I have bought the AP RBII from kool-watch because I would like to do some modding to the plate under the dial (yes with C

Thanks for the review. Great to see how close it is. Was the gen strap a straight swap with the rep one? I tried to put on a gen strap on my black themes and it looked terrible. It worked fine with the kit from AP bands though. I guess at least 2 reps for one gen strap and deployant?

Looking at the pictures, it seems to me that they also fixed the hour hand.

You made a good deal on that strap man. The watch looks amazing with the bracelet what modifications did you do to fit the strap?

I'm sorry but I disagree. The change you see a AP ED on the street is very very small. 90% of the people on the street don't even know AP and 99% have never heard of the ED model. People on the street do know Rolex though and the first question they will probably ask is " is it real?"

Rare as unicorn's teeth - Cousteau 06 on bracelet!
sander replied to docblackrock's topic in The IWC Area
I have seen quite a few gen's with bracelets actually. This one is also a gen rigth? -
That is really a beauty. Did it came with this strap or did you get it somewhere else? Also please show us some more pics. Back, side etc.... Did they also have the white gold model with grey dial?

Experts! Is the genuine 3717 case equipped with antimagnetic lid?

Yes it is. -
Need some help with installing gen APROO strap
sander replied to sander's topic in The Audemars Piguet Area
I have the lugs that came with the rep. They fit the case very nice but won't work with the gen strap. There is ugly cap between the strap and the lug. I remember some guys here also have some gen straps and I'm really wondering how they attached it. Maybe they are less picky than I am Good to hear that the screws fit. -
Need some help with installing gen APROO strap
sander replied to sander's topic in The Audemars Piguet Area
Anybody? -
Ok, I got myself a gen APROO strap ........ unfortunately the 2 conversion kits I have look terrible with it. I have the one supplied with the sec @ 12 and I have one from Oracle straps. Does anybody now if this kit from AP bands will work with the rep case and gen strap? Also I stripped one lug screw and would like to know if this kit works with the rep case aswell. Thanks for letting me know! Ciao, Sander

Realy a great project! Good job man in finding these parts. huh?

Although it still has a recessed date wheel, I think you received the so called "fixed" one. The only way to check this is to open it up.

This is what makes the hobby fun. Waiting waiting and waiting.... At the end it's always worth it. It's a great looking watch scotty!

What parts are needed for Chinese movements?
sander replied to offshore's topic in General Discussion
I think we need the reversing wheel and the ratchet wheel for the A7750. Also a cannon pinion for the A7750 with a closed top (for the pams without the centre seconds hand) would be nice. -
How about this pic. all 4 are the same crystals (iwc 3714) and only with after market AR. Guess which one

anyone know how to fit dsn ti case with steel bracelet
sander replied to dcap04's topic in The Panerai Area
I think you're on the wrong forum dude -
That looks great man! Can you also show us a pic when it's mounted on the crystal?

Thanks for the reply guy's I was looking for it because I received some 3714's lately and I'm not sure which is the new movement and which is the old one. I received 2 with a pressed on bezel and 2 which are screwed on the case. 2 manufacturers???? Also one movement is a really f.cked up. The worst I have ever seen. Brand new and straight from one of our collectors. I should write a topic about it.....

A gen dial will fit no problem. It doesn't matter if it's the v1,v2 or v3 case or movement. Also the dial feet on the gen dial fit right on. The gen hands will fit the v1 model movement but not the v2 or v3 model. The gen hands will also fit a swiss 7750 movement. It will be a pain to sourche a gen dial and hands though. I have a relumed v3 dial if you are interested. The lume on this dial is even better than the gen one. Let me know if you are interested. These 2 pics have a gen dial, relumed hands, gen eta date wheels, gen strap and buckle, Chief's AR. So I guess you are looking for something like this

Gen Rolex date disc, installed in a WM9 Yachtmaster
sander replied to Mickey Padge's topic in Watch Repair & Upgrade
Sure you can do this but I prefer to sand down the Eta. No matter how careful you are, there is always a little change you damage the date wheel. So why taking a risk if you can also sand down the Eta and don't risk anything at all? -
