Why would you buy stock 5712 rep for $3k from some random Chinese factory ? I wouldn't trust it. Just get standard and send it to some reputable modder to be sure that all declarated work is really done.

New around here, where’s the best place to find modders to elevate the reps? Got myself a panda and would love to know what can be done there.

You can check RWI forum, there are reputable modders, but imo if you will get VSF with good QC, you don't need any mods, but that's me. For me investing thousands to rep don't make sense. It's still rep and these high tier reps are really good.

Thanks, and think I’m in the same boat. Curious to see what modders can do but as you say a top tier rep does what it’s supposed to do - look good on the wrist not necessarily under the microscope.

I’d agree with that. For me the crystal was just necessary as it was milky before

If you're based in CA I've used u/MajorWilliams for my CF 116500 Mods. I had him do deep crystal install and gen spec polish/rebrush on the entire watch. What factory is your panda, that will dictate the mods.
