FYI
I've just heard from a WeChat dealer that PPF migh be redeveloping their 5712 v2 rep which might include the dial improvement, too. Fingers crossed but take it with a grain of salt.

I am almost certain they won’t. Last time many dealers said the same. But there weren’t any updates in the batch.
They say it to justify delays.
I believe the explanation Puretime gave about movement shortage, to be more accurate.

Haha, you may be right but I hope not. My dealer wrote that knowing I had no intention to order the watch. Anyway, time will tell. Long waiting time may depress potential buyers who may pass by a watch which could definitely be better.

If thats the case another plus for waiting hahaha...

Good things come in tune...

Over the course of the decade i noticed that rolex to patek are getting damn hard to get...

I remember 10-12 years ago you can just buy a sub right away with a discount of course hahaha


I think its not all ppf in house made...

But what its somewhat reassuring that tds and producers are taking some time hopfuly to give it there best.... a lot of online non td would grab this n try to pass v1 5712 as v2 i would assume

zooming into the QC photo hard to tell if it's engraved or printed. If it is engraved it's definitely shallow compared to previous releases.

Some Good News I just got my QC photos this morning and accepted

Is it just me or does the bezel seem thicker? I saw someone post theirs over on Reddit and the bezels seemed a bit too thick.

Not at all. This watch is exactly like mine which is the batch before this.

Looks like there is indeed a newer version:


lume on dial and hands does look rather yellow, but ill leave it to the experts to chime in.
IMHO they are the same photos since the launch of this new rep. I don't see any difference. It is now in pre-order because short delivery times are not guaranteed.

Damn those QC pics have the dial looking crazy purple. Why can’t they just use the v1 dial :(

Owners have told the v2 dial is not (so) purple in real life as in some pics. However, human perception of colors can be subjective.

ah well, still waiting and praying that the chinese will make a new dial that can replace the v2 one, also a bezel would be nice just for peace of mind :)
