Does the V4 finally have a matching Lume on the dial to the hands? Anyone has a clear pic for the blue dial?

Hi Folks,

I have to replace the broken black seconds hand of my white PPF v4 Nautilus. Do you think PPF sell it separately? If so which TD do you recommend for sourcing the hand?

I hope this is the right thread to post this but I have a QC question about my PPF V4 lume. It does look uneven on the edges of hour markers. Should I RL?

There is nothing wrong with your lume markers. The edges of the markers are dark/black in the white dial and hence will always look a bit dull compared to the rest of the marker/hand. I would accept the watch.

Why is there a need for V5? I think V4 is pretty much perfect just like Noob's V4 Daytonas

Maybe this is not a common view.

But I think the PPF v4 has a couple flaws they could fix:
- Bezel thickness
- Crown protrusion

Some "gen-feel" issues they could fix:
- Movement sound, rotor can be heard from a mile away.
- Bracelet - generally feels thin and flimsy. Maybe gen is the same, but hard to image.

Wdyt?

spencerswagu I actually appreciate the crown protrusion on the V4. To me, it's an improvement over the gen. The more recessed crown on the gen is quite hard to screw out.

has PPF ever improved or otherwise updated the silver hour indices on the blue dial since V1?

Blue color is not correct. The new 5712 have correct blue, we hope PPF will use that blue for new version 5711

+1. The 5711 v3 (purple hue) and v4 are both period correct. Patek 5711 Blue has gone through many variations over the years.
