On the TT, look at the plating on the links. Is that for real, or was the gold badly photoshopped onto a SS photo?

This is common in rep Rolexes. I’m not surprised to see it here.

Thats real. Mine is like this. I’ll be honest its nearly impossible to notice on the wrist unless you truly look for it. Because the side thats facing inward towards the bracelet is polished, it reflects just right to where you can’t really tell unless you get up close.

I'm seeking rubber gaskets replacement for my APSF 15450. Aside from asking TDs, is there anywhere I can find them? In particular, the case back gasket seems like a circular shape that's molded into the curves, and I'm wondering if anyone has had the chance to measure it? Perhaps @legend would know? Thanks in advance.

Hello guys i have searched the forum but the information is too much and in some cases outdated. I want to buy an AP 15450 but don't know if i should choose the ZF or APSF one. As of today which one is consider the best? Thank you very much in advance.

According to my last but not up to date information the blue ZF dial is great but the ZF bracelet doesn't fit large wrists.

My 2 cents, since I had both in white dial.

ZF has a smaller bracelet which can be a problem. I preferred the case on ZF (a tad bit longer lugs) and the very straight forward construction (easy to remove caseback and bezel).

ASPF had a better white dial, slightly short lugs and there are these fuckin screws that are a pain to remove the screws on the bezel.

That being said, both are cool :)

If dial is your priority : aspf.
If case and easy disassembling is : zf.

But note the flaws in each are very small compared to one another.

My 2 cents :)

Dial is my priority but pulled the trigger on a ZF 15450 with gray dial. Hope it turns out good

I have the ZF gray. It’s a good choice.

All in all it's a good choice. Only reason I put mine on sale is I went the gen way and I m still wondering if it was worth it :)

I am thinking of buying a gen as well. But wanted to check the size and dial first.

It seems APS has updated the blue dial as well but not using ZF dial. The blue color is very dark, almost like black under certain lighting condition. Compare to gen blue dial on chrono24, I think it's not super close but better than the ZF blue dial. I'm trying to get my hands on one to find out.

i actually liked the color of the previous version more, although i guess they've made the tapisserie better

Tapisserie pattern is better now, more like ZF dial. But the sunburst has become weaker and it's lacking the greenish blue hue.
Typical rep game. Fix one thing, break another.

I prefer the old dial. This one looks bad compared to old sunburst dial.
