But then again, these specific models tend to be overlooked by the factories if there isn't sale potential. I would love to know how this watch has been selling since the release.

And of course if that is the case we will never see the likes of a super clone AP Montoya

[MENTION=53647]rcom440[/MENTION] the JFM is no where near super rep quality due to the carbon fiber detailing. It is in no way the same feel or look as the real deal.

Carbon fiber is excellent. Flaws are pretty common with almost every ROO by JF which are date window, font, cyclops, also RG should be slightly more yellow. Other that that JPM is REALLY good rep.

Just a question,
I wore my JPM no more than 2 times and I noticed that Hours subdial is slightly off (subdial @6).
So I run chrono for around an hour and then reset it but hour does't reset.
Should it reset with no problems with other subdials?

You mean this from your photo in the other thread right? That happens with some of the movements. It should reset though however back to 12, if it doesn't it's prob the teeth or something that is off in the movement and you need a service. I forgot the exact part, my friend is an expert and mentioned it to me once.

Thanks for the info.
I think your blue dial has same problem. I've seen pic of it with @6 subdial off. That's how mine got after 3 weeks after I got it. if you run chrono you and try to reset it won't.
I won't be buying AP chronos anymore - the movement is total crap.

Just reset it with a good power reserve after running chrono. If it doesn't reset, have it serviced and it will be golden bro.

Mine looked the same but it didn't reset. Let me try it again and see what happens.

Push the chrono hand in very hard all the way to see if it resets

I did try it twice and it doesn't reset hr @6 subdial.
I'm wondering how much service will cost.
My watshmith charged me $159 to service Diver v7. I'm not sure if he will want to work on A7750 but he told me that he is willing to work on miyota so who knows.
If service will be 250-300 it doesn't make sense to service it as I can get new movement or sell that watch and add 200 or so and get new JPM or other JF chrono.

For an A7750 you are looking at around$250 for a service. I've got a Daytona seconds at 6 and mine was in that range for repairs. Mine had a similar issue with the minute subdial. Ended up being a poorly machined gear. Good news is it should be fixable and then you can safely run the chronograph.

Any news on further revisions? I'm 90% on getting the white dial version!
