But….an answer…..if i have a buff dial……it means that my watch was done by buff..right?

and why he done only a part of the work tooking all the money?
no moon disk… o cap pinion.. no engraved movement….

boh?

Half scammed ?
If you have a Buff dial, it means someone installed a Buff dial. Again, Buff is NOT a person. Buff did not install the Buff dial in your watch. Buff is a factory of parts (dials, hands) that dealers and modders source.

Its ok . We all learn from mistakes. And that is also why i always tell members dont just look for the cheapest offer . There are reasons why some dealers could offer such a low price as 1.5k for a full build 5712. They just cheat people on the parts and modification since most people dont have the knowledge to identify what is what.
Buy from people with knowledge.
As we like to say, “buy the seller.” Spend a little more money for the peace of mind to work with someone trustworthy. If the deal is too good to be true, well…it probably is!

Thanks to everybody……. Now it will go straight to spongebob😅😅
I would suggest you try to sell the watch on m2m platform for a bit more than stock price because of the buff dial. Then buy a whole new build from Ctime or some other trusted dealer that does mods. Its the safest and cheapest option, probably fastest too.

Or procure the latest SW dial and decide which one you prefer.

For modded watches you need to discuss with the dealer directly.

Hard to solve an issue with someone that communicates right up until he’s in position of your parts then goes completely MIA. All the while his WhatsApp account is daily active and he’s communicating with others on other forums. I’m patient and don’t hassle but it seems he picks his work and flicks others to the side. I’d accept a response even if he lost the parts it’d be good to at least know, I had cover those costs for my own customers. careless. Tbh some of the work I’ve seen isn’t worth it.
Hope you have better luck 😊

A few years back, it took about 3 or 4 months just to get a refund from him for a date wheel that did not fit right on my MKF 5711. I'm not complaining though, since he let me keep the date wheel. Perhaps I can use it later on, if I knew what dial it was meant for. LOL.

Sorry to hear about that. Did you try to reach him out recently? He had RL problems last year.

Didn't see anyone talking about these, forgot to post it but a friend of mine who works closely with HillBilly received these pics from him earlier this week. Seems they've put in a more greenish base? Only confusing part is the fact they have it labeled "SW Second generation" against a "SW first generation". Not sure on the validity but these have supposedly come down the chain of local Chinese modders to him.

According to my knowledge it should be SW v3.
