Replica dials are make of plastic and painted in a way that matches what they perceive the genuine dial to look like and there is variation among batches.

Mate what are you on about? I havent seen a plastic dial in any rep in a long while except for some bullshit you get from some crap vendor

Honestly, the material isn't the point here. I guess the issue is the visual finish of the dials. Some of them look plasticky and cheap I can agree.

That was my point but apparently some people got offended. I’ve personally seen that JF AP dials are plastic because of a gen dial swap and bent the rep one in half like a thin plastic coin.

Do you guys prefer the 15202 to the 15400/15500 series because of it being 39mm? Or is it because of the detailing's on the watch?

I would like to rock the 15400/15500 but due to my tiny wrist, I only can opt for the smaller versions such as 15202 and 15450. However there is some elegance when it comes to smaller AP watches.

Agreed, I personally think the 15202 looks better than the 15500 because it has the text at both the 12 and 6 positions that fill up the tapestry a bit more. The look is a bit more balanced since everything on the 15500 is at the 12 o clock area. In terms of smaller AP watches, it's a lot about proportion at the end of the day - so whatever looks better on you will be the best bet!

I am itching for this updated version as well, but apart from a single user teasing, I haven't seen a single image/preview/announcement

New version is out. But only click on it if you like pizza.
Ugh. That is beyond disappointing. They could've kept the old movement if they'd have fixed the bloody XL pizza.

Love this quote from the listing: "updated small cannon as genuine". Yeah, nailed it - problem solved.

From the photos the clone looks as cheap as a Miyota. I was quite impressed when I serviced the 3135 clones from VSF/DanDong, but here it not that case. At least the rotor screws do not seem to be glued like in the older XF/ZF versions.
