I am between minds to go for the newer one and take the risk that it is not a super rep or go for the older GMF version.
You can ask your TD and he will tell you his opinion I think. Personally, I would go for what is out there for a while now. Try to find some more info on the GMF here in the forum. I'm sure people have bought it and shared their opinion on pros and cons.
Even Gen 216570 and 226570 are way different than you think. It's not only the little coronet between "swiss made" at 6 o'clock and other small visual details. It's a whole new movement.

Hint has few old JF v3 - gorgeous dial, hands and lume but terrible bezel. I ordered one and I am on the hunt for a Noob bezel

So if I understand correctly, the JF is the closest overall to the gen but we just need to swap out with a noob bezel to make it a super rep. Otherwise if a person does not want to mod, GMF would be the closest
