Can the newly released XF V2 FC Diver 15706 be considered a super rep?

Sorry it was not to anyone in particular, or any watch, just in general if anyone is thinking to get a rep that’s all :) . Not here to offend any one, just stating my point of view ????????

No offense taken. APs in Asia are generally not as famous as Rolex, Longines or PP.
People you come across everyday won't know what it is on your wrist and how much it is supposed to be worth, especially the 15706. Many thought it was a fashion watch or sport watch that should be worth from $20 to $200.

Of course it would be safer if you drive BBA or a more expensive car.

Been out of the rep game for a while now.

I had a few really nice AP's in the past., but sold them all to help fund a small collection of gens and a few micro brands. Still felt the need for 1 really good AP rep. So....

Just ordered and paid for low beat option. lets see if it comes through

Hi all

I recently purchased two XF V2 15706 from two different TDs. Except they look different. I've spent hours trying to analyze them including checking all of the tells between v1 and v2 as well as even comparing to the JF version. It is just not clear to me which one of these is the real XF V2. It would be greatly appreciated if someone here could help. Thanks.

They are V2, the crystal and dial is obvious upgraded from V1 to V2.

V2 is released more than 3 batch.

It is funny the first XF FC v2 that came out had perfect crowns, almost identical to gen. Now the ones that come out have crowns the the AP doesn't line up to the flat edge of the rubber.

If you look at the top of the AP logo, on the Gen it is parallel to one of the flat sides of the rubber. On the rep it is not parallel with a flat side.

Just looked at the last picture. This isn't a low beat movement.

The crown thing can be fixed and it’s not hard.
I got an early batch.

The point here is that your TD is fooling you by giving you a 2824 inside instead of 2846. The beat is not right.

How do you fix the crown? I have one of the first XF FC out, my crown is perfect. Unfortunately my JF crowns are not lined up.

Didn't even see that. Thanks a lot for pointing that out.
Already rejected it, I'm hoping it was a mistake from the factory and they didn't even notice and they were not trying to fool me.
