Is this the JF version for about $390? It looks fantastic! How is the plating on the watch? Does it look gen? Does it look like it will hold up good?
Yep this is the JF. The plating on the links is not great. Better than TF but not thick enough and no one does a wrapped version. However on the wrist no one is going to notice and it indeed looks better in real life. For me it is probably a keeper as I am very fond of it.
I would not expect the plating to last forever but if you look after them they last pretty well. I have gotten more than a year out of some without any signs of wear. The wrapped TTs do not seem to wear at all. My Daytona is probably 3-4 years old and looks new. I regularly treat them with Renaissance wax as it is non corrosive. I hope this helps to prolong them.
