Here is the new V4 dial just installed for a customer, close to the old version which have been swapped.
It’s definitely worth the upgrade, it looks a different color in every single angle you picture it.

Mine arrived today and I'm really happy with it. It's one of the most beatiful watches I have ever seen and it's also pretty comfortable on the wrist. Sizing the bracelet was also pretty easy with the proper tools, a cheap 10€ watch tool set did the job easily. The rotor is a bit noisy, but I think I can live with that.

So the best combo is basically a pf base , and ppf dial and hands with a keylog date wheel ? What about the bracelet ? My pf is very comfortable

Thanks! Nothing really special, Fuji X-T3 with a 50mm 2.0 lens and a macro ring for close-ups. I can't justify spending the money on a real macro lens, the rings are good enough for me. It's just important to use a tripod, so the shutter speed can be increased and ISO reduced. Just a big minor tweaking with Capture One Pro, but I did nothing crazy with the photos here as I wanted to show the colors as real as possible.
To be honest, I'm not so happy with the wristshot myself as the lighting was pretty bad yesterday and I didn't have much time. But I somehow have to agree after looking at it once more, it doesn't look that bad :)

I especially love the size of the 5711, it fits my small 6.5",16.5cm wrist pretty well. I also had an AP 15500, which I could wear, but it was on the larger side, a bit too large for my taste.

Agreed on the AP 15500, for us slim-wristed guys I think the 15202 is the way forward...

Yep, the 15202 would also be great, but I'm really missing the seconds hand there. And the printing on the dial is also a bit too old-school there for me. So 5711 it is :)

I meant the 15202 was preferable to the 15500 size-wise but yes, I too prefer the 5711 to both of those!:D
