Enquired about getting new Dial/hands to transplant into a PF case - then I’ll be finished and happy with my 5711 reps. If I need to buy the whole watch then do be it!
are you sure it is a PPF V2 or the PF V2?
since the bezel look like to be spot on!
I doubt they release the PPF V2 that soon...
and also the dial colour is hard to see !
You're likely right. Agreed about everything else. The issue is the cost. You're looking at spending close to $1,500 for the mixing and matching to acquire the ideal rep. Then, a few months later, a new version is released addressing the issue
That’s not entirely right. I have bought a ppf and a pf.
Did the hybrid mod and sold the ppf base watch with the pf dial & hands within 2 hours - 410€.
So the total cost was maybe 500€ ( + - 50-100€ I cant remember ).
I don’t think ppf will change the bezel & crown issue anytime soon.. And Even if they do there will be a new issue - thicker case, bad dial etc.
If you wait for the factory to bring out the perfect 5711 rep you might aswell start saving for the Gen.

i would like to know that pf bezel and crystal can be installed on the ppf?
Yes, that's indeed the issue. Problem is, the bezel is quite a biggieHas anybody even tried fixing the crown? Perhaps shortening it with a lathe?
I believe the thickness of the bezel is because they haven't got the chamfer-angle correct(?) Which on itself shouldn't be that difficult of a fix for the factories either.
Atleast PPF is making steps in the right direction.

My ppf has a modified smaller crown. The crown was shortened with a lathe. It can be done
Maybe I’m incorrect, but isn’t the bezel like 2 mm thicker than it’s supposed to be?
