I've a Panerai 253 and are very happy with it, but unfortunately I've lost a screw on the right side (near Reg.). Can someone tell me where I can buy a new one or does someone have a spare one for me. I'm located in The Netherlands. Thanx for your help.

On the V3 the DW are much better then on the V1 and V2 version. Still it isnt as good as the genuine one, but for me and I think most of the people acceptable.

I'll take my first (and currently only rep) the IWC Fliegerchrono 3717 V3 with a Graf Louisiana Croco strap:

If you buy it now from Eurotimez you get the V1 dial with the correct lume, the V2 case with the blue-ish hue on it and as bonus far better datewheels than the one from the V1 or V2 reps.

@vmena: I think you're right. Here's a picture of my new 3717 Fliegeruhr from Eurotimez. As you can read above the first one was defect and Chris had to replace it. He didn't had it on stock and he ordered a new one direct from the factory in China. Within one week I got it. From the point I can see is that it has the lume and dail of V1 with straight markers on 3 and 9 number, the Double AR and case of the V2 and I think it has the correct ETA date wheels ?! I'm happy with it

Today I've received a new IWC 3717 from Chris as he promised. This one is perfect ! Working Chrono's, perfect reset to zero and it looks like this is a new version or so, bc it has the correct lume of the V1, the double AR from the V2 and the dot on the number 3 position is perfect horizontal aligned. Chris does what he has promosid. It took some time due to the circumstances, but he keeps his word and solves the issues. Thanx Chris !!!

Nice one ! I've a new 3717 on the way from Eurotimez, bc the first one the chrono didn't work. Have to wait now, hopefully it's here before christmas.

Here is another picture. How can I see if this one is the V1 or V2 and what do you think about the AR ?

Anyone know if there are multiple versions of the 3717 with single or non AR Coated ? I know the difference between de V1 en V2 dial but never read about the coating. I\'ve seen this one: Is this single coated or is it just how they took the photo ?

My first experience buying a rep. wasn't very succesfull. I bought an IWC 3717 from Eurotimez, but the chrono wasn't working. It's now out-of-stock by Eurotimez in the EU so he can't sent me a replacement one. He will give me a refund for the watch, but there's starts my problem. The problem is that the watch is intented as a gift from my girlfriend for my upcoming birthday and I'm now desperate looking for an IWC 3717 V1, double AR, 28 k movement and SS bracelet. And if possible with ETA datewheels. Is there anyone who is willing to sell his IWC 3717 and is resident in the EU ? I, and fore sure my girlfriend, will be very thankfull !!

I've just received my 3717 V1 and must say it's a beauty ! The watch is from Eurotimez, V1 with 28k new asian. The only problem is that the chrono isn't working. The upper button clicks but the chrono doesn't start. Date, time, Day all is functioning. I've sent an email to Chris about the problem, but no reaction till now. Anyone has an idea what this can be ? Do I have to do something to reset it or so or is my movement just broken ?

I've bought a IWC 3717 V1 from Eurotimez (hopefully I'm receiving it tomorrow ). I like to change the datewheels with the gen ETA ones. Does anybody know which watchmaker or member of this forum is willing to do this for me ?

The watch (dial,hands) looks very good, but how about the bracelet ? I see some spots on the photos. Looks like the finishing/polish isn't that good.

I've done that Toadtorrent. I read a lot that the print of the rep isn't as good as the gen. But I don't know how bad that is since there are a lot of people just want to have it as gen as possible. From the pictures here on the forum I see it isn't that bad. I've just ordered the 3717 with SS bracelet from Eurotimez. It's my first rep so I'm very excited how it will look like

I'm almost convinced to buy one rom EuroTimez. He has a V1 with an 28k A7750 movement. Can someone shows how bad or good the print of the datewheels are ? I cannot change them myself, so I like to know if it is really bad.
