Go back a few pages. It was already mentioned a month ago and people posted comparison pictures between the new matte dial and the older shiny dial.
Beautiful watch. I received mine in March. The only issue is that my quick set for date does not work. Any quick fix or would I have to take to a watchmaker?

Good news, looks like li is back to work, after the robbery and corona, hes back.
I had qc for a 15202 from him but got robbed, so was expecting new qc pics and finally recieved today. I noticed that the dial looks much more matte finish than the old qc pics i got. I dont dislike it, maybe its just the lighting, but maybe this is a new batch, i dont know which would be more gen like. Someone that has the watch can tell if indoors without much light the dial goes like this?
Also, on the new one, could you please help me see if the screws are too close to the edge? I think it was better before but do you think is too bad?
Thank you guys, happy to see that factories and tds are coming back.
I posted this a couple of moths ago...

Rubberman could you maybe ask your contact to specify their answer?

both hands and dial, the hands glow is strong in direct sun but when indoors the color matches perfectly
Thank you for your reply. I thought a newbie like me will never get an answer. I was just going by Li’s review at the start of this thread where it was reviewed that the XF version (which I bought) you can move back the time right after midnight then move back to 9 pm and then when you move forward past 12 the date will change again. So based on your answer I would have to circle through one month worth of time to adjust the date if I went past the current date.
Thanks again.

Hi guys,
Few weeks ago I posted QC pictures from my TD that I disapproved. Two weeks later I still had no news of them so I have asked them some updates of the situation.
I just received their answer telling me they are waiting for XF to send them the watch as they have some updates on the dial. So it confirms the rumors about this “V2”.
As soon as I will get the new QC I’ll let you know !

Hi guys,
Li from JTime Watch again here lol.
A couple days ago, we managed to get a new sample from XF of rep 15202. And it seems to be a nice choice between 15400/15500 and 15450.
So I would like to share you guys some inside information about this watch, wish you guys would like to see it.
But sorry for we did not have enough time to make a proper comparison with gen this time.
Let's go down to the pictures.
General View
Dial Details View
Here are some points on the dial I would like to mention:
1. The textured cube is smaller than other versions in the market, closer to gen.
2. Logo and words printing are better than other versions.
3. Hand stack shape is more closer to gen.
4. DW font is also better than other versions.
Side View
Thickness of XF 15202 is 8.5mm, very close to the gen 8.2mm. Other versions shall be 9.5 - 9.7 mm thick if I remember it right.
Other Case Details View
What we can see is the edge polishing and dealing of the case seems better than other versions.
Bracelet and Clasp View
The edge polishing and dealing of the bracelet is smaller and better than other versions, as well as dark gray sanded dealing inside the clasp.
Movement View
As factory told, they are use a custom made A2121 movement in this rep 15202, has the same 2 gear setting spots as gen via the crown. (Not sure I describe it properly, forgive me that English is not my native language).
Quick Date Adjusting
As I have just mentioned, this watch is using a custom made A2121 movement with 2 gear setting spots, and it has the same quick date adjusting function as gen.
Let me see if I can explain how to adjust date on this rep 15202 properly lol.
1. Pull the crown stem to the second gear spot.
2. Adjusting time to make the date jump.
3. Once the date jumps at 12 o'clock, make the the hour hand back to 9 o'clock position then turn it to 12 o'clock again, the date will jump again.
OK guys, this will be end of this info sharing topic for XF 15202.
As always, we are a dealer trying to keep our objective attitude to every each rep watches, so everyone will be welcomed to leave your thoughts and comments here.
See you guys around and all the best to you all.

JTime Watch
Hi Li, Is there a special way of changing the date? My watch works fine but I am not able to change the date by rewinding to 9 pm and back after 12.
