Hello guys,
I have a gen 3120 movement and a gen Bracelet. Can anyone tell me if this would fit on the JF V2?
Thanks in advance

have you compared the JF blue to the Gen blue?Thanks for the side by side mate. I own a JF 15400 blue dial with prof Xtal and it is amazing!!! I also performed the rotor silencing mod and it is now as quiet as a mouse. Its amazing to see how close to the gen it is. An acquaintance recently spotted my watch and asked if he could have a look (whilst on my wrist). He previously worked in a watch boutique and sold many APs. He did not believe me when I said to him it was a rep!!!!!!!He though it looked amazing. I absolutely love mine!!!!!
just curious of how close the color is.
also, does the JF have a black datewheel? i believe the gen has blue datewheel. correct me if i am wrong!
Saw the gen in Rome recently for those asking about the gold, here's an up to date reference in the flesh

I saw the pic you posted first, and was talking to myself "Wow, JF has really improved their minute markers."

!If your code is still good I would be very interested, as well. ty!

That why I wrote not 100%?
I think in a near future they will be almost-almost 100% but in a fear future wrist luxury watches won't be that popular.
There are less and less people buying them.
I think they are losing their cool factor and I think watch companies know that.

Hey buddy - what do you plan to install on your gen movement? Believe it or not, gen movements are easier to find these days than the right dials and hands for them! I am somewhat able to source quite a few AP spares and those 15400 dials and hands are quite hard to come by, and when you happen to come across something parts are extremely overpriced: 1500 for a second hand black dial, 3000 for a blue dial, etc.
Just a point if you haven't considered this - the case is the least of your problems I believe.
Good luck in your build anyways
Hello Tosoboso, thanks for your info. I have the origina movement, the original black dial and I can buy a set of original hands. I just eanted to know if this would fit in any of the cases of the reps. As I have that sitting on a box, i was thinking of making a franken, but I dont know if it's possible.
