Good point. I suspect those dials with 25 and 35 minute dots we recently saw from WeChat sellers might be gen.

Hmm yeah. I don't know for sure. On the pictures there are two dials.

Is the one you extrapolated a gen dial or?:

Based on my little photo superimposition investigation I can confirm that the hand holes and the moon phase cut of a presented SW v2 custom dial are on the same position as on the gen.

Background pic: gen watch, red drawing: reference points of the SW v2 dial.



I asked HKRwatch, he has confirmed that the SW dial is for the V2 PPF 5712!

I'm a little bummed the 5712 didn't come with a pin pusher like the 5726 did. Sim card pin tool will have to do!

I have received my today as well, funny enough I don't see any purple
Yeah, I thought the same about mine, although it did look purple when taking a pic.

This rep is really nice, so should I be worried about getting robbed in big cities wearing it? :ROFLMAO:

I've just ordered one through Jtime, I was expecting to wait a long time for QC. But he said to expect to wait 7-10 days. I'll keep you posted

I've been checking the time accuracy on mine, it runs well but I've noticed that the minute hand drifts a bit, one day is aligned with seconds and one day it isn't. Do you guys have a similar issue?

Absolutely for mine too. It is not accurate and I have noticed that this happens much more when the charge is at its maximum.

Interesting, so it's just a quirk of the movement. I've googled around and it seems like it can be fixed by a watchmaker on other movements but I think I won't bother with mine and just enjoy as is.

This is interesting. I just got my QC for the dial made by SWF, what are your guys thoughts?

I think the dots at 25 and 35 are missing because they use a stamping tool made for a regular nautilus that has applied markers in those positions. It also looks like there are additional unnecessary dots next to the 12 markers and on the small seconds.

Interesting. Hard to judge the shade of blue, would need to have pics when you have the dial in hand

But it seems you're missing the Dots at 25 and 35. I think this issue was mentioned earlier if I'm not wrong

Yeah, its really weird. Not sure if i will GL this, since this is would add a weird flaw. No idea, why they would do this.

I would rather keep the stock dial than this. It’s way too obvious with these missing dots and the extra dots on the small seconds and at 12.
This is disappointing.

The markers are really nice though. They are rounded and look like they could be white gold plated.
