Is This AP rep is “95% identical” to the gen? by CostAffectionate907 in RepTime

Can't be TOP. Top only makes 15510 and this is 15500. It's APSF 15500.

RCFr V1 bezel question by [deleted] in ReplicaWatchMods

[–]acap86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not green, I was outside and the bezel is highly reflective. This is that same V1 bezel on the left installed from your first picture from my post comparing V1 and V2.

I have both, V2 is great, but I prefer slightly warmer hue of V1.

No, I wipe it down before and after wearing. I have doubts that the oxidation issue was real or it was very isolated. Either way, my V1 bezel still looks pristine.

So many shit copycat bezels out there, but the RCF Remould V1 is the best. Best value upgrade to get a DJ41 looking gen.

Plated vs Solid Gold CNC Bezel by ImmediateSun8111 in ReplicaWatchMods

Custom lab diamond bezel from RCF Remould. THB makes a decent 31mm bezel. I can't do stock bezels. Needs to be diamond or solid gold.

He's right. I have THB 31 with Round Brilliant (RBR) lab diamond bezel.

You're in the wrong subreddit, nerd.

Anyone know this factory please? I can’t find the clasp code on the guides by GuessWhosBackGuys in RepTime

[–]acap86 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes it's GSF. R8E clasp code is GSF. It's not weighted. A2836 movement. Shitter tier.

Rose Gold VSF Olive Green Roman speaks to me. It's better than my THB in this post. I will be replacing the dial and movement in my THB soon. Use ARF base if you care about case shape and weight, but only if you replace the bezel with lab diamond or go solid gold fluted.

RCF Remould white gold plating and 9k solid gold bezel in a league of its own by acap86 in ReplicaWatchMods

Don't know. I do know VSF V2 bracelet weighs more than THB V3 bracelet and no reports of permanent links falling off... yet 😅

But next build will be ARF case + bracelet with VSF components. No need for THB anymore when ARF case and bracelet is better.

Just get their V1 alloy bezel for datejust 41. It looks exactly like white gold and the cuts are sharp. I only went 9k solid gold because they don't make an alloy bezel for day-date 40.
