Long story short watch was sent for ETA wheel swap, movement service, AR, and relume. Got the watch everything looked great, after a few days noticed the 12 o'clock triangle marker was not the correct shape. I do not have the budget for a gen dial and getting ready to do a Taka crystal swap.

Wanted to see if anybody had a extra rep dial possibly relumed or somebody that got a gen dial and willing to sell the rep dial.

Thanks

What are members here using to maintain their bracelets. I wear my watch daily and it is looking bad due desk scratches.

Awesome watch. How can I get in touch with Flav regarding lume services?

How bad is the clasp engraving? do you have a pic?

Rep clasps are not great in this regard; usually a bit shallow and obviously achieved using laser engraving.

Here is mine on my franken:

Unfortunately, not a lot of options out there for correcting this, short of going gen for the parts.

Yes it is similar to yours, it seemed like seeing the pics of others that the V3's had a better clasp.

My current bracelet has a poor quality IWC engaving on the clasp, does anyone know of a source I can find a replacement SS bracelet?

On my watch the 3, 6, and 9 are crooked. Especially the 6, it really messes the look up. I would also be interested in a replacement dial if it is possible.

Thanks for the replies and i'll post pics as soon as I can, new to posting here. I may be making a bigger deal than it really is. Also, it is supposedly the higher priced 3717 version. I have looked at all the previous member pics of this watch and can't find that flaw. The 6 mark in between the SWISS MADE is the one that kills it, or drives me crazy the others are just barely, but they are off. I am in love with the watch and would love to mod the day/date wheels, but not with the current dial, because the 6 mark will kill it. Thanks for hearing me out and once you all see the pics, I will figure out what action to take based on opinions.

I recieved my 3717 very promptly, 1 week. Overall very happy with the watch, I ordered the stainless and Black leather band, but only recieved the stainless bracelet. That is alright though, just happy I recieved anything at all. I could not find in the previous posts, but there were some issues with the dial, which may be normal. The "12, 3, 6, and 9" markers on the outer portion of the dial all seem a little off. The main one is the 6 in between where it says SWISS MADE, it is slanted left and throwing the whole look of the watch off. In other words it is pretty obvious. Sorry I am new here, just wanted to know if this can be fixed? Other than day/date wheels mod, what else is recommended. Thanks.

Debating between these two watches. Haven't heard much talk on the Flieger Chronograph SS Black rep, how would you rate this watch. Is the 3717 worth the extra money.
