CALIBRE DE CARTIER JJF VS Gen side By Side
- Thread starter Repworld
- Start date
Blue compared to black is not very accurate.
It is very different from the gen.
Bezel is a completely different color

nobody will ever notice, haven't seen many blue around even at ADs
myself I am really tempted by a blue on bracelet or a blue FF
I agree that many people will not notice this.
But 99% do not even know about this model, and in general most people do not know much about watches, not to mention the number of brands and models that exist at the moment.
Usually when you buy a watch for yourself, I want the color to match all the same, I personally like to wear watches that look the most like a Gen.
Especially in the last few years, production has gone very far ahead and there is plenty to choose from.

It comes with 23J movement and very noisy. Feels like metal and rocks grinding lol. Not ideal for a quiet environment. But after sending to watchsmith for oiling of bearing and rotor, it will solve this issue.
Gen feeling, very accurate and beautiful. Very comfortable on the wirst. Noise rotor, some lub later will be perfect.

bout it from TD and had issues right away so i sent it of to get it fixed. also came with 2 missing screws on the back which the TD sent me.
bezel was uneven but i took that apart and snapped it back in to secure it
loud manual winding
rotor is not working
so according to strodda.
"I have a feeling some or maybe all of that metallic sound you're hearing is the spring itself. This movement winds in a way I've never seen before. The rotor beating has an off center post and that post sits inside the center of the jewel. As the rotor turns, it shakes the center of the wish one and causes the teeth on the ends to move back and forth, making the ratchet wheel turn. Very poor design, IMO."

Geez, so many issues. Mine had loud rotor noise and I got my watchsmith to lubricate, noise level went down about 50%. Apart from that, everything else was ok. I hope you can get yours fixed soon. Its a nice looking watch.
