Anyone have experience of both factories and have a preference?

Any feedback would be helpful.

Hi,
If I were you, I would take the JF one still available at asian7750.co for 678$... I don't know why RSF or APF are more expensive.

 

[HR911]

I’d rather stick with Puretime as I always use them.
Any comparisons between APF and RSF are welcome

Looks like the exact same watches

 

[j21]

Nothing serious that will made me prefer the one from the other

 

[Nono92]

Intime has it too (648$). If you search a little maybe you will have it for 608$

 

[j21]

Tbh i refuse to pay the ammount they ask no matter if 600 or 700
They haven't upgrade anything , they have kept the fat cases and the 7750 movement

When apsf comes with the clone 3126 and that will result with new case.sets etc... Then yes gladly

Noone knows

We just waiting

I mean is it reachable in the near future or are we talking about 5 years +? I’m considering buying an AP ROO (just need to come up with a solution of that tang buckle nightmare, but that’s another discussion) so I can wait a while if so. Any idea?

Supposedly in less than 1 year

have a gen 26400 case incoming and i am also on the wait for the 3126 clone so lets just hope as soon as possible

It's not easy to wear, either in 14,7 or 15.5 mm. With a carbon case, the pressure on the wrist must be much less...

Yeah i agree, the one i got is titanium so it will help with that aspect

That sounds good, I could wait 1 year.

Volumic mass even if it's only the case and not the movement...
Carbon : 2.3
Titanium : 4.5
Steel : 7.8 g/cm^3
If anyone had the weight of the three different cases of an AP ROO, it would be interesting !

Nice info
I know for fact that the tianium 26400 reference is 110gr(all the watch)
I guess carbon could make it around 80?and steel 200? Perhaps...

How could the titanium 26400 be lighter than the 42 mm Bumble bee (given at 116.7 g by Mikaël Dan) ? Maybe he's wrong. We should ask Legend to weigh them to be sure for our next purchase
