  1. I just receive it today. A bit dissapointed with the finish on some places like the crown holder. Also having problem with the crown holder's screw is loose so it keeps popping off.
  2. I think it will be hard. You need to make sure the module on A7750(seconds on the center) will fit into the Swiss 7750 (seconds on 9 o'clock).
  3. I'm waiting for mine to arrive. Hopefully soon. It's been a week since puretime send the QC picture but no tracking no yet. I tried the gen last year. Even the quality of the gen is not comparable with gen of watch around that price. For $360 it's pretty cheap for a franken(might be gen) with swiss movement.
  4. The quality is good on twb strap. I've had ingy rep kevlar strap and the quality of twb is so much better. This is not real kevlar though, it is kevlar-like rubber
  5. Here is the pics of my 3717 with TWB kevlar strap. Sorry for crappy pics.

    IWC 3717

    The different is the dial. If you look at the outer dial where they divide the seconds. This one only has 1/4 sub seconds whereas the old one has 1/5 sub seconds line. Also the new one has brushed caseback. This version will be closer to gen. I would hope they would fix the movement too.
  8. That's genuine mid-size ingenieur. It is smaller compare to normal ingenieur with diameter 40mm compare to 42mm.
  9. Here is my modded 3717. The mods include k2222 AR ETA DW The Zigmeister relume ETA 7750 Looking at your pics, the marker is a bit crooked but you can fix it if you want to get it relume.

    ETA

    Both of them are real ETA. I bought the cheaper version and it is real ETA.
  11. v1 on the left, The Zigmeister lumed on the middle and v2 on the right.
  12. From repgeek someone already confirm that subdial of v2 and v1 is the same. I think my one is a defect. So the difference between them is only the lume around the numbers. Also the font is all clear white it is only the lightning that makes the difference but it is actually the same colour. I hope I receive the dial from The Zigmeister next week so I can finish my 3717.
  13. I have IWC 3717 v1 and v2 sitting around so I just going to do the comparison between them. v2 on left and v1 on the right for first pic and second and for third pics v2 on the right and v1 on the left. Also I lost the 9 o'clock marker on v1 dial. First difference is the lume, v2 dial have lume on all the no and 12,3,6,9 markers and the lume is blue where v1 dial has lume on 12,3,6,9 markers only and the lume is green. The v1 is closer to genuine dial. A few peoples saying that the v2 have thinner markers on 12,3,6,9 but the truth is there is no diferentce in thickness of the markers, it looks thinner because the side of the markers is black instead of white like the one in v1. Another difference that I found is the subdial rings on the v2 is wrong. 12 and 6 subdial has very large ring and the groove on the is very shallow compare to v1. I'm not sure if this only happens to my one. So can someone with v2 dial reconfirm this. Also I have another 3717 dial modded by The Zigmeister so when I receive them I will do another lume comparison.
  14. I went to puretime site and found he has omega deville hour vision replica watch. It looks pretty close with gen but the movement is different but when I look at the price it is $528 . Has anyone thinking to get one and review the watch?
  15. First time on wrist check. Fully moded ingy
  16. Isn't it possible to create the yellow lume using tinting products from noctilumina? Also here is the pics of gen aquatimer lume taken from timezone.
  17. I can't recall the exact date but when I search through your thread for the datewheel. My name is on the waiting list on August.
  18. Here are the pictures. From 17-31 is fine. The problem happens around 1-16
  19. I have 2824 and I bought the datewheel about 2-3 months ago but just installed just then. I haven't talk with lello yet aboput this maybe I should send him a message.
  20. As the title said, Is there anyone else who have installed Lello datewheel have this problem? The problem that I'm having is I have manage to make the datewheel for 19-31 aligned but when it is on 1-18 date is misaligned pretty bad like the top parts of the no. is touching the date window.
  21. I just got my dial back from The Zigmeister and just finishing reluming my stuffed up dial with Noctilumina. This is the comparison of Trictec C1 and Noctilumina (G8UF/B8UF). The things that I hate about noctilumina are they don't have anything with White body colour such as Tritec C1 and also the binder is very hard to work with. After 15 mins you can barely see anything. The lume in this watch is mild lume so don't expect it to glow like the one on Panerai.
  22. It should be enough for 4 dials but it also depends what dial are you reluming.
  23. Just finished reluming hands and indices using AF lume. Here is the pics
  24. Is there any lume on the indices of gen. tag heuer carrera chrono racing. The one with red hands. Because I cannot see the lume on the replica.
  25. I'm going to add another crystal. Total 2 crystals from me. thanks
