APSF new RM-055 with DD super clone movement release

[Reaps]

1) They arent stickers, youre just displaying the typical rep guy behavior of reading something somewhere and parroting it over and over
2)They objectively look better. Its okay, you can prefer the objectively worse and cheaper looking watch. Everyone is entitled to an opinion but that doesnt make everyone right.
3) Unfortunately i cant really turn off “ai” on the iphone 16 camera.

Yes I'm just parroting but it does seem that there is some basis to it unless there has been proof otherwise?

Geninuely if you have the knowledge it would be useful to have a detailed breakdown of why APSF is superior to ZF, the forum always needs content about technical matters and analysis. I'm happy to always learn.

I can see you won't really care but being abrasive and condescending won't really make friends here.

Enjoy the watch, it looks good.

Is it material applied to the surface? Yes. Is it a “sticker”? No. I dont really see the point of breaking anything down. ZF case is thick, the ribs on zf objectively look like ass if youre an individual with functioning eyes. Carbon looks better on apsf (thats just my opinion). The movements are the exact same otherwise. There isnt much more to it. If you see Any “misaligned stickers” on my photo let me know though.

I agree with you on APSF > ZF, but quit being so sensitive and defensive ffs.

I think the sensitive defensive ones are the fellas who came onto the APSF thread to cope about “le stickers”. I am merely trying to share objective information and not create an echo chamber of ZF fanboys, which sadly happens a lot on all watches.

You do have your points and I agree they are objective where facts go.
But I’ll ask you to tone it down all the same so that exchange on this thread can happen at a more palatable level for everyone. Thank you.
I’m not saying you’re wrong. But I’m asking you to play nice.

You had 3 people agree with you including myself that we all prefer APSF > ZF....

One member chose to share that he preferred ZF because of the font and stickered ribs, WHICH, in fairness, is still a mystery because we don't really have many updated pictures or people buying APSF here. Maybe they updated it, maybe they didn't.

There is no need for the insults or the abrasive nature. We are all here to share replicas and knowledge. If APSF updated it to metal ribs instead of stickers, good for letting people in this thread know.

All you needed to say was "here are close up pictures of my watch. Doesn't look like stickers to me." And let others evaluate from there.

You got me all wrong here. It is certainly applied material to the base DD movement. However calling it a sticker is a purposefully derogatory misnomer. They are certainly not brushed metal of the dangdong movement plate but they look fantastic. Much better than ZF. Thats the whole point of my post.

Ok, allow me to ask you one question though. Is your watch gen or are you just doing everything you can to make yourself feel like you’ve made the right decision in terms of which REP you bought?

Is this a gen or a rep watch forum pal?

ok ok! Let’s all of us just get a long.

Here, come and pet me… I’m soft, it’ll calm you down.

Ah. RWI. Where we debate about the definition of "stickers"

I like how the ribs on the APSF look compared to the ZF. However the ribs basically look like tiny pieces of aluminum tape.

The easiest way to adhere super thin pieces of metal would be to use some sort of super thin adhesive on the back of the metal. At that point - I think it's basically a sticker. A metal sticker, sure. But it feels like we're getting even more pedantic than usual here.

The new ZF 61-01 has the best ribs anyway.

I’ll let Tony Roma’s know you said that. I liked their honey glazed ones myself.

So any way back to the RM 055...

What I gather is that the apsf has better ntpt prolly close to Gen, good clone movement. Correct dimensions.

But they only have the ntpt. Not the rubber.
ZF has the rubber titanium case.

I hope apsf releases the titanium rubber case er m55 also

Yeah, ZF and VSF seem to have some irrational hypnotic brand power in the rep community. Nonetheless, best to keep it level-headed. You brought up solid points and sticking with that is the best way of helping to break that hypnosis, as it helps people to form an informed opinion instead of just blindly parroting a sentiment.

I got food poisoning from Tony Roma’s on my 8th birthday and all I got was a Happy Birthday sticker.

I am not joking. I have sticker PTSD.

Ok can we all get back on topic with ribs and stickers?

…Alright actually you’re on track please carry on but play nice.

I really looking forward to my APS 055 abd ZF V3 035.
Coming from the ZF 055 times where Seiko movemebts with no correct balance wheel I dont think so small details matter much for me like stickers/applied materials on a movement where the geara look even under a loupe (not microscope) spot on in terms of place, jewel color is also great.
I mean, I understand everyone that talks about the major diffa to a gen.

For me its just a 650usd Summer watch that I love and no one in my world will ever see in genuine, and if they WOULD care about my watches then I will talk about. Ewest rep versions transparent as usual.

Here is my GLed beauty

The point of high end reps is to 1) get as close as possible to gen 2) look nice. I would simply like to inform the users of rwi about objective facts of the matter. APSF simply looks better than ZF, no debate. If you need a microscope or a loupe to see the difference between apsf and zf i would suggest new glasses
