I've got them sussed out. I'm 95% sure I can get them. I'll keep you posted.

I'm tracking down gen hands and dial for mine at the moment, about a 1-2 month wait. I just wonder how good the rep case/crystal actually is compared to a gen and if it's worth it. I'm heading down to check one out and get a good look at the case and cystal at an AD on the weekend.

Cheers.

Where is the best place to purchase those OEM Kevlar's? They are niiiiice.
-
I beleive you'll have a hard time finding a dial. PM Concepta about a project. I think you'll be happy.
-
I'm 100% in for sure. Might take 2

3 digit Euros or USD? You could have a 3714 with a gen movement built for 3 digit Euros, but not USD
-
I'm not bothered by nice clocks ticking away but this is loud. When I'm sitting in my office here all I hear is tick tick tick...
-
Literally JUST picked mine up from the post office. Yes, it's loud!
Gen movement time? Hahaha.
-
Who sources and installs movements in these bad boys?

Hi Concepta. How much for a dial and a set of hands?
Best to PM as suggested
-
Interesting Indeed. The white is nice! Black is too similar to 3717 for my liking.
-
Hopefully a decent or franken 5001?
Would but nice but..

Thanks for the update. Cheers.

Bit of an update on this watch. After wearing for a few days, yes you can notice the spacing on the sub dials being off when you compare it to the real deal.
The winder is quite noisy. I can easily get the case back off, can anyone link me to a how to on the rotor greasing or provide some info?
Thanks

Yeah it's quite nice, I'm wearing it at the moment
Will have to investigate the double AR. Not sure if anyone is Australia does it?? Otherwise it might be off for a trip O/S.

I've got the black version on my wrist at the moment - just arrived this morning. It's a really nice watch if you can get past the white/low date wheel and the button @ 8 for the date.
As mentioned earlier - "Highly recommended on this watch is to give the bearings of the rotor a good sticky grease". It's very loud, I'm going to have to investigate this.
I'm going to source a new strap for it also, the one it comes with is a cheap rep strap. Deployment and buckle are nice though.
It was also mentioned that the hands look flat but yes, this is just the dealer pics. They are not flat
Hope this helps a little!

I don't mean to hi-jack this thread but I'm also wondering about the date wheel on the IWC Portuguese Automatic. I note they black face models have white date wheels when they should be black. I'd love to have mine changed also!

Nice nice nice!
