A modded XF FC diver v2

Ok now guys this is a truly amazing base watch. The dial, hands, crystal, case are all done very well.

You need only the low beat movement modification and also the cyclop replacement (as above) and you will have an amazing watch on the wrist. More pics to follow. I’m happy with the results of the mods. This watch belongs to a member here.

I have a similar watch but bone stock, dw looks off and rotor loud as hell. Where can I get the DW to make it like that.

Also, what else needs to be modded for these FC divers?

The XF v2 is actually a good rep out of the box. For the 2836 movement version, it only requires the following mods:

 

1. Low beat ETA conversion (and service) to 21600bph

2. Cyclop 

 

The Date wheel you see in the pic is stock. I feel that it looks close to the H series gen. And any variation is not really noticeable in real life. I own gen APs and I find the date font to be acceptable to me. The cyclop was replaced with a prof double AR one, which does the job.

Those are the only two mods I found to be necessary.

Thanks[mention=39943]legend[/mention]. Not sure what model mine is, looks good but dw is different. It has a miyota i believe.
 
Some pics. At work now so only attaching existing pics.

That does look different mate. And if you wake the neighbors up when you shake it, it’s a miyota all right. :D

Hello everyone,

This is my first post and first modded AP XF FC Diver V2 by @Legend, thank you bro for the time and efforts on this watch!

What I can give my testimonial about this watch is a really good rep out of the box already plus the conversion of low beat movement and cyclop, I would say I have treated and wore her like a gen since she received her from @Legend. Low beat movement has kept the time really well since I received the watch and no noise or whatsoever. 

Testimonial for @Legend - How he got his username somehow justified it and proven by his workmanship. Note to the new or existing member out there, @Legend is not some modder that wants to take any business if you don't get his respect. Best suggestion is to show some respects and manners if you want to deal with the Legend :)  I had a good experience and would definitely recommend him and do more business with him in the near future! I am not the best photographer but please check out the photos below for the good bits!

Thanks J for being a patient, understanding and trustworthy person to deal with. We did start out on a contentious note but the most valuable thing to me for this episode was your friendship gained.
The watch looks good on you, I am glad that we went undertook this project together and I am happy that you like the result. Wear her well and thank you once again for your gentlemanly manners throughout it all. It is much appreciated my friend.
