By the way, I have a very tiny wrist 5,9" and it fits so PERFECT!
I was so scared because I am so skinny. But OMG!!!! It's stunning!

I bought it from Variatio Delectat from this Forum, and he put a GEN strap, LOVE IT! <3

Very nice watch DrTroy. But when you've already spent a shitload of money on the gen strap I would spend the extra $50 and buy a 4.5 teeth V1 shiny bezel. Would make it look even better and closer to genuine model.

today, here is mine, just received it, HBB RG V6 on GEN Rubber, it's amazing!!!

I totally agree, it's actually my first REP, but I'm not sure where to buy this bezel. and also do I have to change the H Screws as well?

I recon all the TDs can get them but I asked a few TDs who said NO. Maybe cause they consider it a small order or don't make much money off them, dunno. I bought 3 matte black ceramic V1 4.5 teeth from Toro (along with 2 Hublot watches), then he sourced me another 3 shiny black ceramic V1 4.5 teeth in a separate order a couple of weeks later.

Yeah you need the H screwdriver and you can use the same screws. You have 4 longer screws and the screws @2 + @4 are shorter. It's not hard to switch at all but you need to be careful as the screws scratch rather easily. I'm thinking about writing a little tutorial for people doing it for the first time with a few tips. Just cause I know I was shit paranoid to damage anything the first couple of times I did it.

Here is my Black Magic (which is getting croc strap within a few days) with V1 4.5 teeth matte bezel
PS: Disregard what looks like a red line on the side photo, there's no mark there. Something happened with lighting on the iphone photo, dunno

Do you have one shiny black ceramic for sale? :)
what about the glass? is it sure it will fit back?

and also have to be very careful with the dust I guess...

I bought all these bezels for my current watches and the watches I am 100 % sure I will be buying. But contact Toro or your regular TD, shouldn't be a big deal :)

Nothing to worry about dust, glass stays there when bezel is removed. So whatever dust you gather will be under the actual bezel.

Amazing!

Thats a good idea and a good "H" screwdriver. Maybe one day i will do the same :D but i dont want to destroy them because i have no talent with "H" Screws lol

I have already written 2/3 of a "guide" for bezel switch with the approach I figured out was best (after slightly messing up a few screws on my first attempts). Will finish it asap and post it... but today it's Saturday and beer drinking with the guys. First things first! :D

PS: You should all buy both H screwdriver + a watch toolkit on ebay for the non H-screws. Regardless of whether you plan on switching bezel or not. There are always some loose screws on brand new watches. Tightening all screws should be the first thing you do on a new watch before you wear it.

What about using any blue LocTite?

I use it on all my knive screws. Is it too much on the match screws??
