Time to reinvent JFs Tapisserie technique... In the end the Swiss made is a bit bigger - easier to print but also easier to spot issues...

lets wait until we see this thing under real light :)

AP ruined the Royal Oak when they released the 15400 so this new release makes no odds to me!

Wish JF would release a 15300, that was a perfect watch!!!

That was meant to be an emoji. It was "100%"

Should be easier for JF to print decent minute markers on the 15500.

Flaws of the current JF 15400 are:

Thickness > new 15500 is thicker, and JF basically already makes a case/bracelet that's gen spec to this new AP
Minute markers > since now they are printed outside the tapisserie, it should be easier
Swiss Made > probably will stil look bad

Looks good for a rep maker. Maybe the Date positions is a bit akward for a Miyota 9015.

Movement decoration, look like just a new rotor could do the trick

How they copied the indices from Hublot :D always funny to see.

For the rest, i find the 15400 better but maybe JF can rep the new one better.

Hublot Classic Fusion is selling very well so yeah there was another Hublot model with different indices (they pump out so much its hard to follow lol).

they literally just used refined 15703 indices that are already existing for a long time. i don't see the similarity as sticks are sticks...

This Royal Oak update looks alright guys. Their other recent offering CODE 11.59 looks like a Daniel Wellington / Michael Kors homage.
