Apsf 15450

[gilrob]

Any one try the two tone APSF 15450? Curious about RG color

Curious as well. Hopefully we get an answer and pictures.

There is such thing as a reference RG color when the watch is brand new (even this varies between batches) but after some wear the RG color for different pieces will change different depending on the temperature, sunlight, and other environmental factors. I’ve seen many times gen RG APs with different tones. So for used APs there is no one color. It is entirely possible therefore that the brand new rep color replicates a possible tone of a used gen RG AP perfectly.

Might be worth a try

Not that I’m aware of so far. The clone 4302 is a lot better made than the 3120 IMHO.

I just recieved APSF watch with clone 4302 - looks good but rotor sounds like older miyota based reps

It’s an easy issue to resolve.

I will try to put a micro drop of moebius 9104 like in the old days. Anyway, is there anything else one can do to solve this easily? @legend

Seems like APSF updated their dial. Maybe the same dial supplier as ZF. The font and dial pattern look very much like ZF dial.

I was just about to place the order today and I'm still undecided whether to stop APSF or ZF and I find your message, so is it better to wait a little longer or if I place the order will I receive this updated model? Then I didn't understand another thing: is the 4302 movement only for the 41mm models or will it also be put on the 37mm?
In the end which is better between Apsf and ZF?
I'm interested in the white dial. Thanks

Has anyone seen an updated blue dial from APSF? I’ve only seen the new white dial and just in one set of qc pics which I believe is where the pic posted above came from

Any chance the factories want to work on a 15550? Would love something a bit more modern

Look in Trusty Time's webpage, enter 15550 on their search function to have a look at them.

APSF is basically using ZF dial.

I actually just placed an order for this one. I'll follow up with QC pics when it comes through probably middle of next month after CNY. I am not too worried about the plating fading off so quick since it is not going to be worn daily.
