It's so difficult to tell with pictures. I'm considering this vs the 15400 black dial. Thoughts? This one seems like a great size but a bit dull and maybe less gen like...

because the gen got an automatic movement with an open case back - and please dont say "they could make a vintage 5402 or 14790 with a closed case back"...

This topic was discussed many times before.

I read a lot of movement problems I think it is because it's to thin I had the same problem with my 15400 which was slimmed down to 10.02

The problem is if the rotor is not moving the movement will not loading up through the day.

Not good :/

No idea but this version came out 2 month ago so i don't think they would now release a new version would make no sense actually.

Lug to lug:
DC version: 4.1 cm
JF Version: 4.0 cm

But the DC version wears much larger because the case is completely different, JF is more gen like and wears a lot smaller

This is very interesting.... making me consider getting a JF vs saving money and going with a quartz.
