New PPF 5712 with PP240 Super Clone.....

[mumum]

My modder is based in the US but most modders I see are in Europe/Asia.

Hi @aHero, would you be kind enough to share your modder name via pm? I am also based in the USA and need help on my 5712. Much appreciated.

The 25/29 is remaining the main "problem" of the sw, even though the stripes are too sharp to my eye.
HB corrects the 25/29, but the stripes are looking even sharper than SW unfortunately....

Just had to spend 600€ to fix and service my watch. They glued the SW dial on the movement and some glue jammed the gears. Also the movement was almost not oiled at all. Watch out where you mod your watch and definitely get a service. These movements are a ticking time bomb.

SW vs HB:

Fixed datewheel printing with very similar color to the current SW dial, seems like very little downside moving to this dial. A good W for 5712 modding. Anyone know when this is available? Guess Ill have to figure out how to contact HB

It’s already available, I’ve ordered one to compare it my SW and decide.

Price please?

 

[Reaps]

To me, "HB" dial looks like he just took the base dial plate of SW dial and did his own pad printing for it. The printing is certainly much better than SW dial but I want to see Hillbilly's price for this stuff. Knowing him he's probably asking for $500-600+ lol

It is 2500 CNY, same as SW more or less.

Great. That's a good price.

Hillbilly once quoted me 3500 yuan for a Buff meteorite dial. And this is without him letting me pick the dial. At that point I just threw my hands up.

Thx

I wonder if its color contains more blue than SW.

As I see, base dial is pretty close in terms of color, but let’s see. Date print is for sure a big improvement.

FYI

Newest batches of PPF 5712 stock now come with the new butterfly clasp

You may see this variant called "5712 V3 or V4", but I assure you it's the same 5712 with no changes except a swapped clasp

Does the newer clasp give a smaller range of size adjustability? Heard it was an issue on the 5811 reps with the new style clasps that couldn't accommodate smaller wrists

Yes, I heard that too actually. But I think there should be no issue quite frankly. Someone must have a really small wrist if there's an issue with the Nautilus.

My wrist size is 6.3in and I still have 5 de-attachable links on my Nautilius lol
