4 problems to solve on this version :

1) dial color (better is the non-clone 1st version with the greenish tint)
2) rusted pinions
3) correct engraving on the movement (one engraving is missing)
4) chanfrains on the movement (the movement is sorely lacking in chanfrains on the contours of rubies and plates as opposed to 3KF)

Wainting for the V2...

RUST?

Yeah what's up with the rusty pinion. Is it same in the gen? Can't find a gen with the same hue of brown.

It is quite sad that PPF might have ruined their dial colour because their last batches were even closer to gen than BUFF (his dials are actually quite overrated).
Now that PPF might be too blue our only chance might be some replacement dials but I wonder if they would even fit the clone movement.
Sounds like quite a big hassle and it is a huge letdown considering the fixed crown and clone movement.

Also how is the fat bezel issue? I am not very well educated about Nautilus bezels so I am not too good at observing the bezel shape. Did PPF fix it too?
To my eyes the case looks pretty awesome and I hope that they also will release a 5711 with the same specs soon. Dial replacements should be much easier on this one.

Afaik GF/ZF/PPF 5712 has never suffered from the fat bezel issue.

Date numbers are just too thin for me, there is some variation in the gens but most of them have thicker numbers.

The rotor in the qc pic above is at 12:00; the caliber 240PS should have the rotor at 9:00 across from the crown.
