What do you guys think of these quartz ones with sec at 12? http://www.replica-watch.info/vb/showthread.php/ap-roo-safari-full-working-68784.html?t=68784

Thanks Mike! It will be in your way on Monday. It's packed up and ready to go!

Looks nice K!

New strap will certainly help I think.

Hmm... Maybe I should try one on first.

Do you think he is still around?

They are? That would be great! But the ones I have seen are a lot of $$. Where should I get it for $20-30? Thanks!

Changing the dial is easy. I normally having it done while I change out the dw.

Gen dials are worth it IMHO. They can be bought from $175-$325, depends on who you buying from. I bought two of my dials from thediamondcastle on the bay, other two from someone else on the bay. Keep an eye on the bay is the best way to go I think.

Guys, I'm thinking about getting a Safari sec at 12. I understand I will have to get graphite treatment and add the extra jewel, but... are all modders who work on AP can add the extra jewel? I know Sander can do it, but he seems taking a break from doing all these. Does anyone know if there is an even better version coming out? Thanks!

Thank you for the advice! I tried the duck tape today, no success. I turned so hard even ripped the tape. Tomorrow I will get gorilla tape.

Your B01 is nice, but I'm stuck with BCE because this gen dial. Maybe some day after I get the new Patek Nautilus and AP Safari

I see. I do like my v3. The only reason I bring up the v4 is because I'm thinking about checking out something I don't have.

If you are not planning on modding it, then v3 will be fine. Like I said gen Breitling dw is hard to find.

BT, what do you think v4 as a modding project? I have a gen blue stick dial that needs to be installed. I have a few v2 franken already.

The case looks better under the chrono pushers and the bezel markers are deeper (wrong position but deeper), the rider tabs look bad but they can be swapped out.

This is the one. It's certainly not a v3 (different looking bezel.

What do you think about the ultimate one BT? It looks like having not so accurate bezel marker placement and bad rider tabs, but other than that, it seems ok. With a gen dial installed, the watch should look decent.

For modding, I prefer the v2 with Asian date font because the case fits gen bezel better. Someone say the bracelet on v2 is better than v3, but I can't tell the difference. If you get a v2, it's hard to find gen dw though, so good luck with that. I have one but not selling

This is a v2 with Asian date font.

Guys, I think the watch has a separated rotor problem, which is an easy fix. However the caseback is so tight that I can't open it with my watch ball nor the watch case opener (didn't try too hard, afraid to scratch the ace more). Any thoughts on how to open it? It seems to me I need one of those Breitling caseback dies (they are spendy!!!). Thanks for your help!

Does it mean the newer rep is not 1:1 copy?

I love my IPhone 4. If you have small kids, iPhone 4 allows you to shoot hd videos right out of the box. Very good for candid videos. With IPhone 3, I believe you will have to get an app for it and it's not as good.

Once the gen bezel is installed, is it tight or loose when rotating it? Does it stay close to the case? How did you remove the rep bezel? Thanks?

According Joshua, the answer is yes.
