AP 15202 JF - New Release

[roadtofreedom]

They will never get that fixxed look at the black v4 15400 next to it how shitty the Swiss made printing is it's over 4 years and it still looks like complete shit.

Regarding “Swiss made” printing, JF v3 looks good, JF v4 looks much worse.

But latest AP 15400 OMF looks very good but not close to gen.

v4 was a step back in that sense.

No trust me v3 had the same issues, omf has good printing because they use little extra places and not printing directly to the dial.

OMF is like a 2813 cheapie with a 408$ price tag hehe

 

[Tigerdragon]

So like the 15202? Which costs 100 dollars more and is like the 15400 (even with less material?)

The OMF is a joke in many ways - you know that

come on - all i wanted was to bash OMF a bit as the 15202 got enough shit storms these days hehe

Anyone got QC or real life pictures? Got informed that it seems that only the big TDs got stock and JF did only one batch? So it seems its hard to get one?

Have one shipped coming to me by friday willing to sell it if i dont like it if youre interested

 

[Tigerdragon]

Sure if you dont like it you can make a sells thread and reserve it for me where are you located?

Is there any rumor of JF doing a version 2 because they only made one batch of this? They went on a flurry fixing date fonts of their other models, I wonder if they will fix the date font on this 15202. The center pinion is sad too. If they fix those two issues, it's a definite buy for me even with the thickness.

Personally I would like to see in the v2 in order of importance for me:

- Fixed date font to match the 15202
- Thinner movement (thinner watch) - just an engraved Miyota 9015 with that nice rotor they've already made. No deco plate.
- Smaller center pinion

Do that and you've earned my dollar.

Is there a way to reach out to him reliably? I could try the Angus section, or even PM, but I just want to be sure he will hear it.

And better printing. You can tag him:

And the crappy printing should be fixed.

We heard that JF may be working on a version 2 of the AP 15202. A lot of us wanted to purchase a 15202 rep by JF, but the first batch had a number of issues that need addressing before a lot of us feel confident in our purchase. In order of preference (mine only), here are a list of changes we hope to see:

1. Fixed datewheel font that is used in the gen 15202
2. Fixed printing on the dial
3. Smaller center pinion
4. Thinner non-plated movement. The rotor is fine, maybe just used an engraved, unplated Miyota 9015.

If these are addressed, I estimate this to be a popular watch that lots of people will buy.

 

[Tigerdragon]

He already knew that ^^ becase i wrote it in the 2018 JF novalty thread.

 

[fettyrepz]

Doesn't look very appealing.

The movement font on the rotor looks very off...

If thats your biggest issue we have a super rep here

 

[Kitosarg]

New jersey , are you in the US?

I might be interested too. I have my watches delivered to manhattan. If you open the sale i might take it

 

[Tigerdragon]

but post some pictures/videos before so that we can see how the quality really looks

Edit: The bracelet really looks not that good compared to the 15400



The 15400 bracelet looks way better? Why are the spaces so huge?
