capusto Posted May 3, 2009 Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 Dear all, I have always like the iwc style, I saw the 3717-01 and simply love it. So, Im looking for this watch, a modded one. As I am a newbie... ahaha ... i have not enough experience to take to pieces a watch and to found an EU-modder who accept to mod a V3 dial, etc. But, do I have a chance to found this watch for sale? (Im not alone, tonton2000 is in the same case) Forgive my english. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meh784 Posted May 4, 2009 Report Share Posted May 4, 2009 (edited) yes, but you have to play the waiting game. I think I lurked here and RG for ~2 months before I was able to find someone selling a modded 3717. just got to be patient. good luck.

(Im not alone, tonton2000 is in the same case) Forgive my english. Thanks I might have one for sale pretty soon. It's a beauty! It has a gen dial, gen black croc strap, Eta day/date wheels, C1 relumed hands, Chiefs AR. Won't be cheap though! PS: the dial and strap are brand new and not via Ebay!

arminvanbuuren Posted May 18, 2009 Report Share Posted May 18, 2009 might have 1 for sale.. mods: - eta date/daywheel change - superlumed dial and hands - chief ar - movement regulated so aesthetically its pretty much fully modded.. i spent more than 600 bux on the mods.. and i was gonna let it go for around $500 but there was no offer for it so meh! $300 (watch), $100 (superlumes), $50 (eta day/date wheel) + putting in cost is around $30, chief AR ($50) + crystal removal and installation ($30), regulation of movement (i cant remember how much but i think it was $100) = around $600 spent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
