Dear All, I haven't posted in awhile, but here I am. :-) Hope you're all doing fine, I've been checking forums regularly of course, as always. I would really like to hear your honest opinions my PPP-Mod and my Pearl Replacement. I have got these done, haven't done them myself; therefore I would like a review. ] I've paid €80,- for the re-PPP and the Pearl replacement (incl. donor-pearl); therefore I'm seeking for a review. So, my Rolex has undergone a Pearl replacement due to the old one falling off (And it was untraceable, so this a new "donor-pearl") and it has gotten a PPP-Mod after the previous PPP-Mod I got done came off. I have taken pictures on a white (Rolex) booklet so you can see the difference between the "platinum" and the "white". In my opinion the marker behind the pearl hasn't been done correctly, neither has the "10" mark been done correctly. In my eyes they seem underfilled with Platinum paint. On to the pictures, these are pictures after I received the watch coming back from service. Please decide for yourself and comment. :-) If anybody wants any other picture(s), please let me know and I will add them. :-) Thanks for helping me out.

Nice intro! Welcome to the forums. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi all, This is my gen Audemars Piguet Millenary, which is a gen. Would like to show some photos and then come down to my question. Enjoy! Does anybody here, know a good place to buy a rep of this? I've checked a few TD's on here, but unfortunately they did not have the exact same one. I would like to buy a rep of this model for example for holidays. Hope someone can help! - Av Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi all, Just wanted to share my love for this beautiful piece. Would be insane if this would ever be repped (good enough) to wear for us. Enjoy! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Very nice. Do you have a rough cost estimation? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You got me excited. Please keep us updated! ;-) how are the movements in those? And what's the weight compared to gen? I've had one in my hand and it was extremely light. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Allright, fair enough.. But how's it possible that the paint the insert comes with (Noob for example) never comes off? (Atleast nog for me) then I wanted a PPP-MOD, to make it more gen-like, and [censored] goes down. What am I missing? Also, removing my watch before showering/swimming is so non-me, I want a watch I can bring everywhere anytime, know what I mean? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks for your reply. Mine came off in the pool, whilst the pool was about 30 degrees and I was only in for about 5 minutes. Possibly a good idea to bake the insert after completion of above mentioned process? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Nicely done, I was wondering : can you swim/shower with yours even after the PPP mod? I got mine done but unfortunately it came off, again... if yours is "resistant"; could you tell me how or what to apply/do in order to get it resistant? Thanks

Hi all, Lately i've been looking into some Pro Hunter editions for Rolex. They really seem nice to me, and there isn't too much information about them on the forums currently. Therefore, here I am. Looking for some opinions and information. I've found a quite nice one (In my eyes); I'm not thinking of purchasing, but I'm just wondering how good these are, because there are so less, it seems to me people would have a harder time "spotting" them. Some pictures, and the link: http://www.torobravo2015.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=39_217&product_id=525 Thanks! - Avenue

Where can you get another J12 Insert / Noob insert? Would like to know.

Where did you buy the new insert from? I have the same issue.

Dear all, Unfortunately, last week I've lost my pearl of my sub. Yesterday, some of my paint from the PPP-MOD came off. I haven't been very lucky lately, I just wanted to replace my pearl, but now my insert is screwed as it s also losing the platinum paint. Therefore, I am looking to entirely replace the bezel insert. I'm looking to buy one and I'm not very sure where to look, as I'm looking for a good one. (I might even go gen If someone has something nice to offer); please help me out and recommend me something. Really greatly appreciated. I've included a pic for the interested ones. — Avenue

I've sent back my sub back twice after the PPP-MOD's paint came off. Now, after it lasted for 3 weeks, it's starting to let go, once again. Also: I've lost my pearl.

Pity! Good luck sourcing a bezel, beautiful watch.

Do you know which model this came off? And what color is the lume? Also: are you separately selling the crystal or are you selling the entire bezel? Which dealer does this come from? Please let me know those things, and I'll sure get back to you! I'm in need of a new bezel/pearl!

Dear all, Unfortunately today I have lost the crystal/pearl of my Submariner. I'm clueless as I've never assembled a watch before myself. Therefore I do not know any dealer that sells pearls, for example. I've got a modded bezel (PPP-MOD) therefore I don't feel like ordering a new bezel with pearl, just a single pearl and let someone put it in. Does anybody have good tips for me, or a dealer that sells submariner pearls? (I need a high-quality pearl!) I've spent much cash on this rep. My lume is blue, therefore I need a pearl that has blue lume aswell. Hope someone can help me out! Will upload picture(s) tomorrow! Thanks in advance.

Because the world nowadays only focusses on capitalism, making money is the way to go. The future is not to be thought about. We all have the feeling that our nature will last forever, even though research has proven otherwise. Q: Would you rather live in a Country with snow 365 days/year or in a country with sun 365 days/year?

"If you're not bringing anything to the table, give up your seat."

There is a Hublot shop on Aruba you should visit! You should also go to the "Diverversity", a friend of mine is the owner. They make lovely diving trips (if you like to dive.) This is their number: +297 742 3636 Moomba beach is a nice beach club (also in the evening)! Enjoy.

Very sorry for your loss Micky, my condolences. Glad you spend the time of her passing on the phone with your sister. The only positive thing is you can (try to) have peace with it now. Your mother doesn't have to suffer anymore. Take care, Mick.

Pain is temporary! It may last for a minute, or an hour, or a day, or even a year. But eventually it will subside and something else will take it's place. If you quit however, it will last forever.
