Saw that transplant not that long ago actually, but that was not what I have stuck in my head, this was years ago, there was no clone 3120 then. Im gonna remember eventually. Usually it pops up when I need it the least lol

@legend , and @Procurator point taken. Thanks for all the input on these and probably most likely will be selling these soon and take the funds and look into the JF 15703 diver V10 updated version.
Ok guys that might look stupid but would like to get feedback from more experienced users. I'm torn between 16202 and 15500. Don't like the pizza hand stack and it seems like 15500 has better movement. Will 41 work with this wrist span?

1. can you swap a 4302 zf movement into a zf 15500 with 9015?
2. if not can you put a DP dial on the 9015 zf 15500?
2. if not can you put a DP dial on the 9015 zf 15500?
You can do both. The inside of the case needs some modding to fit the 4302 movement into a 9015 case. But it is possible.

Is this the one to go for now?
The NWBIG consensual list shows the v10 JF version at the top of the list...
But is the ZF better?
I do not follow the NWBIG list and neither do I think that it’s “consensual”. It’s a weird term to use in a forum with 250k members.
In short if you want to know about which APS to buy then forget about the list and just ask what you want here. Yes the ZF diver is a lot. Better than the v10 IMHO.

I am about to place an order for Royal Oak Offshore Diver A2824, but I am torn between 2 choices:
So it comes down to which one of the above (v9 JF vs ZF) are better.
There are also the JF v9.5 and JF v10 to be considered.
Or should I ditch all of these and go for the 15720 BF MY9015 with A4308 which seems to have the date quick change?
(https://www.theonewatches.io/index....15720&description=true&sort=p.price&order=ASC)
Are there any major differences, or should I just go with the one that can come in faster or marginally cheaper?
Could really use some help before taking the final step.

Just found my answer earlier in the forum for ZF vs JF
But would still like folks to weigh in on the A2824 vs MY9015+A4308
There is no A4308 movement per se. There is the miyota decorated to look like one.
Another n00b question.
I gathered from all the help, research and DM's that ZF, APSF and to some extent JF are the best ones in the market today (for AP ROO 15703 A2824)
But I found some TD's selling the same from GF as well --> significantly lower priced (~$70-$80)
Has any of the forum members purchase the model from GF? how was the experience?
