Last time, I talked about the improvement which PPF made on the replica Nautilus Moon Phase 5712 in article https://www.susanreviews.com/2025/03/31/two-improvements-from-ppf/, that improvement is the engravings on the movement plate, which become deeper. Just yesterday, PPF announced another improvement on the dial color of the V3 5712, I got the watch yesterday night and took some pictures for you. The dial looks really better than before.
Before, many watch fans would like to get a Patek Philippe 5712 from PPF and then changed a SW dial on because SW dial has a more correct color, now it is not necessary to do this because the new dial from PPF has a correct color. Before this update, I made a comparison between PPF 5712 and the one with SW Dial in article https://www.susanreviews.com/2024/12/31/ppf-nautilus-moon-phase-5712/, we can clearly see the dial of the PPF 5712 looks slightly purplish, now you will not see this issue on the new dial from PPF. Look at the pictures below, actually the dial color looks more authentic than it on the pictures, you will be satisfied with the dial color after seeing the actual watch.
After the improvement, the dial color even looks better than that on SW dial, but is is absolutely much better than the dial color of OME 5712, on the 5712 from OME, the dial looks slightly gray.
About the finish on the edge of the hour markers, SW does a better polishing and the chamfering is more noticeable, which is closer to that of genuine. While PPF and OME have the same finish on the hour markers.
About the color on the hour markers and hands, SW dial is better, its color on the markers is the same as that on the hands. While on PPF, there is still slight color difference between the markers and hands.
My conclusion:
If you have enough budget, I still suggest you choose a PPF 5712 and then change with a SW Dial. SW Dial has a very good dial color and good finish on the hour markers.
The OME 5712 is also very cost-efficient because its case is made correct especially on the lugs.
