We can never, ever compare a 40K watch with a $500 rep, its just very unfair. The complicated 2121 caliber is a masterpiece. The XF 15202 is what, externally 85-90% close to gen ?

What "official announcement" are you talking about?Where is the official announcement from ZF? You also edited the post and removed a few things
Yes.
When we talk about a replica we speak of a watch visually resembling gen in various degrees. Often the movements of the gen and rep (especially AP) are completely different and modified replacements. It is good enough that the rep is produced to resemble the gen visually. Any movement or function replication is a bonus. Like you say this is a $500 rep and hence it should be assessed as one and not a $40k watch. Anyone who wants a $40k watch should spend that money to buy one. Anyone who buys a $500 watch should not have unrealistic expectations about it being able to replicate the gen 1:1.

I am just amazed how well the XF did with the 15202 as for first try. Lets not forget that we are looking into pictures 10x what you see on the wrist. We shouldnt worry to much.
Damn, i cant even tell the date on my 16600 without my glasses, and impossible for me to see any dial fails etc. wrist lenght
The Print on the dial look very bright
Looking forward to your sale listing after more one liners. lol
Any news? After this big announcement it has gotten very quite.
