Well folks, the last you'd ever see of my 3717... Together with a brand new gorgeous gen ostrich ( i think!) pilot strap i got on the bay together with gen buckle... Enjoy.. For you'll never see this baby again.

nice looking combo mate :thumbsupsmileyanim:

Thanks mate... the strap is hand made and feels really good. Suddenly my 3717 looks like it ready for a dogfight. Managed to snag it for a great price on the bay on auction :victory:

Looks lethal bud, nice choice. Is it black w/ white stitching?

And off topic slightly, do the rep 3717 cases have all the right polished SS vs. brushed surfaces as the gen, e.g. the thin line of polish down the sides of the lugs and around the dial? I have the gen but the reps look so good I might have to get one!

Yes its kindof a glossy black.. not over glossy though. really thick good leather though. Pure white stitchings to contrast.

Perhaps pics of what you're asking might help a lot mate.

Good choice!

Thanks Red. Even my wife thought i bought a new watch! I was surprised how different it made my 3717 look compared to on the rep strap or the kevlar watchboy strap.

Just picked up my 3717 from the Spa... Not only did it go for a recalibration... it came back with some surprises, i did start this thread by saying you'd be seeing that 3717 for the last time... Pics first.

First a face on photo

I'm sure the more au fait would have guessed the mods. This baby has just shot up many notches with a gen dial, d/d wheels and gen hands! I will do a side by side comparison of gen and rep dial a bit later on. First impressions are the lume markers are a dead giveaway cos they look more chunky and sharp edged on the rep.

Mods done to my 3717 so far :

Taka AR

ETA d/d wheels

Full service and tuning by Spin +/- 3s per day

Gen Dial

Gen Hands

New caseback to replace scratches

Gen buckle

Stay tuned for the comparison.
