yes, looks like KW has better edge of sapphire, not so thick case while I was told ZF simply upscaled CAD project of SS case version, which is smaller. That's why side is higher than on KW.
I've been told the hands of KW are way too gold, and also the bezel insert has a visual problem on KW. So I am told by someone who has ZF, KW, and Gen.
Yes, probably KW hands are too yellow gold but saying that someone has KW, ZF an gen is wow... exaggeration at least 
Looking at ZF's: wrong strap, wrong bezel height, wrong lug holes positions... definitely place for introducing V2
Update:
Since there was a suspicion that KW hands are too gold and different to the gold color of indexes - well KW was right with it, I suppose (this is gen):

Uhm, is the gen even released yet?
Sounds like info coming from ZF themselves
yup the gens are out and here in asia stocks aplenty for sale too, a good bud of mine just bought his a few days back.
in all honesty, after seeing the 2 maker's V1 side by side, i feel the ZF one is much better built and has better finishing. i personally held my friend's gen and the bronze alloy "yellowish" color is rather spot on with ZF's pics here provided by Polonus. The gen isnt as redish brown as the PAM bronzo which maybe KW/V6 one is based on thou i might be wrong? i've ordered the ZF version and will do a short review on it.
I will put KW version (on the way to me) in ketchup to reset patina - then we will observe the color.
Pick your poison. Numerals vs hand color vs case shape.

Good eye, I'll bet you are right, it appears to be wider than the 22mm on the BB, when the watch was released I asked at ABTW about the strap size, never did get a reply.
All things considered Ive opted toward the KW, I have Sead sourcing one now...

I'm trying to hold out for the Black Bay Dark but I may need to snatch up a KW Bronzo. Looks pretty darn sweet to me.

Case lug holes are in different position too from KW and ZF
Anyone have gen to compare?
Now I wish I had the Gen. seems like they released in Asia before US. Not sure why but they released the Daytona in the US early.
I cant wait to see pics from members though! I might snag one just to see how the case feels. the ZF bronze does look more gen like though.
