others. The replica one sparkles light too and you only can see the differences in a macro view. The only thing that is more evident, IMHO, is the missing screw near the PP logo.
Here it goes another pic, just for your info:
Not bad......
I'd like to comment a little thing , though : as the rules dictated that you should NOT enlarge the pics, otherwise you wouldn't get the impression that the posts intended to give.....
I , as a poor newbie lost in this jungle , felt it's a surprise that you guys cheated all the way..... :rulez:
Ok, I understand that.....
Cheers :drinks_cheers:
Thanks for pointing this. Really appreciate.

That may be the best pic I've seen of the PPF. Most of the dials posted looks either too purple or too flat but yours look pretty spot on.
I still think Despite the darker blue dial the PPF looks the better watch, can’t put my finger on what it is, even your PF with mods (which is very nice btw) the PPF looks better quality (to me anyway)

PPF easily beats PF version.

Some more QC pics for reference.
The dial does not look purple as much as others i saw, but also not the gray/green as the gen, right?
Two things that I would love to get advice are before approving:
1) The coloring of the dial, it looks like there are "spots" of blue? or it is just the light?
2) The date is misaligned?
