Review AP RubberClad Bezel Differences into Detail - Noob vs J12

[slaughterer62]

Just a caveat: the Mikey 1XAR crystal is 32.5mm and will not fit in the JF RC bezel, although a guru 32mm 2XAR crystal will.

I confirm

 

[Garuda]

Is this where you got your username, just wondering?
(From discussion about Pride of Indonesia's caseback - the bird/eagle):
But the real connection to Indonesia comes in two forms. Firstly, the watch features a large gold medallion with a finely engraved Garuda on the back. Garuda is a mythological creature in Hindu lore that is half-bird and half-human, and is supposedly the ride of the god Wisnu. Garuda is typically perceived as the manifestation of Wisnu in Hindu religion.

Garuda was the character from street fighter ex psx.

On my Rubber Clad Franken with the JF Bezel is the Mikey2008 Crystal installed... It´s not sooooo easy to do as the other ones but it Works as you see...

I had today a few GEN APs in my Hand again... And i have double check them, they are all only a little little bit over the Bezel...

I will get in the next Days an GEN Rubber Clad Bezel (New) then i will Post the Pics with an GEN Crystal on it... Then you Guys will see that the Crystal doesn´t sit sooooo High...

lol, I,also have a gen crystal and a gen bezel and all the other parts, looking forward to see it. The gen crystal is .4 mm above the bezel....
But as always, Valente posted that some divers have sunken screws and some don't...So at the end it doesn't really matter, you must like it it and for me I like it more when it is about .4 mm rised.

Nice work on the mods! Did you replace the crown with the gen like dial? I noticed the date window is now gen like.

The info is no doubt in here but I couldn't find it. Will a j12 bezel go on a noob case easy enough? Would I file down the screws or replace with j12? And I'll pop in a 2x j12 ar crystal.

 

[The_italian_boy]

Hey peeps, sorry to chime in... Can anyone tell me where i can get a new j 12??

 

[mysterio]

From any TD, just ask.

 

[The_italian_boy]
