That's genuine, I think what Kobe is referring to, is 9015 can be able to modified the balance wheel position as gen, that's why most of the new thin movements are using 9015.

Yes it is indeed a prototype, this is a dial for colour testing only, the final version will look drastically different than this, including the hour markers that you mentioned.

I’m not expert but it has the same look to me. I think they used cheapest method. I guess stamp method is cheaper, why bother with engraving which (maybe) better but give 10% better look to human eyes.
BTW I dont have both gen and this rep, I cant judge. Just what I guess
That is the 42mm model and the hour markers have a chapter ring around them in white gold. BP makes this version. The ZF dial that was uploaded is just a modification of the 5167 dial.

I think with Miyota the speculation is it will be around 10mm... hoping they get it down to at least 9mm (Gen being 8.5)
But lets see..

It's possible.
Btw since pp is pretty hot in the gen market, there are a lot of pp models coming out from multiple factories in the near future, and that's pretty exciting.
ZF aquanaut is pretty accurate, it'll be the best aquanaut to date as they really did pay real close attention to detail. (To be honest, no one is 100% sure about the release date, the date that TD or any insider gives is always estimated, since ZF can hold it up and launch it next year, so it's all depends on the factory decision. Besides, factories don't just focus on one product at a time, they tend to work on different brands and different product lines at the same time, so delay can happens)
However, I'm more excited about the future 5711 and 5712 competition among factories
