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

[Db9s]

Pardon my ignorance. It seems that coming from other forums discussing the Patek micro rotor in great detail (even the clone perpetual calendar using this movement as a base).

The issue is that the micro rotor isn’t very efficient to charge the PR. Is there a Tungsten or heavier metal rotor mod that will fix this issue? I have only seen gold ones. But would be interested in a heavier metal modification

I think only gold ones exist at about 500 USD.

Does anyone know of any free sprung movements that aren't ACE? Some non-TDs are claiming some custom free sprung 240 movements that are not ACE. Not sure if they are referring to a modded PPF 240 movement to hide the regulator arm.

A while back there was some rep free sprung balances floating around in development, not much news on those since then. I think it was HB's telegram may have advertised them? I could be wrong- but thats likely this

I don't believe those were free sprung balance movements, they were movements with the regulator arm hidden.

No like there were aftermarket balance wheels being made. I’ll try to find it
