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.

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.

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.

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?
