  6. BP 5004 Gen vs rep

    in The IWC Area

    Posted

    As far as I know, this was not discussed before, so please let me ask:

    Since the caseback of the BP 5002 seems to be more accurate than the 5004, has anyone done a swap? Can anybody confirm that it would fit? :g:

    the 5002 looks more like the real deal, so it´s worth a try.

  9. 5004 BP questions

    ....this is not a "who has the best 5004" thread, and before you ask: yes, I tried a search...

    I read on several dealer sites about the updated hands. can anyone please enlight me what that means?

    does it mean that the hands have now correct length, and the balancer of the seconds hand is correct, too?

    is the date wheel still a little recessed also on the newest models?

    thank you very much!

    best,J

  13. Concepta Portu case vs gen case

    in The IWC Area

    Posted

    Are you sure about this?

    If yes I'll open one acclaim now to one person that sold me rep cases , sold as genuine .

    I bought two 3717 cases .

    Mate, what he meant is, that Concepta is using the normal "Cartel Portu (3714, not 3717 !!!) rep cases for his Portu projects.

    If you bought a 3717 from him and he stated it is gen, then it IS gen :victory:

  23. New ceramic submariner

    Very interesting thing. I owed both gens ( the ceramic is gone...), but I cannot agree with you in that point. When you say, the case is ugly, then yes, but cheap?

    The fingerprint thing is true...PITA! Always cleaning, cleaning, cleaning...

    Maybe the AD had not "the cartel version" or the "best" version... :-)
