And I'm wondering if this is the promised dial update Angus talked about... [emoji51]

I think it is.
There is nothing else on the horizon.
He told that color of the dial will be changed, not the thickness or the movement.

There were some people spreading misinformation about completely new JF 15400 with thin case. It's all bullshit.
I decided to read (translator :) some Chinese forums and it's pretty easy to filter bullshit.

So is the current blue version the latest version? And no more updates planned (for the near future)?

Yeah, if that's true then JF really bullshitted us. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt for now and expect a real update to follow shortly. After all, why would they buy a gen AP for replication and then use an old faulty dial? Doesn't make sense...

However the current watch with the old pimple dial is not worth my money...

Just got QC pics for the JF blue dial, didn't like the position of the word "Automatic" in the dial. Might just request for a new one.

I have been searching the archive, I find a lot of references to, but never an explanation of what a pimple dial is. Can someone explain? Are V1 and V2 affected?

AP uses different sized tapisserie on their Royal Oaks: mini, regular, mega, etc. It seems JF used a mini-tapessie, quite common on smaller, older Royal Oaks like the 14790, on a few iterations of the black dial 15400. The size of the squares is too small for a 15400, the size of mere "pimples," as people here refer to it.

Ok thanks perfect! Now I wonder if mine (received last week) is the correct size or not... got to look outside an AP shop and try to compare mine without many people noticing ;)
