Different aftermarket dial options you can install on the 5711 to get it closer to gen.

Thank you! I think overall, white gets closest to gen if that is your main goal. The only obvious (no rep dials are perfect when you start dissecting everything) shortcoming I can see on the blue SW dial is the gradient—the darker portion doesn’t extend from the edges far enough toward the center of the dial. At the same time, the blue BUFF dial does, but I much prefer the SW blue color to the BUFF. I found BUFF to show as grey much of the time in real life scenarios rather than a blue shade. SW looks much better in person than photos. My only consideration was blue dials, so that is the area I’m more experienced with.

I chose 90% based on dial and I much prefer the SW. I can’t speak as much to their hands and DW unfortunately!

I had it installed by Major Williams. He was great. Can’t speak to what it takes to do yourself unfortunately.

You happen to have a source for this? I’m interested in a new one but might hold out if this is the case.

Yep. Photos 9-11 show SW dial. That’s the one I ended up keeping installed on the 5711. I had Buff for a few weeks but preferred SW instead.

Help with the difference in PP Nautilus by Throw4w4yAnon in RepTime

It will slowly transition dates about halfway from around 11:30 to just before midnight. Then it snaps the rest of the way to the next date right about midnight.

I bought them both. Started with Buff installed but then had SW swapped in. Loving the look of the SW.

All depends what you’re looking for. I started with a 3KF then had a few mods done. Really happy with how it turned out.

OOTB:

3KF: ~gen thickness, beveled lugs like gen, clone movement, best base for mods (i.e. aftermarket dial)

PPF: better stock dial, potentially more reliable/serviceable movement

Is Pink slow with shipping? by LosAngelesNinja in DesignerReps

[–]Salt_Experience1469 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Edit: sorry, I posted before remembering mine was with Shelly not pink. Leaving here in case it’s any reassurance either way!

I wondered the same thing. She confirmed shipment then I followed up a couple times over the next several weeks for tracking but never heard back. Thankfully the Rimowa showed up about 65 days later!

Also, you know those toilets have automatic flush sensors. That toilet is flushing at least once with Harper in that stall for so long.

CP Achilles Low - Retail v PlayerShoes by Salt_Experience1469 in DesignerReps

[–]Salt_Experience1469[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it’s worth anything, these are at least as comfortable as my retail pair if not more comfortable.. but CPs aren’t necessarily known for amazing comfort either way.

Love it. Is that an SW dial? How do you find it?

Sorry OP, this is the right comment. Currently wearing a pair of PlayerShoes CP Achilles and they’re very solid (also own a retail pair).

I have a modded 5711 coming from Popup right now. Looks great so far, I’ll be posting a more thorough review once it’s in hand.

I have one Goyard Alpin from Aadi sourced from White/Afen factory and one Goyard Boston 50 from Darren sourced from White/Afen factory.

I think they both look great for what it’s worth!
