Audio you must purchase first.

I am prepared to take the plunge for a 15400 JF, how do you guys request for QC photos ? I went to intime and was shown the "Add to cart" option only.

Lmao

why is the bracelet version and leather strap version same price? I'm still waiting blue dial on leather strap

 

[APGP89]

any comparison between J12 and gen?

 

[watchgurupz]

You can simply ask your TD to switch out the bracelet for a leather strap.

I don't understand why both versions are the same price?!! A JF bracelet would go around $180 while a complete strap buckle and links would go aroun $80. This doesn't make any sense at all! Feels like a rip off. IMO just by the bracelet and order the strap package on the side, way cheaper that way.

Has anyone ordered a JF RG 15400 with both bracelet and strap yet?

I wonder what the TDs would charge you for the "full package" since both individual options are priced the same...

You simply buy the watch on bracelet and pay an additional $65 for the shitty rep leather with plots and buckle.

Hey guys,

I just received QC pics of the JF. However I have a concern and need your input on it. I feel the case back, case and bezel is not properly aligned from the left side (picture attached). What do you say? Should I ask for a different piece? Or is this something minor that I should accept? How is this in the JF you have received.
Thanks

If it is just that (and it could be an angle issue), I will accept it. Might be more important to check DW alignment (ask for date 27 or 28) if not already done.

Really looking forward to seeing the new JF RG models once someone orders them!

 

[Miltiades]

I will place my order tomorrow, I'll keep you posted and will upload QC pictures when I get them

As was said before if that's the only issue(and if that bothers you then I'm sure there is no other issue) then I would accept this.

You'll be the only one that would ever even notice this. On the wrist you'll not see it.

EDIT:

I think one thread with your QC's is enough mate

Is anyone else's rotor really loud?

Not meaning to be rude but do some reading please.

Tony: I will try to answer your question as a staff working in a Gen watch distributor . The 9015 movement used in this rep winds in one direction, I can't remember if it's clockwise or anticlockwise. Movements with such designs tend to spin freely in the direction that does not engage the winding gear and spin with some resistance in the direction of that engages the winding gear. Due to the rotor's ability to turn freely in one direction, Any hand movement will cause the rotor to swing drastically hence the sound that many complain about. You can oil the rotor, but that will not help much.

The solution is to get a movement which winds in both direction such as eta 2824, 2836, Rolex calibres(dead quiet) or any of those eta clones. Due to the rotor being constantly engage in either direction, the rotor does not spin as freely and will cause less noise. Also, winding efficiency is higher on such movements.

Lastly, it will be good to Google miyota 9015 noisy rotor or even how movement works and do some reading as Hub have suggested.

It winds clockwise.
