yaron Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 (edited) My 3717 finally arrived from k2222 after holidays delays. Double AR and DW swap make the watch look different and hardly distinguished from the gen. Great job and Kuba is a great guy to deal with.

aeroflott Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 Yeah. Really looking forward to getting mine back - looks great. You thinking about changing the bracelet for a strap? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yaron Posted January 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 Thanks, I am sure that daylight pictures would be much better, because in reality it looks much better. About the strap, I am not sure if I want to change it, because in general I like SSB and all my reps except one (SOSF) are with SSB. I know that it is difficult to take the SSB of the 3717, and almost impossible to return it the same way once you changed your mind. In addition, I think the pilot SSB is very special. So I will probably leave it that way for now. BTW, I checked in IWC AD and the SSB version costs almost $1500 more expensive than the black leather strap. When i asked why they could not explain, just said it is more convenient and you can go swimming with it.. I could'nt believe it (of course this is not a reason not to change it if you don't like it). So have good luck with your watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yaron Posted January 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 Once I know how to remove the crystal from my Omega , it goes lineareta to Jakub for AR...I hate the reflections on the crystal now My SMP chrono and TAG Link are already in Jakub's lab, I am curious what will come out. I am sure the Link will be great. There is a kind of new gen link chrono with AR coating. I also don't know how to take the crystal off and I don't trust any local watchsmith to do this, so I sent the whole watch. The 3717 returened safely, though it took quite a long time, but when you have several good reps it may be better when some are away, so it's easier to decide which one to wear from those left. And when you get it back you feel like getting a new watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
